Safety instructions
Please read the safety instructions carefully before operating the
receiver.
Please follow all warnings and instructions on the equipment and in
the operating manual.
Basic safety instructions
Electrical connection
• Disconnect the receiver from the power source in case of
operational disruptions.
• Do not expose the receiver to rain or any kind of humidity to avoid
risk of fire and electric shock.
• Never open the casing. Otherwise, there is a risk of electric
shock.
• Connect the receiver only to a professionally installed mains
socket of 100-240V, 50-60Hz by means of the external power
pack or to a DC supply of 11V – max. 14V by means of the 12V
cable according to specifications.
• The total power consumption by the antenna connection of the
receiver “LNB IN” must not exceed 300 mA.
• Pull out the mains plug from the socket if the equipment is not in
use for a longer period of time. Only pull at the mains plug, not at
the cable.
• If foreign bodies or fluids enter the receiver, immediately pull out
the mains plug from the socket. Ask a qualified person to check
the equipment before operating it once again. Otherwise, there is
a risk of electric shock.
• Ensure that the power source (socket) is easily accessible.
• Do not bend or crimp the mains cable.
• Remove the protection films.
10
• In case of a storm, pull the external power pack or the 12V cable
of the receiver out of the mains socket. In case of a storm, pull the
LNB cable out of the receiver.
• If the mains cable is damaged, the receiver must be repaired by
an expert before reusing it. Otherwise, there is a risk of electric
shock.
• Never allow children to operate the receiver or to play with the
antenna unit unless supervised.
• Always ask qualified personnel to carry out maintenance jobs.
Otherwise, you will put yourself and others at risk.
• Modifications of the device lead to an extinction of the
manufacturer’s liability and guarantee obligation.
• Spare parts must be ordered directly from the manufacturer
Suitable location
• Avoid proximity to:
- heat sources, like e. g. heaters,
- naked flames, like e. g. candles,
- devices with strong magnetic fields, like e.g. loudspeakers.
- Never place receptacles filled with liquid (e. g. vases) on the
receiver
• Avoid direct sunlight and places with an extremely high amount of
dust.
• Never cover ventilation slits. Ensure adequate ventilation of the
receiver.
• Do not place any heavy objects on the receiver.
• Humidity may settle in the receiver if it is brought into hot
surroundings from a cold one. In this case, wait for about an hour
before operating the equipment.
• Arrange the mains and antenna cable in such a manner that noone can step or trip over them.
11
Correct battery handling
• Batteries may contain toxic agents. Ensure that batteries are not
within the reach of children. Children may eat and swallow
batteries.
• Batteries that are getting discharged may damage the remote
control. If the receiver is not in use for a longer period of time,
remove the batteries from the remote control.
• Batteries may contain toxic agents that are hazardous to the
environment. Therefore, dispose of the batteries immediately
according to the prevailing statutory regulations. Never throw the
batteries into normal household waste.
Disposal
Never throw the receiver or the batteries in normal
household waste. Ask your municipal authorities
or local government about different methods for
disposing of the equipment in an eco-friendly and
proper manner. Hand over used batteries to a
collection centre.
