Safety instructions - important notes These two pages contain important information about the operation, installation location and connection of the unit. Read these instructions carefully before setting up the device. Mains power cable Danger! If the mains voltage is too high, there is a risk of fire! Make sure that the mains cable (power supply cable) is not damaged.
Safety instructions - important notes Installation location Do not place any objects on top of the unit. Unless stated to the contrary in the “Connection and setup” and “Installation” sections in the instructions supplied, maintain a clearance of at least 10 cm above the unit, 2 cm to either side and 5 cm behind the unit, to allow unobstructed dissipation of the heat generated. All electronic equipment generates heat. The temperature rise of this unit does however lie within the permissible range.
Safety instructions - important notes Product return/original packaging Please keep the original packaging in case you need to return the product at any time! The receivers are fragile due to their construction and are only adequately protected by the original packaging. If the receiver is not shipped correctly the guarantee/warranty on it will be voided. Fan/ventilation slots on the unit Make sure that the ventilation slots on the unit are not blocked or covered in any way.
