Rear Placement
Never place the set-top box on top of or close to any heat sources such as other electronic devices. Doing so will reduce life
time and may cause irreparable damage or malfunction. Note that the ambient temperature must be below 104° F. Be sure
to maintain necessary space around the set-top box to allow for proper ventilation. Never use the set-top box outside.
The set-top box is designed to stand on a horizontal surface. It can alternatively be mounted on the wall using the ttings
on the bottom side. To mount, use M3.0 x 38 mm (#6 x 11/2 inch) screws with a at underside and maximum screw head
diameter of 6.0 mm.
This product package can include a Bluetooth® Smart remote control which makes it possible to place the set-top box in a
hidden position without line-of-sight from the remote control. There is also an IR receiver in the front panel for use with e.g.
multi-remote controls of other brands than ARRIS. When using an IR remote control line-of-sight between the front side of
the set-top box and the remote control is still required. Modern at screen TV sets and low energy lamps emit light that in
some cases may interfere with the IR signal used by remote controls.
Note that metallic surfaces and objects can interfere with the operation of Wi-Fi and/or Bluetooth® wireless technology.
If the remote control is not working properly, try altering the position of the set-top box relative to the remote control.If the
Wi-Fi connection is not working properly, try altering the position of the set-top box relative to the Wi-Fi access point.
