• Ensure the ventilation holes and slots
don’t become impeded with items such as
newspapers, tablecloths and curtains or
similar items
• Don’t place your Sky Hub close to sources
of heat such as a heater or direct sunlight. The
maximum temperature should not exceed 45°C
• Don’t place your Sky Hub in an enclosed
cabinet with other pieces of tv equipment
e.g. Sky Box, VCR or DVD
• Don’t put anything on your Sky Hub 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 Hub
Mains plug and its fuse
The supplied mains plug may
be a non-rewireable type or
a rewireable type. Both types
contain an approved 3A fuse. If you need to
replace the fuse, use an ASTA or BSI approved
BS 1362 fuse, rated at 3A and marked with
either of these symbols. Non-rewireable plugs
have the fuse beneath a fuse cover on the plug
face. Use a screwdriver to lever off the fuse
cover, replace the fuse with a new one and refit
its cover. Never use a plug if its fuse cover is
missing. Rewireable plugs have the fuse inside.
Use a screwdriver to remove the plug’s back
cover, then lever out the fuse and replace it
with a new one. Replace the plug’s back cover.
If the supplied mains plug is not suitable for
your mains socket outlet, remove its fuse and
then cut the plug off the lead. Destroy the
severed plug immediately to avoid the shock
hazard which would exist if this were to be
plugged into a mains socket. Don’t attempt
to repair or modify the mains lead or plug. Fit
an appropriate mains plug on the lead. If this
plug contains a fuse, it should be as described
above. If you’re using a non-fused plug, an
external fuse must not exceed 5A.
Connecting to the mains supply
Your Sky Hub operates with 230V AC, 50 Hz
mains supply. Don’t connect it to a DC power
supply. On some models, the supplied mains
lead has a 2-way connector at one end and
a mains plug at the other. Insert the 2-way
connector into your Sky Hub before you insert
the plug into the mains supply. The only way
to disconnect your Sky Hub from the mains
is to take the plug out of the socket. Your Sky
Hub must therefore be installed near the
mains socket outlet, which should be easily
accessible.
If you’re in any doubt about
anything relating to the mains supply,
consult a competent electrician.
