Please read these safety instructions through carefully, before operating the receiver. Please observe all warnings and instructions on the equipment and contained in these operating instructions.

Basic safety instructions

Electrical connections

To avoid fire and danger of electric shock, do not expose the
receiver to rain or in other moisture.
Never open the housing. (Danger of electric shock).
Only connect the receiver to a 90–250 V, 50–60 Hz power socket
which has been correctly installed by trained personnel.
The plug must be easily accessible, so that in an emergency the
receiver can be disconnected from the power supply quickly and easily.
Pull the plug out of the socket if the equipment is not used over a
long period of time. Only pull out by the plug.
Avoid exposing the receiver to drops or spraying water. Do not
stand any containers holding liquid s (a vase, for example) on or over the receiver . (Danger of electric shock).
If foreign bodies or liquids enter the receiver, then immediately pull
the plug from the socket. Have properly-trained personnel check the equipment, before operating again. (Danger of electric shock).
The total power input at the receiver’s antenna connection marked
“ANT INPUT“ may not exceed 400 mA.
Do not bend or squash the power cable.
Do not touch the power cable with wet hands. (Danger of electric
shock).
If the power cable is damaged, it must be repaired by
properly-trained personnel before operating again. (Danger of electric shock).
Never allow children to use the receiver without supervision or to
play with the antenna equipment.

3BSafety instructions
Always leave maintenance work to properly-trained personnel, not
to do so could be dangerous.
Disconnect the receiver from the power source if operating
breakdown occurs.

Correct positioning

Stand the receiver on a firm, level surface.
Avoid the proximity of sources of heat, for example, radiators,
open fires, for example, candles, equipment with strong magnetic fields, for example, loudspeakers.
Avoid direct sunlight and unusually dusty or humid locations.
Avoid shaking the receiver.
Never cover up the ventilation slits. See that there is adequate
ventilation. Do not stand any heavy objects on the receiver.
If the receiver is brought from a cold into a warm environment,
moisture can form in the interior of the receiver. In this case, wait around two to three hours before operating.
Lay the power and antenna cables so that no-one can trip over or
tread on them
The correct handling of batteries
Batteries can contain poisonous substances, which can harm the
environment. Dispose of the batteries in accordance with the current legal requirements. Never dispose of the batteries in normal domestic refuse.

Description

With this equipment digital satellite channels can be received using a satellite antenna. The receiver does not need to be programmed, all programmes transmitted at the time of delivery over the Astra, Hotbird and Turksat satellites are already pre-programmed.
The channels transmitted by a satellite can be received as soon as the receiver is connected up to an antenna pointing at a satellite. The receiver searches for the channels as soon as the automatic search function for this satellite is started.
All functions of the receiver can be operated using the remote control. All receiver settings can easily be effected by means of the menu on the TV screen. The on-screen menu supports the following languages:
German,
English,
Arabic,
French,
Italian,
Russian,
Spanish
Turkish,
Farsi,
Dutch,
Greek and
Hungarian.
The receiver can update software over the Astra satellite.

Connecting up the receiver

The receiver is connected by means of an LNB cable to the connection socket of the satellite antenna. Before connecting the receiver an LNB cable may have to be installed.
L
An LNB cable is not supplied.
Danger!
The braided sheath and the internal conductor of the LNB cable are under current during operation. Whilst operating, do not touch the LNB cable. (Danger of injury through electric shock!)

6BOverview of the equipment

Installing the LNB cable

For installing an IF plug on the co-axial cable wire strippers and cutting pliers will be required.
Cut off 8mm co-axial cable down to the internal core at both ends. Carefully cut 10mm of external isolation material off, so that the
braided sheath is showing.
Turn back the braided sheath and turn it over the outer isolation
material, ensuring that it does not touch the internal core
Remove the internal isolation material up to 2mm before the
braided sheath.
Turn the IF plug onto the turned-back braided sheath until the plu g
meets the internal isolation material..
L
The braided sheath should not protrude behind the end of the plug.
Shorten the internal core with cutting pliers, so that it protrudes at
most 1mm out of the plug.
Connection of a SCART cable
Screw the IF plug of the LNB cable on to the receiver’s antenna
input marked “ANT INPUT“.
Plug the SCART cable into the receiver’s SCART connection
marked “TV“.
Connect the SCART cable with the TV set. Observe the operating
instructions of the TV set.
If a video cassette recorder is to be connected, then plug a
SCART cable in the receiver’s SCART connection marked “VCR”.
Connect the SCART cable with the video cassette recorder.
Observe the operating instructions of the video cassette recorder.
If a music centre is to be connected, then plug the cinch cable in
the receiver’s sockets marked “AUDO R” and “AUDIO L”.
