NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS ARE INSIDE
REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED PERSONNEL
The lightening symbol in a triangle is used to alert you to the presence of dangerous voltages inside the receiver
that may be sufficient to constitute a risk of electric shock to anyone opening the case. It is also used to indicate
improper installation or handling of the receiver that could damage the electrical system in the receiver or in
other equipment attached to the receiver.
The exclamation point in a triangle is used to alert you to important operating and maintenance instructions.
Failure to follow these instructions could result in injury to you or damage to the receiver.
Be careful with electricity:
 Power outlet: To prevent electric shock be sure the electrical plug used on the receiver’s power cord matches the
electrical outlet used to supply power to the receiver. Connect the power cord only to a power source that operates at
100~240 Volts AC, 50/60 Hz.
 Power plug: If a three-prong power plug is provided with the receiver, be sure it is used with a properly grounded
three-wire power socket.
 Power cord: Be sure the power cord is routed so that it will not be stepped on or pinched by heavy items.
 Power overloading: Avoid overloading electrical outlets or extension cords, which otherwise could result in electric
shock or fire.
 Lightening: For protection from lightening, or when the receiver is left unattended for a long period, disconnect it
from the power source.
 Protect other equipment: Unplug the receiver before connecting any other equipment, especially the dish antenna
connect all equipment to the receiver before plugging any power cords to the power source.
Also follow these precautions:
 Ventilation: Do not block the ventilation slots on the receiver, or place any heavy object on top of it. Blocking the
airflow could damage the receiver. Arrange components so that air can flow freely around the receiver. Ensure that
there is adequate ventilation if the receiver is placed in a stand. Put the receiver in a properly ventilated area, away
from direct sunlight or any source of heat.
 Overheating: Avoid stacking the receiver on top of a hot component such as a power amplifier.
 Risk Of Fire: Do not place the receiver on top of any easily combustible material, such as carpet or fabric.
 Proper Connections: Be sure all cables an equipment are connected to the receiver as described in this manual.
 Object Entry: To avoid electric shock, never stick anything in the slots on the case or remove the cover.
 Water Exposure: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose the receiver to rain or moisture.
