IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

 Read these instructions.
 Keep these instructions.
 Heed all warnings.
 Follow all instructions.
 Do not use this apparatus near water.
 Clean only with dry cloth.
 Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the

manufacturer’s instructions.

 Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers,

stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

 Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A

polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding
type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or
the third prong is provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit
into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete
outlet.

 Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at

plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the
apparatus.

 Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
 Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long

periods of time.

 Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when

the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as the power supply cord
or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the
apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not
operate normally, or has been dropped.

IMPORTANT SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS FOR ALL SET-TOPS

 The mains plug is the main disconnect device. It shall remain readily

accessible and operable.

 The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and no objects

filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus.

 WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this

apparatus to rain or moisture.

 WARNING: Batteries shall not be exposed to excessive heat such as

sunshine, fire or the like.

 See label on bottom of unit for additional markings.

During Transportation to the Subscriber Home

 Transport the cable terminal in its shipping box or an equally padded

container.

 Do not expose the terminal to rain or moisture.

During Installation

 Do not place the terminal in an enclosed area where the cooling vents are

blocked or impede the flow of air through the ventilation openings.

 Install the terminal so that its position does not interfere with its proper

ventilation. For example, do not place the terminal on a bed, sofa, rug, or
similar surface that could block the ventilation openings.

 Install the terminal so that there is a minimum of two inches of space

between surrounding surfaces and the top, left, and right sides of the
terminal to ensure proper ventilation.

 Install the terminal away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers

and stoves. Installation of the terminal near consumer electronics devices,
such as stereo receiver/amplifiers and televisions, is permitted as long as
the air surrounding the terminal does not exceed 40º C (104º F).

 Place the terminal on a flat surface not prone to vibration or impact.
 Do not place the terminal on top of another electronic device.
 Do not install the terminal in an area where condensation occurs.
 To prevent the temporary loss of guide data and cause a temporarily non-

responding terminal, do not plug the AC power cord into a switched power
outlet.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS FOR DVR MODELS

 To avoid shock and vibration damage to the internal hard drive, do not

move the terminal while it is plugged in.

 To allow the hard drive to spin down and park its heads, wait at least 10

seconds after disconnecting power before moving the terminal.

 Install the terminal so that there is a minimum of 3 inches of space between

surrounding surfaces and the back of the terminal to ensure proper
ventilation.
