Installation - Precautions
Following receipt of your TV card, allow it to warm to room temperature before starting the
installation procedure to avoid the risk of an electrical short circuit. High temperatures
and/or variations in humidity can cause condensation, which can lead to an electrical short.
Site your PC on a flat, stable, vibration-free surface to avoid the risk of accident and injury.
Damage from electrical shock can be avoided only if ALL cables to external devices,
telephone networks and mains power are disconnected.
Most damage is caused by lightning strikes to telephone networks and spikes in mains
voltage.

Electromagnetic Compatibility
The guidelines for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) must be observed at all times when
connecting the TV card.
A minimum distance of 40 inches should be maintained from TVs, mobile phones, speaker
cabinets, etc. to avoid high frequency and magnetic interference.
5
Cleaning
The TV card does not require cleaning under normal operation.
In the unlikely event that cleaning is required ensure all power connectors and mains cables
are properly disconnected.
The TV card has no serviceable parts. Protect it from contamination (see Safety
Considerations above) and do not use solvent, caustic or gaseous cleaning agents.
If necessary, the external connectors of the TV card can be cleaned with a soft, dry anti-static
cloth.
