IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
USING EQUIPMENT SAFELY
Your set-top box has been manufactured to meet
international safety standards, but you must take care
to operate it safely.
It is important that you read these safety instructions.
WARNING: Remember that contact with AC
mains can be lethal or can cause severe electric
shock. To avoid the risk of electric shock:
Never attempt to open the wall-mounted 12 V
power supply adapter, as there are high-voltage
live parts inside. There are no user-serviceable
parts inside this power supply adapter.
Never remove the top cover from your set-to
p box
.
There are no user-serviceable parts inside it.
On the base of your set-top box, there is a
tamper-evident label that states ‘Warranty void
if broken or removed’.
Make sure all electrical connections are properly
made.
Do not connect any equipment to the mains
supply until you have properly connected all the
other leads.
Before you disconnect any other equipment
from your set-top box’s rear panel, put your
set-top box into standby, then disconnect
your set-top box from the power supply (by
disconnecting the 12 V power supply adapter
from the mains socket on the wall).
Never push anything into holes, slots or other
openings in the case (except a smartcard into
the slot provided).
Do not expose batteries to excessive heat such
as sunshine, re or the like.
The model number, serial number and electrical
rating of your set-top box are on a label on its base.
CAUTION:
Do not use or store your set-top box in hot,
cold, damp or dusty places.
Do not block the ventilation holes of your set-
top box. Leave a gap of at least 10 cm above
and around it to allow for adequate ventilation.
Never stand it on soft furnishings.
Do not put anything on your set-top box which
might drip or spill into it. Never stand objects
lled with liquids, such as vases, on top of your set-
top box.
Do not place your set-top box in an
unventilated cabinet or on top of a unit that
emits heat (e.g. a VCR).
Never place naked ame sources, such as lighted
candles, on or adjacent to your set-to
p box
.
CONNECTING TO THE MAINS SUPPLY
Your set-top box is designed for use only with the
supplied 12 V power supply adapter.
• The 12 V power supply adapter operates with
a 220-240 V AC, 50 Hz mains supply. Do not
connect it to any other electricity supply than
this.
• To disconnect power from your set-top box,
always remove the 12 V power supply adapter
from the mains supply (rather than disconnect
the 12 V power supply adapter from your set-
top box). Therefore you must install your set-top
box near to the mains socket-outlet, which
should be easily accessible.
• If you are in any doubt about the mains lead,
its plug or its connection, consult a competent
electrician.
