Safety instructions

Please read the safety instructions carefully before operating the receiver. Please follow all warnings and instructions on the equipment and in the operating manual.

Basic safety instructions

Electrical connection

 Separate the receiver from the power source in case of

operational disruptions. Please note: The receiver will remain live, even if it is turned off with the mains switch on the rear side.

 Do not expose the receiver to rain or any kind of

humidity to avoid risk of fire and electric shock.

 Never open the casing. Otherwise, there is a risk of

electric shock.

 Connect the receiver only to a professionally installed

mains socket of 100–240 V~, 50–60 Hz.

 The total power consumption by the antenna

connection of the receiver “LNB IN” must not exceed

300 mA.

 Pull out the mains plug from the socket if the

equipment is not in use for a longer period of time. Only pull at the mains plug, not at the cable.

 In case of storms pull out the mains plug of the

receiver from the socket.

 In case of a storm, loosen the LNB cable from the

receiver.

Caution!

Note regarding separation from the mains supply. The Standby key of this device does not separate the device completely from the mains supply. In addition, the device consumes current in standby mode. To

 If foreign bodies or fluids enter the receiver,

immediately pull out the mains plug from the socket. Ask a qualified person to check the equipment before operating it again. Otherwise, there is a risk of electric shock.

 Ensure that the power source (socket) is easily

accessible.

 Do not bend or crimp the mains cable.  If the mains cable is damaged, the

receiver must be repaired by an expert before reusing it. Otherwise, there is a risk of electric shock.

 Never allow children to operate the receiver or to play

with the antenna unit unless supervised.

 Always ask qualified personnel to carry out

maintenance jobs. Otherwise, you are putting yourself and others at risk.

 Disconnect the receiver from the power source in case

of operational disruptions.

 Spare parts must be ordered directly from the

manufacturer

 Modifications of the device lead to an extinction of the

manufacturer’s liability.

 Remove the protection films.

separate the device completely from the mains supply, the mains plug must be pulled out of the socket.

Suitable location

 Place the receiver on a stable and even base.  Avoid proximity to:

- heat sources, like e. g. heaters,

- naked flames, like e. g. candles,

- devices with strong magnetic fields, like e.g.

loudspeakers.

- Never place receptacles filled with liquid (e. g. vases) on the receiver

 Avoid direct sunlight and places with an extremely high

amount of dust.

 Never cover ventilation slits. Ensure adequate

ventilation of the receiver.

 Do not place any heavy objects on the receiver.  Humidity may settle in the receiver if it is brought into

hot surroundings from a cold one. In this case, wait for about an hour before operating the equipment.

 Arrange the mains and antenna cable in such a

manner that no-one steps or trips over them.

Correct battery handling

 Batteries may contain toxic agents. Ensure that

batteries are not within the reach of children. Children may eat and swallow batteries.

 Batteries that are getting discharged may damage the

remote control. If the receiver is not in use for a longer period of time, remove the batteries from the remote control.

 Batteries may contain toxic agents. Therefore, dispose

of the batteries immediately in an ecologically accepted manner according to the prevailing statutory regulations. Never throw the batteries into normal household waste.

 Never expose the batteries to open fire or strong heat,

as otherwise there is a danger of explosion.

 Replace the batteries always by batteries of the same

type.



The coaxial cable is not included in the scope of supply.

Caution!

Connect the receiver to the mains supply only after you have connected it to all equipment and the antenna properly. Otherwise, the receiver can suffer damages. The wire netting and the inner core of the coaxial cable carry current during operation.

Connecting the receiver

The receiver is connected with your satellite antenna by means of a coaxial cable. If necessary, you have to prepare a coaxial cable before connecting the receiver.



When stripping the isolation, neither the inner core or the foil nor the wire netting must be damaged.

Caution!

The wire netting and the foil must not touch the inner core. The foil must enclose the inner insulation and must not be damaged.



The wire netting must not protrude from the back of the connector end.

LNB cable installation

(cp. installation diagram on the next page) For the installation of the F connector on the coaxial

cable you will need a knife (ideally a wire stripper) and side cutting pliers.

 Cut 8 mm of the coaxial cable at each end up to the

inner core.

 Carefully cut 10 mm of the outer insulation so that the

wire netting is exposed.

 Turn the wire netting backwards and wind it over the

outer insulation in such a manner that it does not touch the inner core.

 Remove the inner insulation together with the foil

placed over it up to 2mm before reaching the wire netting.

 Rotate the F connector onto the turned-back wire

netting until the connector touches the inner insulation.

 Cut the inner core with a cable cutter in such a manner

that it projects maximum 1 mm from the connector.

Installation diagram

 Fasten the F connector of the coaxial cable onto the

“LNB IN” antenna connection of the receiver. Fasten the other end of the coaxial cable on the LNB.



The HDMI cable is not included in the scope of supply.

Connection with the HDMI cable

 Insert the HDMI cable in the HDMI socket of the

receiver.

 Connect the HDMI-Kabel to the TV set. Follow the

operating manual of the TV set.

 Insert the Scart cable in the Scart socket “VCR” of the

receiver if you want to connect a video set.

 Connect the SCART cable with the video set. Follow

the operating manual of the video set.

 Insert the Cinch connector of the Cinch cable in the

“AUDIO-R” and “AUDIO-L” sockets of the receiver if you want to connect a stereo system.
