DSR 9401 FT A / DSB-9401F / DSB-9401V

VENTILATION: Do not block the STB ventilation holes. Ensure that free airflow

is maintained around the STB. Never store the STB where it is exposed to direct sunlight or near heating euipment e.g. a radiator. Never stack other electronic equipment on top of the STB. Place the STB at least 30mm from the wall.

ATTACHMENTS: Do not use any attachment that is not recommended by the

manufacturer; it may cause a hazard or damage the equipment.

CONNECTION TO THE SATELLITE DISH LNB:

The LNB connector cable has voltage in its center core. It is therefore recommended that the STB be disconnected from the mains power before connecting or disconnecting this cable. FAILURE TO DO SO COULD DAMAGE THE LNB.

SERVICING: Do not attempt to service this product yourself.

Any attempt to do so will make the warranty invalid. Refer all servicing to a qualified service agent.

LIGHTNING: If the STB is installed in an area subject to intense lightning

activity, protection devices for the STB mains connector and modem telephone line are essential. The individual manufacturer’s instruction for safeguarding other equipment, such as TV set, Hi-Fi, etc., connected to the STB must also be followed during lightning storms.

GROUNDING: The ground of the LNB cable must be directly connected to the

system ground for the satellite dish. The grounding system must comply with local regulations

NNoottee :Dispose the used batteries at designated place for environment protection
