y Antenna Isolator Installation Guide

- Use this to install TV in a place where there is a voltage difference between TV Set and GND of antenna signal.

» If there is a voltage difference between TV Set and GND of antenna signal, the antenna contact

might be heated and excessive heat might cause an accident.

- You can improve the safety when watching TV by efficiently removing power voltage from TV antenna. It is recommended to mount the isolator to the wall. If it cannot be mounted to the wall, mount it on the TV. Avoid disconnecting the antenna Isolator after installation.

- Before starting, be sure that the TV antenna is connected.

Cable / Antenna

Connect one end of the isolator to cable/antenna jack and the other to TV set or set-top box.

“Equipment connected to the protective earthing of the building installation through the mains connection or through other equipment with a connection to protective earthing - and to a cable

distribution system using coaxial cable, may in some circumstances create a re hazard. Connection to

a cable distribution system has therefore to be provided through a device providing electrical isolation below a certain frequency range (galvanic isolator, see EN 60728-11)”

Isolator

1. Connect to TV.

2. Connect to Set-Top box.

When applying the RF Isolator, a slight loss of signal sensitivity can occur.

NOTE

y The TV can be placed in standby mode in order to reduce the power consumption. And the TV

should be turned off if it will not be watched for some time, as this will reduce energy consumption.

y The energy consumed during use can be significantly reduced if the level of brightness of the

picture is reduced, and this will reduce the overall running cost.

CAUTION

Do not step on the glass stand or subject it to any impact. It may break, causing possible injury

from fragments of glass, or the TV may fall. Do not drag the TV. The floor or the product may be damaged.

Some models have a thin film attached on to the screen and this must not be removed.
