All operation and user instructions should be followed.  
 
Use of this device into a radiating antenna requires a valid licence from 
a Spectrum Management Authority in most countries. 
 
Use of this device as part of a transmission system, or combined 
transmission system not specified by the manufacturer, may require 
further testing to ensure that it remains compliant with the essential 
requirements and other relevant provisions of current EU Low Voltage, 
EMC and Radio Equipment Directives. Approval and clearance from the 
Spectrum Management Authority may also be required.  
 
Installation must adhere to safety regulations and the requirements of 
the relevant authorities. We recommend that at least two people are 
present during installation. Keep a file containing installation 
instructions and plans, including details of the transmission system 
(antennas, feeders, filters, etc) and operating instructions for all 
equipment at the transmission site at all times. Display posters 
detailing first aid treatment and treatment for electrical shock, along 
with telephone numbers for contacting the emergency services in the 
event of personal injury.  
 
Ensure antenna system lightning strike protection is in place. 
 
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not remove the cover, or any 
screws. There are no user serviceable parts inside; refer servicing to 
qualified personnel. 
 
Do not expose this appliance to rain or moisture. The transmitter 
should not be used near water. Care should be taken so that objects 
do not fall - and liquids are not spilled - into the enclosure through 
openings.  
 
To reduce the risk of fire, always replace fuses with the same type and 
rating. 
 
The transmitter should be mounted into a well-ventilated standard 19 
inch equipment rack, using slide supports. It should be situated so that 
its location or position does not interfere with its proper ventilation. 
 
The transmitter should be situated away from heat sources. 
 
The transmitter should be connected to a power supply only of the 
type described in the operating instructions or as marked on the unit. 
Precautions should be taken so that the grounding or polarisation of 
this appliance is not defeated.
