WARNINGS
Always disconnect your digital set-top unit from the power supply
before you connect it to (or disconnect it from) any other equipment.
The only way to disconnect your digital set-top unit from the power supply
is to remove the power lead. Your digital set-top unit must therefore be
installed near to the power point, which should be easily accessible.
The supplied power lead has a 2-way connector at one end and a
plug at the other. You should always insert the 2-way connector into
your digital set-top unit before you insert the plug into the power
supply.
Do not connect the plug to the power supply until you have made
ALL the other connections.
Your digital set-top unit operates with a 240 V AC, 50Hz power supply.
Do not connect it to a DC power supply.
If you are in any doubt about the power lead, its plug or its connection,
consult a qualified electrician.
