General safety instructions
Earthing the antenna system
An incorrectly earthed antenna system can lead to overvoltage in the event of a
lightning strike. Earth the antenna system in accordance with regulations or connect an equipotential bonding conductor. When doing so, comply with EN 60728/11
and national regulations where applicable.
Caution
Risk of corrosion and explosion of batteries. If your unit is supplied with batteries
(for instance in the remote control), comply with the following points:
● Do not expose batteries excessively to sources of heat, direct sunlight or fire.
● Comply with the safety instructions stated on the batteries:
● Replace the batteries only with types that are identical or equivalent,
Important
Risk of damage to the unit. Please note the following points:
Incorrect connections to the ports
Improperly connected connections can lead to operating faults or defects in the
unit.
Overheating
Comply with the following points, so that the heat generated in the unit is adequately dissipated.
● Unless stated to the contrary in the instructions supplied with the unit, maintain
the following clearances around it: 10 cm above it, 5 cm behind it, 2 cm to either
side.
● Never install the unit in a cupboard or on shelves with inadequate ventilation.
● Never cover or block the cooling slots on the unit or the fan (e. g. with other
equipment, magazines, tablecloths, clothing or curtains).
● Do not place any objects on top of the unit.
● Do not place the unit close to sources of heat, and do not place naked flames,
such as candles, on the unit.
● Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight.
Loss of data and software corruption if the receiver is disconnected from the
mains whilst it is in use
Always switch the receiver into stand-by mode by pressing the stand-by button (on/
off) on the remote control, before disconnecting it from the mains. This ensures
that any data that is new or has been changed will be saved by the receiver.
4 from 24
Long periods of absence or storms
● If you are going to be absent for a long time or if there is a storm, always switch
off the unit at the mains (have first switched it into stand-by mode). Then pull the
plug out of the mains socket, so as to totally disconnect the unit from the mains.
This also applies to other equipment connected to the unit.
● We recommend also disconnecting the power cable and the antenna cable from
the unit.
Further points
Effects of the heat generated by the unit
● All electronic equipment generates heat. The temperature rise of this unit lies
within the permissible range. Sensitive furniture surfaces and veneers may however become discoloured by the effects of constant heat over time.
● The feet of the unit can cause changes to the colour of treated furniture surfaces. To avoid possible discoloration, place the unit on a suitable stable flat
underlay.
Use of these instructions
● Read these instructions carefully before setting up the unit.
● Keep the instructions safe for future reference, and pass them on to any new
owner.
Product return/original packaging
Please keep the original packaging in case you need to return the product at any
time. Due to the nature of their construction receivers are fragile, and only the original packaging can be relied on to provide adequate protection. If the receiver is not
shipped correctly the guarantee/warranty on it will be voided.
Updates
The information in this manual was correct at the time of going to press. However,
we reserve the right to make changes at any time and without prior notice. If new
software which affects the information in this manual (e. g. changes to the menus
and/or functions) is released for your receiver, where we believe it necessary we
will make available a new manual for download under www.kathrein.com.
Make a note of the basic settings that you make when setting up the receiver for
the first time, so that you can restore them later if necessary.

Preconditions
This Quick Start Guide describes how to connect and commission single-device systems of type
DiSEqC™1.0 or simple LNB for the satellites Astra 19.2° East 1) and Hotbird 13° East 1).
All other systems are described in the comprehensive instructions for use. Ask your specialist
dealer if you have questions or encounter problems.
1)
Astra 19.2° East is preinstalled at position 1 and Hotbird 13° East is preinstalled at position 2.
Tip
Note the difference between a single-device system and a onecable system:
In classic satellite distribution (single-device
system) each receiver/participant is connected to its own antenna cable.
In the onecable system several receivers/participants are connected to a single antenna
cable. Transmission channels are used to
allow each receiver/participant to receive
broadcast channels independently.
