Safety instructions and precautions
1. Mains supply
a) Operate this box only from the type of
power supply indicated on the marking
label. If you are not sure of the type of
power supplied to your home, consult your
local power company.
b) Disconnect the box from the mains
before you start any maintenance or
installation procedures.
2. Overloading
Do not overload a wall outlet, extension
cord or adapter as this may result in fire or
shock.
3. Liquid
The box should not be exposed to liquid of
any kind. In addition, no objects filled with
liquid should be placed on the box.
4. Cleaning
a) Disconnect the box from the wall outlet
before cleaning.
b) Use a light damp cloth (no solvents) to
dust the box.
5. Ventilation
a) The ventilation slots on the box must be
left uncovered to allow proper airflow.
b) Do not stand the box on soft furnishings
or carpets.
c) Do not stack other electronic equipment
on top of the box.
6. Attachments
Do not use any unsupported attachments
as these may be hazardous or cause
damage to the box.
7. Lightning storm or not
in use
Unplug the box from the wall outlet
and disconnect the aerial during a
thunderstorm or when it will be left
unattended and unused for long periods of
time. This will prevent damage to the box
due to lightning and power surges.
8. Extraneous objects
Do not insert anything through the openings
in the box, where they can touch dangerous
voltage points or damage parts.
9. Replacement of parts
When replacement of parts is required, be
sure the service technician uses replacement
parts specified by the manufacturer or those
that have the same characteristics as the
original part. Unauthorised substitution may
result in additional damage to the unit.
10. Connection to the
aerial
Disconnect the box from the mains before
connecting or disconnecting the cable from
the aerial. Failure to do so can damage the
aerial.
11. Connection to the TV
Disconnect the box from the mains before
connecting or disconnecting the cable from
the TV. Failure to do so can damage
the TV.
12. Location
a) Place the box indoors to avoid exposing it
to lightning, rain or sun. Do not place it near
a radiator or heater.
b) We recommend the box has 10cm
clearance from any other appliances
susceptible to electromagnetic influences,
such as a TV or a VCR.
c) Do not block the openings and do not
place the box on a bed, sofa, rug or other
similar surface.
d) If you place the box on a rack or a
bookcase, ensure there is adequate
ventilation and that you have followed the
manufacturer’s instructions for mounting.
e) Do not place the box on an unstable cart,
stand, tripod, bracket or table where it can
fall. A falling box can cause serious injury,
and serious damage to the appliance.
