Repair and Refurbished Goods
or Parts Notice
Unfortunately, from time to time, faulty products are manufactured which need
to be returned to the Supplier for repair.
Please be aware that if your product is capable of retaining user-generated data
(such as files stored on a computer hard drive, telephone numbers stored on a
mobile telephone, songs stored on a portable media player, games saved on a
games console or files stored on a USB memory stick) during the process of re-
pair, some or all of your stored data may be lost. We recommend you save this
data elsewhere prior to sending the product for repair.
You should also be aware that rather than repairing goods, we may replace
them with refurbished goods of the same type or use refurbished parts in the
repair process.
Please be assured though, refurbished parts or replacements are only used
where they meet ALDI’s stringent quality specifications.
If at any time you feel your repair is being handled unsatisfactorily, you may es-
calate your complaint. Please telephone us on 1 300 884 987 or write to us at:

Safety instructions
Keep electrical equipment out of reach of children
This device is not intended for use by people (including children) with reduced physi-
cal, sensory or mental abilities, or by people who lack the experience or knowledge to
use it unless they are supervised by a person responsible for their safety or have been
instructed on its use.
Never allow children to use electrical appliances without supervision.
DANGER!
Keep packaging material, e.g. plastic wrapping, out of reach of chil-
dren. Misuse could lead to a risk of suffocation.
General
• Never open the casing of the device (electrical shock, short circuit and fire hazard)!
• Never insert any objects through the slots and openings to the inside of the device
(electrical shock, short circuit and fire hazard)!
• The slots and openings on the device are for ventilation purposes. Do not cover
these openings (overheating, fire risk)!
• The universal remote control has a class 1 infrared diode. Do not use optical devic-
es to look at the LED.
• Do not place containers containing liquid, e.g. vases, on the appliance, the mains
adapter or in their immediate surroundings, and protect all parts of the device from
rain and water. The container may tip over and the liquid can impair the electrical
safety of the device.
• If the plug, cable or device is damaged, immediately remove the plug from the
power outlet.
• If the unit has been moved from a cold to a warm room, wait before connecting
the device to the power supply. The ensuing condensation could damage the de-
vice. The device can be operated safely as soon as it reaches room temperature.

Handling batteries
Batteries may contain combustible materials. If handled improperly, batteries may leak,
heat up excessively, ignite or even explode, which could result in damage to the device
and your health.
WARNING!
Risk of explosion if batteries are replaced incorrectly.
Replace batteries only with the same or equivalent type.
Please note the following safety advice:
• If swallowed, batteries may endanger life. For this reason, keep the remote control
and the batteries out of reach of children. If a battery is swallowed, please obtain
immediate medical assistance.
• Never charge batteries (unless they are designed to be recharged).
• Always observe the correct polarity.
• Never empty the batteries by means of high power output.
• Never short-circuit the batteries.
• Never expose the batteries to excessive heat, such as sunlight, fire or similar.
• Do not dismantle or deform the batteries. You could injure your hands or fingers,
and battery fluid could come into contact with your eyes or skin. If this happens,
rinse the affected areas immediately with plenty of clean water and contact your
doctor immediately.
• Avoid heavy impacts and vibrations.
• Clean the contacts in the battery compartment and on the new batteries before in-
sertion.
• Remove empty batteries from the device immediately.
• Remove the batteries from the device if you do not intend to use it for
a long period of time.
• Cover the contacts of the batteries with sticky tape if you want to store or dispose
of them.
Set-up location
• Set up and operate all components on a stable, level and vibration-free surface to
prevent the device from falling down.
• Do not jolt or shake the device. Impacts may damage the sensitive electronics.
• Do not place the device near heat sources (e.g. heaters) that could affect it.
• Do not place naked flames (e.g. lit candles) on or near the device.
• Make sure that you do not obstruct or cover the vents to ensure permanent ade-
quate ventilation.
• Do not place any objects on the cable as these could damage it.
• Maintain a minimum distance of approx. 10 cm between the device or mains
adapter and any walls. Ensure adequate ventilation.

• Keep the appliance at a distance of at least one metre from high frequency and
magnetic sources of interference (television, speaker boxes, mobile telephones,
etc.) to avoid malfunctions.

up within the device due to condensation, which can cause an electrical short cir-
cuit.
Never attempt to repair the device!
If the mains adapter, connecting cable or device is damaged, immediately unplug the
device from the power outlet.
Do not use the device if it or the connecting cable is visibly damaged or if the device it-
self has been dropped.

shock!
If there is a fault, contact the MEDION Service Centre.
Cleaning and care
• Always disconnect the mains adapter from the power outlet before cleaning the de-
vice.
• Only use a dry, soft cloth to clean the device. Do not use chemical solutions and
cleaning products because these may damage the unit’s surface and/or inscrip-
tions.
Data backup
• Please note! Back up your data to external storage media after each update. We do
not accept any liability for claims for compensation arising from loss of data or any
damages incurred.
Electricity supply
Please note: Even in standby mode some components of the device are live. To dis-
connect the power from your device or to completely isolate the device from voltage
sources, unplug the device completely from the mains.
• Only operate the mains power plug on earthed power outlets with AC 100–240 V
~ 50 Hz. Contact your electricity provider if you are not sure if the socket is earthed
or not.
• Use only the supplied mains adapter.
(Ktec KSAD1200150W1AU). Never try to connect the the plug of the mains adapter
to other connectors as this may cause damage.
