•  Do not place the set-top box in an enclosed entertainment unit or cabinet
•  Do not place the set-top box on a soft surface such as a rug, sofa, bed or other  

similar surface

•  The set-top box should not be next to an external heat source that could raise  

the temperature of the unit

•  Connection into a surge protector along with your other audio/video equipment is  

highly recommended
