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 remove the top cover from the 12 V
power supply unit, as there are high-voltage live
parts inside . There are no user-serviceable parts
inside this power supply unit .
Never remove the top cover from your set-top box .
There are no user-serviceable parts inside it .
On the rear panel 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 unit 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) .
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
filled 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 flame sources, such as lighted
candles, on or adjacent to your set-top box .
CONNECTING TO THE MAINS SUPPLY
• Your set-top box is designed for use only with the
supplied 12 V power supply unit .
• The 12 V power supply unit operates with a 220-
240 V AC, 50 Hz mains supply . Do not connect it
to any other electricity supply than this .
• Connect the 12 V power supply unit to your set-
top box . Then insert the 2-way connector on the
supplied mains lead into the 12 V power supply
unit, then finally insert the mains plug into the
mains supply at the wall socket .
• To disconnect power from your set-top box,
always remove the 12 V power supply unit from
the mains supply (rather than disconnect the
12 V power supply unit 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 .
