Symbols used This symbol alerts your attention to the caution which follows, the caution itself providing you with a warning about the following matters: - Risk of personal injury, - Risk of electric shock, - Risk of fire, - Risk of explosion, - Equipment damage, as well as drawing your attention to important information, such as: - Notes on network separation. After this symbol you will be given tips on the handling the device. Intended use This indoor antenna is intended exclusively for non- commercial utilisation in the reception of UHF/VHF and DVB-T TV senders and for VHF radio reception in indoor rooms. Any utilisation other than as described here is not permitted and could lead to damage and injuries. No liability will be accepted for damages resulting from false or improper usage, the application of force or unauthorised modifications. Important Instructions for your Safety! To avoid potentially fatal electric shocks:

• This device is not intended for use by individuals (including children) with restricted physical, physiological or intellectual abilities or defici- ences in experience and/or knowledge unless they are supervised by a person responsible for their safety or receive from this person instruction in how the device is to be used.

• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

• Do not bend or squeeze the power cable.

• To disconnect, always pull the plug itself out of the mains power socket, do not pull on the power cable.

• Arrange for defective plugs and/or cables to be replaced at once by qualified technicians or our Customer Service Department.

• Before cleaning, or if there is a power supply fault, remove the plug from the mains power socket.

• Do not place objects containing liquids, e.g. flower vases, on or near the device.

• NEVER submerge the device in water or other liquids.

• NEVER open the housing of the appliance, it contains no user-serviceable parts! If the hou- sing is opened, there is a risk of receiving a potentially fatal electric shock.

IB_79829_SZA28A1_GB_LB1.qxd 06.12.2012 13:44 Uhr Seite 20- 21 - Separation from the mains power network: The controller does not completely separate the an- tenna from the mains power network when it is swit- ched off. In addition, the antenna consumes current in the off-state. To completely separate the antenna from the mains power supply, the plug must be dis- connected from the mains power socket. Therefore, the device should be positioned so that the mains power socket is at all times easily accessible, also ensuring that the appliance can be easily and quickly disconnected in the event of an emergency. To avoid the risk of fire, the device should always be unplugged when it is not in use, and especially so during holidays or extended absences. To avoid damage to the device:

• Ensure that the voltage details given on the type plate tally completely with those of the local power supply.

• Do not place unprotected fire sources, such as candles, on or adjacent to the appliance.

• Ensure an adequate safety distance to other objects (approx. 10 cm).

• The appliance may only be used under normal indoor conditions, i.e. protected against moisture, dirt, extremes of heat and cold and temperature fluctuations.

• Always pull the plug out of the power socket if you are not using the room antenna for a longer period of time.

• In the event of a heavy storm or a thunderstorm with lightning, equipment connected to a mains power supply could be damaged. Therefore, always unplug the antenna from the mains power supply during a thunderstorm. Technical Data This device complies, regarding conformity, to the basic requirements and other relevent provisions of the Low Voltage Directive 2004/108/EC, the Directive for Low Voltage Appliances 2006/95/EC, the Eco Design Directive 2009/125/EC (Ordinance 1275/2008 Appendix II, Number 1) as well as the RoHS directive 2011/65/EU.

to the antenna socket of your television. The antenna cable of the indoor antenna

can only be connected directly to the TV if the TV has a built-in DVB-T Tuner. Connection as a radio aerial When you want to use the room antenna for radio reception, utilise the Adapter Coaxial socket/Coaxial socket

Connect the Adapter Coaxial socket/Coaxial socket

with the antenna cable. Connect the anntenna cable with Adapter Coaxial socket/Coaxial socket

to the 75 Ohm connector on your stereo system. Connection to a DVB-T receiver Connect the antenna cable of the indoor antenna

to the antenna socket of the DVB-T Receiver. To connect the room antenna to a DVB-T- Receiver with an F-socket, the Adapter F-Plug/ Coaxial socket

must be used. Connect the Adapter F-Plug/Coaxial socket

with the antenna cable. Screw the antenna cable with the Adapter F-Plug/Coaxial socket

to the F-socket of the DVB-T-Receivers. Power source connection Insert the power plug of the indoor antenna into the power socket. Operating the Indoor Antenna Receiving programme signals via the indoor antenna The programme signals are received by the indoor antenna and transmitted to the television set. For the reception of DVB-T transmitter signals you need a TV with an integrated DVB-T Tuner or an additional DVB-T Receiver (DVB-T signals are not available everywhere). The indoor antenna has to be positioned correctly for the proper reception of programme signals. The following antennas are available for this:

two telescoping antennas for VHF and UKW reception that tilt and rotate by 180° and

one oval-shaped antenna for UHF reception that tilts and rotates by 100°. To orient the indoor antenna: Pull out both telescopic antenna

and adjust these until the best reception is obtained. Adjust the oval antenna

by turning or tilting until the best reception is obtained. Switching On and Regulating the Amplifier You can regulate the amplifier gain by turning the regulator

on the front of the appliance: Switch on the indoor antenna by turning the regulator

to the right. The operation indicator

in clockwise direction to increase the amplifier gain. Turn the regulator

in anti-clockwise direction to decrease the amplifier gain. Turn the regulator

completely to the left until it clicks to switch off the indoor antenna.

IB_79829_SZA28A1_GB_LB1.qxd 06.12.2012 13:44 Uhr Seite 22- 23 - What to Do in the Event of Reception Problems Reception disruptions, such as an unclear or distor- ted picture could have the following causes:

• The indoor antenna is not correctly oriented. Every station requires an individual orientation. For this reason, reorient the indoor antenna every time after changing the station.

• There are obstacles in the reception range of the indoor antenna. Attempt to remove the obstructions or place the antenna at a different location.

• There is electromagnetic interference in the immediate vicinity. Try to eliminate the interference if, for example, it is caused by other appliances (mobile tele- phone, micro-wave, etc.).

• Interference due to overmodulation. Try to eliminate the interference by reducing the amplifier gain by turning the regulator

anti-clockwise. The reception characteristics of the indoor antenna are only good if you are close enough to the broad-casting station. Cleaning and Care Risk of electric shock

• Before cleaning, always pull the plug out of the plug socket.

• Never submerge the indoor antenna into water or other liquids during cleaning. Clean the indoor antenna only with a dry, lint-free cloth. To avoid damaging the appliance, never use solvents for cleaning. Disposal Do not dispose of the appliance in your normal domestic waste. This product is subject to the European guideline 2002/96/EC. Dispose of the appliance through an approved disposal centre or at your community waste facility. Observe the currently applicable regulations.
