Precautions
On Safety q If you spill or drop anything into the cabinet, unplug the Digital
Satellite Receiver and have it checked by qualified personnel
before operating it any further.
q Operate the Digital Satellite Receiver only on 120 V AC.
q For detailed safety precautions, see the “Important Safeguards”
leaflet that came with the Digital Satellite Receiver.
On Power Sources q The Digital Satellite Receiver continues to draw power from the
AC power source as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even
if the Digital Satellite Receiver itself has been turned off.
q If you are not going to use the Digital Satellite Receiver for a long
time, be sure to disconnect the Digital Satellite Receiver from the
wall outlet and cancel your programming subscription. To
disconnect the AC power cord, grasp the plug itself; never pull the
cord.
q To further protect the Digital Satellite Receiver from damage
caused by lightning or power surges, connect a power surge
protector to your telephone line, AC power cord, and external
antennas.
q One blade of the plug is wider than the other for the purpose of
safety and will fit into the wall outlet only one way. If you are
unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, contact your dealer.
q If the AC power cord gets damaged and needs to be replaced, have
it done at a qualified service shop only.
On Placement q Place the Digital Satellite Receiver in a location with adequate
ventilation to prevent heat build-up in the Digital Satellite Receiver
and prolong the life of the Digital Satellite Receiver.
q Do not place the Digital Satellite Receiver in a location where it will
be exposed to extreme hot or cold temperatures. Avoid direct
sunlight and do not place near heat sources.
q Do not place the Digital Satellite Receiver in a location subject to
excessive dust or mechanical vibration. Protect from vibration at all
times.
q Do not place anything on top of the Digital Satellite Receiver,
which might block the ventilation holes and cause malfunctions.
q Before connecting other components, be sure to turn off and
unplug the Digital Satellite Receiver.
On Cleaning q Clean the cabinet, panel, and controls with a soft cloth slightly
moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use any type of
abrasive pad, scouring powder, or solvent such as alcohol or
benzine.
On Repacking q Keep the original cartons and packing materials to safely transport
the equipment in the future.
