Safety instructions

Important notes for siting and installation.

Place of installation

Every electronic device generates heat. The rise in temperature, however, lies within a safe range. Slight colour changes may occur to sensitive furniture surfaces and veneers over the course of time due to the constant effect of heat. In conjunction with treated furniture surfaces, the unit’s rubber feet can likewise give rise to changes in colour. Where necessary place the unit on a suitable pad.

Ventilation

The heat that is generated in this unit is dissipated quite adequately. Never install the receiver in a cabinet, shelf or rack with inadequate ventilation. Never close off the cooling slots on the unit.

Do not place objects on top of the unit. Maintain a clearance of at least 10 cm above the unit so that the heat generated within the unit is conducted away without obstruction.

Humidity, exposure to sunlight, heat

Protect the unit against humidity, drips and splashing.

Do not place the unit close to radiators nor expose it to direct sunlight.

Mains voltage

Operate the receiver only from a 230V / 50 Hz mains voltage. The unit must not be connected to the mains and switched on until after the connections have been set up for the antenna and TV set.

Grounding

The parabolic antenna is to be grounded in accordance with regulations. The relevant local and/or German VDE regulations are to be complied with here.
