4 of 16
Note
Risk of damage to the unit. Note the following points:
Incorrect wiring of the connections
Incorrect wiring of the connections can lead to malfunctions or defects in the unit.
Overheating
Observe the following points, so that the heat generated in the unit is adequately
dissipated.
• Unless otherwise specified in the supplied instructions, maintain the following
clearances around the unit: 10 cm above and 2 cm to each side.
• Do not cover or block the ventilation slots and the fan of the unit by, for example,
other devices, magazines, table cloths, clothing or curtains.
• Do not place any objects on top of the unit.
• Do not place the unit near the heater. Do not place naked flames, such as lit
candles, on the unit.
• Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight.
Risk of data loss and software damage if the receiver is disconnected from the
mains during operation
Always wait until the control unit is in standby mode before disconnecting it from the
vehicle power supply or mains. This ensures that any changed or new data will be saved
by the control unit.
Long periods of absence or storms
In case of prolonged absence or thunderstorms, always switch off the unit (from stand-by
mode) at the mains switch.
Further points:
Effects of waste heat from the unit
• Every electronic device generates heat. The temperature rise of the unit lies
within the permissible range. Sensitive furniture surfaces and veneers may, how-
ever, discolour over time due to constant exposure to heat.
• The device feet can cause colour changes on treated furniture surfaces. To avoid
possible discolouration, place the unit on a suitable firm and level surface.
How to use these instructions
• Read the instructions carefully before setting up and operating the unit.
• Keep the instructions safe for future reference, and pass them on to any new
owner.
