INSTALLATION AND SAFETY
_______________________
In order that you may enjoy this high-quality and comfortable satellite receiver
for a long time it is very important that you observe the following points when
installing the receiver.
This satellite receiver is intended for the reception of TV picture and sound
signals. Any other application is expressly prohibited.
If the receiver is exposed to drastic temperature changes, for example when
taking it from a cold to a warm place, connect it to the mains supply and let it
stand at the new place for at least two hours.
Do not expose the satellite receiver to any moisture.
The receiver is intended for use in dry rooms. If you wish to operate it in the
open air, make absolutely sure that it is protected against moisture (rain,
splashes of water).
Do not place any object filled with water (vases and similar) on the receiver.
The object might fall over and the liquid spilling into the unit would impair its
electrical safety.
Do not place the receiver in the immediate vicinity of a heat source or in direct
sunlight as this would prevent appropriate cooling.
Place the receiver on a flat and hard surface. Do not place any objects (e.g.
newspapers) on the receiver.
If placed on a wall-mounted unit, the all-round distance between the receiver
and the sides of the wall unit must be at least 10 cm!
Thunderstorms are a danger for any electrical appliance. Even when switched
off, the receiver might be damaged by lightning striking the mains supply
and/or the antenna lead. During a thunderstorm you must always disconnect
the mains and antenna plugs.
Never open the receiver. Damage caused by unqualified work is not covered by
the manufacturer’s guarantee.
