While the s ystem is operating a fai nt motor sound can be heard , this is normal.
Satellit e reception is only pos sible when the dome is posi tioned so that it has dir ect line of sight in the di rection of the desire d satellite and there a re no obstructions b locking the view, e.g. tre es, buildings.
The signal re ceiving performa nce of the system may dec rease with heavy ra infall or snowfall. T he same result may occur if th e antenna is covered wit h snow. In such a case, gentl y remove the snow from the an tenna cover.
Dirt on the d ome may decrease the signa l receiving perfor mance over a period of tim e. To preven t decrease of perform ance gently clean the an tenna cover periodica lly.
Do not use abras ive cleaners as they may da mage the product’s sur faces.
Do not use sol vent based cleaning agen ts on plastic part s.
To turn off the s ystem press power bu tton on the front pane l of the receiver or “STAN DBY” button on the remote cont rol handset. The LED on t he front panel will go out a nd the system swit ches off.
