Selection of a suitable installation location
Note
When choosing the installation location, bear in mind that the rear of the receiver should always be
accessible The receiver is equipped with a power saving circuit and a separate infra-red transmit-
ter, which means that the unit does not need to be placed where it is visible. You can therefore fit the
receiver out of sight in any location, eg on cupboard walls, side walls or the base of storage compart-
ments
The four screw sockets provided (see diagram on the next page) allow you to install the receiver not only
resting on a shelf but also to fix it there or in other positions.
In addition, the following points should be taken into account:
●
The wall thickness at the installation location must be at least 15 mm, as otherwise the screws will
break through on the other side or damage the surface
●
Ensure that the cupboard or storage compartment in which the unit is housed is adequately ventilated,
to prevent a build up of heat Carpet-covered walls are unsuitable for installation
●
Take care when tightening the screws not to damage any cables or similar behind or in the wall
● The receiver is designed for installation in exclusively dry, interior locations. The installation location
must be protected against moisture
●
The cable lengths must be taken into account when choosing the installation location
●
The connecting cables must be provided with strain reliefs
Ventilation
The heat generated within the receiver can be
dissipated from the following sides of the casing:
bottom, left, right and front When selecting the
installation location, make sure that these sides are
not obstructed or covered If the unit is operated
continuously with insufficient ventilation, this can
negatively affect the length of its working life!
Maintain a clearance of at least 20 cm above and
below the unit, 2 cm to either side and 5 cm behind
and in front of it, to allow unobstructed dissipation
of the heat generated

Important
Risk of damage to property The unit monitors its own temperature in operation Premature fail-
ure of the unit due to continuous operation at temperatures higher than the recommended oper-
ating temperature as a result of insufficient ventilation does not constitute grounds for a claim
