Using equipment safely
Your Sky+HD box has been manufactured to meet international safety standards, but you must take care if you want it to perform
properly and safely. You must have your Sky digital satellite system installed by a qualified satellite-TV installer. It is important that you
read this booklet completely, especially the safety instructions below. If you have any doubts about the installation, operation or safety
of your Sky+HD box, please contact Sky or your dealer.
Warnings and cautions
• Remember that contact with 230V AC mains can be lethal or can cause a severe electric shock. To avoid this risk:
• Never remove the top cover of your Sky+HD box. There are no user-serviceable parts inside, but there are some high-voltage live parts.
• Do not attempt to repair your Sky+HD box. Instead, please contact Sky Customer Service on the number provided in the Terms & Conditions.
• Never attempt to move or repair your satellite dish or low noise block.
• If you move your Sky+HD box between locations at different temperatures, allow it to reach room temperature before you apply power to it.
• Make sure that all electrical connections are properly made.
• Do not connect any of your equipment (Sky+HD box, TV, video etc.) to the mains supply until you have properly connected all the other
leads.
• Disconnect your Sky+HD box from the mains supply before you disconnect any other equipment from its rear panel.
• Never push anything into holes, slots or other openings in the casing of your Sky+HD box (except your viewing card and interactive card into
their respective slots).
• Your Sky+HD box is intended for use in moderate climates. Do not use or store your Sky+HD box in hot, cold, damp or dusty places.
• In order to ensure a free flow of air around your Sky+HD box, allow at least 10 cm of space above and on all sides (especially between your
Sky+HD box and your TV). Do not cover any ventilation slots.
• Ensure the ventilation slots do not become impeded with items such as newspapers, tablecloths and curtains or similar items.
• Do not place your Sky+HD box close to sources of heat such as a heater or direct sunlight. The maximum temperature should not exceed 45
°
C.
• Do not place your Sky+HD box in an enclosed cabinet with more than one other piece of audio/video equipment e.g. VCR or DVD.
• Do not put anything on your Sky+HD box which might drip or spill into it. Never stand objects filled with liquids, such as vases, on top.
• Never place naked flame sources, such as lighted candles, on or adjacent to your Sky+HD box.
• To avoid possible damage to the internal hard disk, do not pick up or otherwise move your Sky+HD box while it’s connected to the mains supply.
If you want to move your Sky+HD box, first switch it to standby using the remote control or front-panel button then wait at least 60 seconds
before disconnecting it. Wait another 30 seconds before continuing. You should handle your Sky+HD box carefully as any damage you cause to
the internal hard disk (or any other component) will invalidate your warranty.
