SAFETY INFORMATION (cont.)
Ventilation
Slots and openings in the casing of your set-top box are provided for
ventilation, to ensure reliable operation of your set-top box and to protect it
from overheating.
• Never block the ventilation openings
by placing your set-top box on
a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar
surface. Place it on a hard, flat
surface.
• Never cover the ventilation openings
with items such as newspapers,
table-cloths, or curtains.
• You can place your set-top box
near other consumer electronics
devices, such as stereo amplifiers or
televisions, but you must not place
it directly on top or underneath them.
• Do not place your set-top box in a built-in installation such as a bookcase
or rack unless proper ventilation is provided and you have adhered to the
manufacturer’s instructions.
•
Maintain a minimum distance of three inches around your
set-top box for sufficient ventilation.

Water and moisture
Do not expose your set-top box to rain or moisture, dripping or splashing,
and ensure that no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, are placed on
your set-top box. See also item 5 in the Important Safety Instructions.
Entry of objects and liquids
Never push objects of any kind into your set-top box through openings as
they may touch dangerous voltage points or short-out parts that could result
in fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on your set-top box.
Replacement parts
When replacement parts are required, be sure that the service technician has
used replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or that have the same
characteristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in
fire, electric shock or other hazards. See also item 14 in the Important Safety
Instructions.
Safety check
Upon completion of any servicing or repairs to your set-top box, ask the
service technician to perform safety checks to determine that your set-top
box is in its proper operating condition. See also item 14 in the Important
Safety Instructions.
