Safety Instructions
DANGER
Danger to life from electric shock when touching electrical installations!
►
Wall mounting: before drilling holes, make sure that there is no electrical wiring in the wall.
Danger to life when installing/operating the unit in inappropriate ambient conditions!
Moisture in the unit can lead to electric shock or fi re hazard due to spark formation.
►
Install and operate the unit indoors in dry areas only.
►
Do not install/place the unit on highly fl ammable surfaces.
►
Comply with the safety requirements of the latest edition of the standard EN 60065.
►
Protect the device from moisture, dripping and splash water.
►
Do not place the antenna close to heaters or open fi re, e.g. candles.
►
Do not subject the antenna to direct sunlight outdoors for longer periods of time.
CAUTION
Risk of suff ocation due to small parts that could be swallowed!
►
Keep any mounting material out of reach of children.
NOTICE
Risk of material damage due to incorrect supply voltage!
When connected to a receiver or TV that is not suitable for DVB-T/T2, e.g. a satellite receiver, the antenna could be dest-
royed due to an excessive supply voltage.
►
Operate the antenna only at the permitted voltage of 5 V.
NOTICE
Risk of discolouration on furniture surfaces!
The feet of the unit can cause changes to the colour of the sensitive or treated furniture surfaces.

If necessary, place the antenna on a suitable mat.
Setting up, Connecting and Commissioning
1. Connect the antenna to the receiver/TV set using the provided coaxial
cable.
Tip
You can set up the antenna independently from the
polarisation of the radiated signals. The lettering (hori-
zontal/vertical) on the front of the antenna is intended
for optimising in critical reception systems, see
Opti-
mising, p. 5
.
2. Connect the receiver to the TV set. For more information about the connec-
tion, refer to the user manual of your receiver.
3. Turn on the receiver.
4. Switch the TV to the AV mode if the TV set does not switch to it automatically.
5. Using the set-up menu of the receiver, make sure that the power supply to the antenna via the coaxial cable is switched on.
➯
The reception of DVB-T/T2 programmes is possible.
Optimising
If the reception is subject to interference, it is possible to improve the reception
quality in critical reception systems by changing the polarisation alignment,
see the lettering on the front of the antenna.
If it is impossible to get optimum reception:
►
Set the antenna up in a diff erent place or repeat the steps described above.
We recommend placing the antenna close to a window.
Tip
In the immediate vicinity of the transmitter, reception
might be impaired by too high a reception level. In
this case, it is recommended to avoid setting up the
antenna near a window.
