SAFETY INFORMATION
This digital set-top has been manufactured
and tested with your safety in mind.
However, improper use can result in
potential electric shock or fire hazards.
To avoid defeating the safeguards that
have been built into your set-top, please
observe the precautions discussed in this
document.
Warnings on your set-top
The lightning flash with
arrowhead symbol, within a
triangle, is intended to alert you
to the presence of uninsulated
“dangerous” voltages within
your set-top’s enclosure that
may be of sufficient magnitude
to constitute a risk of electric
shock to persons.
The exclamation point within a
triangle is intended to alert you
to the presence of important
instructions in the literature
accompanying your set-top.
Other warnings
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do
not remove the cover of your set-top.
There are no user-serviceable parts inside it.
Do not perform any servicing unless you
are qualified to do so by pace. Refer all
servicing to qualified service personnel.
Servicing the set-top yourself will
invalidate the warranty.
On the rear panel of your set-top there
is a tamper-evident label that states
“Warranty void if broken or removed”.
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock,
do not expose this set-top to rain or
moisture.
INSTALLATION
The installation of your set-top should
be carried out by a qualified installer and
should conform to local codes.
Note to the installer
This reminder is provided to call the
attention of the cable-TV-system installer
to Section 820-40 of the National
Electrical Code (USA), which provides
guidelines for proper grounding and, in
particular, specifies that the cable ground
shall be connected to the grounding
system of the building, as close to the
point of cable entry as is practical.
In addition to the Important Safety
Instructions, please read the Safety
Information below.
Power sources

If you move your
set-top between locations at different
temperatures, allow it to reach room
temperature before you apply power to it.
Overloading
Do not overload wall outlets, extension
cords or other power outlets as this can
result in a risk of fire or electric shock.
Lightning
For added protection for your set-top
during a lightning storm, or when it is left
unattended and unused for long periods
of time, disconnect the cable system from
your set-top. See also item 13 in the
Important Safety Information.
Placement and mounting
Do not place your set-top on an unstable
or uneven surface. Your set-top may fall,
causing serious injury to a child or adult
and serious damage to your set-top. If
you mount your set-top, for example to a
wall or ceiling, follow the manufacturer’s
instructions and use a mounting accessory
recommended by the manufacturer. See
also item 12 in the Important Safety
Instructions.
Risk of fire or scorching
Never place naked flame sources, such
as lighted candles, on or adjacent to your
set-top.
Ambient temperature
The operating temperature range of
your set-top is 32-104°F. If the ambient
temperature around your set-top falls
outside this range, you must correct this in
order for your set-top to work correctly
and safely. For example, if the temperature
is too high, switch on the air conditioning.
Ventilation
Slots and openings in the casing of your
set-top are provided for ventilation, to
ensure reliable operation of your set-top
and to protect it from overheating.
• Never block the ventilation openings
by placing your set-top on a bed, sofa,
rug or other similar surface.
• Never cover the ventilation openings
with items such as newspapers, table-
cloths or curtains.

• Maintain a minimum distance of 1 inch
around your set-top for sufficient
ventilation.
See also item 7 in the Important Safety
Instructions.
Transporting
Move the combination of set-top and
cart with care. Quick stops, excessive
force and uneven surfaces may cause
the combination of set-top and cart
to overturn. See also item 12 in the
Important Safety Instructions.
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, ask the service
technician to perform safety checks to
determine that your set-top is in its
proper operating condition. See also item
14 in the Important Safety Instructions.
Entry of objects and liquids
Never push objects of any kind into
your set-top 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.
Water and moisture
Do not expose this set-top to dripping
or splashing and ensure that no objects
filled with liquids, such as vases, are placed
on your set-top. See also item 5 in the

Regulatory
information
CAUTION: Do not attempt to
modify your set-top without written
authorization from the manufacturer.
Unauthorized modification could
void your authority to operate your
set-top.
Epilepsy And
On-screen Images
Certain people are susceptible to epileptic
seizures or losing consciousness when
faced with certain types of flashing lights in
our daily environment.
These people are exposed to the risk of
seizures if they watch certain television
images. This phenomenon may appear even
when the subject has no previous history
of this problem or has never suffered an
epileptic seizure.
If you, or a member of your family, has
already suffered symptoms linked to
epilepsy (seizure or loss of consciousness)
in the presence of stimulation by light,
please consult your doctor before using
this product.
If you or any person using the equipment
experiences dizziness, involuntary
movements or convulsion, please
immediately stop viewing and consult a
doctor.
NOTE
Your set-top has been tested and found
to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the
FCC Rules. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference in a residential
installation. Your set-top generates,
uses and can radiate radio-frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may
cause harmful interference to radio
communications.
However, there is no guarantee
that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If your set-top
does cause harmful interference to
radio or television reception, which can
be determined by turning your set-top
off and on, you are encouraged to try
to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving
antenna.
• Increase the separation between
your set-top and the receiver.
• Connect your set-top to an outlet
on a circuit different from that to
which the receiver is connected.
• Consult your dealer or an
experienced radio/TV technician for
help.
