WARNING
Danger to life due to improper use of batteries!
When used improperly, batteries can be damaged and can explode. Damaged batteries release caustic substances or can form explosive compounds.
▶ Do not expose batteries excessively to sources of heat, direct sunlight or fire.
▶ Comply with safety instructions stated on the batteries.
▶ Replace the batteries only with types that are identical or equivalent.


ATTENTION
Material damage due to:
Incorrect supply voltage!
▶ Operate the unit only at the specified mains voltage. It is stated at the back of the unit or on the external power supply unit.
Incorrectly earthed antenna system!
▶ Earth the antenna system in accordance with regulations or connect an equipotential bonding conductor.
▶ Comply with EN 60728/11 and, where applicable, with national regulations.
Overheating!
▶ Do not cover or block the ventilation slots or the fan of the unit by, for example, other objects, magazines, table cloths, clothing or curtains.
▶ Do not place any objects on top of the unit.
▶ Do not place naked flames on the unit, e.g. candles.

Loss of data and software corruption due to the receiver being disconnected from the mains whilst in use!
▶ Always switch the receiver into stand-by mode by pressing the stand-by button on the remote control before disconnecting it from the mains.
→ Altered and new data are saved.
2.3 General notes
Effects of the heat generated by the unit
Every electronic device generates heat. Although the temperature rise of the 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 discolouration, place the unit on a suitable stable flat underlay.
Product return/Original packaging
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.
▶ Keep the original packaging in case you need to return the product at any time.
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.
▶ Note the basic settings that you make when setting up the receiver for the first time, so that you can restore them later, if necessary.
Tip
Keep these instructions for further reference and give them to the next owner if the unit is sold.

Tip
- This sections describes the basic functions of the remote control for displaying broadcast TV programmes (live mode). For a detailed description of the remote control, see the UFS 933 comprehensive instructions for use at www.kathrein.com.
- Many buttons have one or several context-dependent functions described either at the bottom of the user interface or at the bottom/top of the main menu.
- Use the remote control to switch the receiver to stand-by to minimise the power consumption.
- For longer breaks in use, disconnect the receiver from the mains so as to avoid possible damage due to power surges (lightning strikes). A switchable multi-way socket extension allows you to do this for both the TV set and other associated devices with a single switch.

6 Connecting the receiver
6.1 Requirements
This Quick Start Guide describes how to connect and commission single systems of type DiSEqC™1.0 or simple LNB for the satellites Astra 19.2° East and Hotbird 13° East.
For more information, see the UFS 933 comprehensive instructions for use at www.kathrein.com. Contact your specialist dealer directly if you have questions or encounter problems.
Tip
Note the difference between a single-device system and a single-cable system:
In classic satellite distribution (single-device system), each receiver/participant is connected to its own antenna cable.
In the single-cable 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.

6.2 Selecting the installation site

ATTENTION
Material damage due to improper installation site!
Follow the following instructions to avoid material damage:
▶ Maintain at least the following clearance around the unit: 10 cm above, 5 cm behind, 2 cm to either side.
▶ Never install the unit in a cupboard or on shelves with inadequate ventilation.
▶ Do not install the unit close to the sources of heat.
▶ Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight.
▶ Install the unit close to an easily accessible mains socket to be able to disconnect the unit from the mains at any time.
▶ Do not place any heavy objects on the receiver, e.g. TV.
6.3 Connecting the antenna cable
√ A sufficiently long antenna cable with F screw-on connectors is available (Fig. 7).

Fig. 7: F screw-type connector
- Connect the coaxial cable of the LNB to the tuner input LNB IN. Tighten the cable only hand-tight.
- Using the antenna cable, connect the tuner input LNB IN to a Sat socket (①, ②, ③ in Fig. 8):
a) Insert the F screw-on connector centrally into LNB IN and push it in to the stop.
b) Tighten the union nut on the F screw-type connector.
6.4 Connecting the TV set
- Using the HDMI cable, connect the HDMI port on the receiver to the TV set (④ in Fig. 8).
Alternatively, connect the TV port on the receiver to the TV set using a scart cable (⑤, not included in the scope of delivery).
- Carry out the initial set-up as described in Chapter 7.

Software changes/use of applications
Any modifications to the receiver software, or the use of applications not provided by Kathrein will invalidate the warranty: You will have to bear the costs yourself for dispatching and repairing any receiver that requires attention due to modifications to the software and use of applications other than those provided by Kathrein.
Therefore you should use exclusively software and applications provided by Kathrein for your receiver. These are available by downloading from the satellite or from the Internet (www.kathrein.com).
Kathrein assumes no liability for the loss of recordings/data on internal hard disks or external storage media.
The software installed on the device/product before dispatch from the factory is suitable for its function and is of the quality usual for this type of software. It has not been technically possible to fully eliminate all bugs during the software development process. However, the software as delivered is considered to be defective only if it fails to perform the functions usual for the device/product. A shortcoming that causes only an insignificant reduction in quality does not rank as a defect. Functional shortcomings in the software or program that result from hardware defects, ambient conditions, incorrect operation or the like do not rank as software defects.
