SAFETY AND INSTALLATION TIPS

SAFETY AND INSTALLATION TIPS

1.Instructions

Ready carefully through the safety- and oper- ating instructions before switching the unit on.

2.Supply-voltage

Operate the Receiver only from a supply volt- age of 230 V and 50 Hz supply frequency. The unit is not be connected up to the supply before the installation work is completed.

3.During thunderstorms, or before long periods of absence, always switch the unit off at the power switch on the unit.

4.Grounding

The parabolic antenna must be correctly grounded in accordance with regulations. The relevant regulations must be complied with (i.e. VDE in Germany or equivalent elsewhere).

5.LNB-supply-voltage

If the feeder system (LNB) is going to be sup- plied from an external supply voltage, the LNB supply on the receiver must be set to "Off" (see Basic Setting Menu). Otherwise there is a risk that the receiver may be destroyed.

6.Installation

All electronic equipment gives off a certain amount of heat simply as a matter of physics. The heat generated lies within a safe range however. Slight changes in the surface color of delicate furniture and veneers cannot however be excluded when subject to the constant ef- fects of heat over a prolonged period. Color changes can similarly be brought about due to contact between the rubber feet on the unit and treated furniture surfaces. Therefore in critical cases place the unit on a suitable underlay.

7.Ventilation

The heat generated in this unit will be dissi- pated satisfactorily. Never install the receiver unit in a cupboard, stand or rack where there is inadequate ventilation.

Never close-off those openings in the unit that were specially designed to dissipate heat out of the unit.

Do not place objects on the unit.

Maintain a clearance of at least 5 cm above the unit, so that the heat generated within the unit is carried away without any hin- drance.

8.Humidity

Guard the unit against humidity, drips and splashes.

9.Do not place the receiver close to radiators or place in a position exposed to direct sunlight.

10.Pay attention that children do not insert objects into the ventilation slits.

Risk of an accident.

11.Cleaning

Withdraw the power plug before cleaning the unit. Use a damp cloth to clean the unit.

12.Repairs

Repairs and adjustments to your receiver should only be carried out by qualified special- ists. An unauthorized opening of the unit auto- matically incurs the loss of any guarantee.
