Safety notes
For your own protection you should read the safety notes care- fully before proceeding to operate your new receiver.
The manufacturer accepts no liability for damage caused by careless and irresponsbile handling, or by
>The receiver is equipped with a fully integrated hard drive. There is no provision for the hard drive to be repla- ced or exchanged, unless specifically authorised by TechniSat. Any unauthorised replacement of the hard drive will result in TechniSat no longer guaranteeing that the receiver still complies with legal requirements (e.g. appliance and product safety laws, law on the electro- magnetic safety of appliances). The „CE approval“ will thus no longer be valid. If an altered product is sold onward, the person who effected the alteration or change becomes the manufacturer in legal terms, and is respon- sible as such. In addition, the TechniSat guarantee will become null and void, and there may be a loss of war- ranty rights.
>To ensure adequate ventilation, place the receiver on a smooth, horizontal surface and do not place any objects on top of the receiver, as ventilation slots are located here to allow heat to be dissipated from the interior of the unit.
>Do not place any burning objects, such as burning cand- les, on top of the receiver.
>Do not subject the receiver to water droplets or water spray, and do not place any obkects filled with liquid, such as vases, on top of the receiver.
>Operate the receiver only in a temperate climate.
>Do not open the reciever housing under any circumstan- ces! You are in danger of receiving an electrical shock. If it is necessary to effect repairs in the receiver, these should only be carried out by trained and qualified service person-
nel.
In the following cases you should disconnect the receiver from the mains power, and should consult an expert:
>the mains cable or the mains plug are damaged
>the receiver was exposed to liquid, or liquid has run into the unit
>in case of severe malfunctions
>in case of significant external damage
