certain amount of time (transported during winter for example), wait approximately 2
hours before using your video recorder. The openings located on the top and the bottom
are for ventilation purposes. They should not be obstructed. In the event of lightning, the
appliance should be disconnected from the external aerial.

mains. To disconnect it completely, it is necessary to remove the mains plug from the mains
socket
Under no circumstances should this appliance be put to industrial use. It is designed solely
