1 General safety instructions
Warning
Risk of death due to electric shock and risk of fires resulting from electric current. Please note the following points:
Power cable
●Make sure that the mains cable (power supply cable) is not damaged or does not become damaged.
●A unit with a damaged mains cable must be disconnected from the mains (unplug it at the socket) and repaired by an electrical specialist before being used again.
2 from 24
Power supply voltage
●Operate the unit only at the specified mains voltage. The mains voltage is shown on the rear of the unit or on the external power supply unit.
●The unit may only be connected to the mains and turned on once it has been connected to the antenna and to the TV set or the cable network and PC.
Accessibility of the mains socket
Position the unit close to an easily accessible mains socket so that you can switch off the power at any time if required.
Playing children
Make sure that children do not push any objects into the ventilation slots.
Cleaning
●Disconnect the mains plug before cleaning the unit.
●Never open the casing of the unit.
●Do not insert anything into the ventilation slots.
●Use a dry cloth for cleaning.
●Restrict cleaning to only the outer surface of the unit.
Ambient conditions
●The receiver and power supply unit are for indoor use only.
●The unit should be protected from damp, dripping water and splashing.
–Do not operate the unit in damp areas.
–Only use the unit in a moderate climate, not in tropical conditions.
–Do not place any vessels containing liquid (such as vases) on the unit.
Caution
Hazard due to electric shock and starting fires. Please note the following points:
Repair
Ensure that any repairs to your unit are carried out by qualified personnel.
●Improper work on the unit may jeopardise the electrical safety of the unit.
●The manufacturer accepts no liability for accidents caused by the user opening the unit.
●Opening the unit and attempting to repair it yourself will void any warranty claims.

General safety instructions
Earthing the antenna system
An incorrectly earthed antenna system can lead to overvoltage in the event of a lightning strike. Earth the antenna system in accordance with regulations or connect an equipotential bonding conductor. When doing so, comply with EN 60728/11 and national regulations where applicable.
Caution
Risk of corrosion and explosion of batteries. If your unit is supplied with batteries (for instance in the remote control), comply with the following points:
●Do not expose batteries excessively to sources of heat, direct sunlight or fire.
●Comply with the safety instructions stated on the batteries:
●Replace the batteries only with types that are identical or equivalent,
Important
Risk of damage to the unit. Please note the following points:
Incorrect connections to the ports
Improperly connected connections can lead to operating faults or defects in the unit.
Overheating
Comply with the following points, so that the heat generated in the unit is adequately dissipated.
●Unless stated to the contrary in the instructions supplied with the unit, maintain the following clearances around it: 10 cm above it, 5 cm behind it, 2 cm to either side.
●Never install the unit in a cupboard or on shelves with inadequate ventilation.
●Never cover or block the cooling slots on the unit or the fan (e. g. with other equipment, magazines, tablecloths, clothing or curtains).
●Do not place any objects on top of the unit.
●Do not place the unit close to sources of heat, and do not place naked flames, such as candles, on the unit.
●Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight.
Loss of data and software corruption if the receiver is disconnected from the mains whilst it is in use
Always switch the receiver into stand-by mode by pressing the stand-by button (on/ off) on the remote control, before disconnecting it from the mains. This ensures that any data that is new or has been changed will be saved by the receiver.
4 from 24
Long periods of absence or storms
●If you are going to be absent for a long time or if there is a storm, always switch off the unit at the mains (have first switched it into stand-by mode). Then pull the plug out of the mains socket, so as to totally disconnect the unit from the mains. This also applies to other equipment connected to the unit.
●We recommend also disconnecting the power cable and the antenna cable from the unit.
Further points
Effects of the heat generated by the unit
●All electronic equipment generates heat. The temperature rise of this unit lies within the permissible range. Sensitive furniture surfaces and veneers may however become discoloured by the effects of constant heat over time.
●The feet of the unit can cause changes to the colour of treated furniture surfaces. To avoid possible discoloration, place the unit on a suitable stable flat underlay.
Use of these instructions
●Read these instructions carefully before setting up the unit.
●Keep the instructions safe for future reference, and pass them on to any new owner.
Product return/original packaging
Please keep the original packaging in case you need to return the product at any time. Due to the nature of their construction receivers are fragile, and only the original packaging can be relied on to provide adequate protection. If the receiver is not shipped correctly the guarantee/warranty on it will be voided.
Updates
The information in this manual was correct at the time of going to press. However, we reserve the right to make changes at any time and without prior notice. If new software which affects the information in this manual (e. g. changes to the menus and/or functions) is released for your receiver, where we believe it necessary we will make available a new manual for download under www.kathrein.com.
Make a note of the basic settings that you make when setting up the receiver for the first time, so that you can restore them later if necessary.
