For your safety
Your set-top box has been manufactured to meet international safety standards, but you must
take care if you want to obtain the best results and operate it safely . It is important that you
read this booklet completely, especially the safety instructions below .
If you have any doubts
about the installation, operation or safety of your set-top box, please consult your dealer. The model
number, serial number and electrical rating of this set-top box are on a label on its base .
WARNING!
Remember that contact with 230 V AC mains can be lethal or can cause a
severe electric shock. To avoid this risk:
Never remove the top cover from the 12 V power-supply unit, as there
are high-voltage live parts inside. There are no user-serviceable parts
inside this power-supply unit.
Never remove the top cover from your set-top box. There are no user-
serviceable parts inside it. On the base of your set-top box there is a
tamper-evident label that states “Warranty void if broken or removed”.
Make sure that all electrical connections are properly made.
Do not connect any of your equipment (12 V power-supply unit, TV,
video recorder etc.) to the mains supply until you have properly
connected all the other leads.
Before you disconnect any other equipment from your set-top box’s
rear panel, disconnect your set-top box from the power supply (by
disconnecting the 12 V power-supply unit from the mains wall socket).
Never push anything into the holes, slots or other openings of the
set-top box case (except a smart card into its correct slot).
The only way to disconnect your set-top box from the mains is to
remove the power supply adapter from the mains socket. Therefore
you must install the set-top box near to the mains outlet socket which
should be easily accessible.
