Important notes for siting and installation

Place of installation

Every electronic device generates some heat. The rise in temperature, however,
lies within safe limits. Nevertheless, this does not rule out the possibility of slight
colour changes to sensitive furniture surfaces and veneers over the course of time
due to the constant effect of heat.

In conjunction with treated furniture surfaces, the unit‘s rubber feet can likewise
give rise to changes in colour. Where necessary, place the unit on a suitable pad.

Ventilation

The heat that is generated in this unit is dissipated quite adequately. Never install
the receiver in a cabinet, shelf or rack with inadequate ventilation. Never close-off
the openings on the unit that are intended for heat dissipation.

Do not place objects on top of the unit. Maintain a clearance of at least 10 cm
above the unit so that the heat generated within the unit is convected away without
obstruction.

Mains voltage

Run the receiver only from a mains voltage of 230V / 50Hz
The unit is not to be connected to the mains until after all installation work has been
carried out properly.

Humidity

Protect the unit against humidity, drips and splashes.

Solar radiation/heat

Do not place the receiver close to radiators nor expose it to direct sunlight.

Grounding

The parabolic antenna is to be grounded in accordance with regulations. Here, the
relevant German VDE regulations (or equivalent) are to be observed.
