Use as a room antenna
Where use of a full-size outdoor or loft-mounted antenna is not desirable or practicable,
the prvANT1DAU can deliver good digital and analogue TV reception in areas of adequate
signal strength. This product will out-perform many other types of indoor aerial.
Indoor use is illustrated in
Figs. 1 4
. As usual with room antennas you will need to
experiment with the position of the product for best results. Most digital receivers and
adapters have a signal strength and quality display function (consult the handbook for
your equipment) and this should be used when positioning the antenna for best digital
reception. Always position for the best signal quality. Positions near to a window are
frequently best, especially if the window is facing toward the transmitter location.
Whether the horizontal or the vertical position is required depends on the polarisation of
your local transmitter. If this is not known, try both and see which gives the better results.

Safety Instructions
OVERHEATING
The recommended ventilation clearances and other precautions given in the relevant section of
this instruction leaflet should be observed to prevent overheating. No unit should be fixed where
it is likely to become smothered by soft furnishing fabrics such as curtains, or by thermal insulation
material in a roof space or building void. Mains powered equipment should not be left resting on
a carpet.
WATER AND FIRE RISKS
The appliance is not waterproof. It is intended for indoor use only and must not be fixed where it
could be exposed to dripping or splashing water. Objects containing liquids should not be placed
on or near the appliance. To prevent risk of fire, no object with a naked flame should be placed
on or near the appliance, or its associated wiring.
MAINS POWER SUPPLY UNITS
The power unit(s) supplied as part of this appliance are suitable only for use with 13 A sockets to
BS 1363. Consult a qualified electrician if the socket outlets in the location where the appliance
is to be installed are of a different type.
FIXED WIRING
Any fixed wiring installed to supply power to this appliance should comply with BS 7671 (IEE
wiring regulations, 16th Edition). The appliance power units are of Class 2 construction and do
not require a protective earth connection. This does not obviate the need to provide a circuit
protective (earth) conductor in the supply wiring, as required by BS 7671.
