 Antenna/aerial provided with some DVB-T products contains a magnet
Solution Some EyeTV hardware like EyeTV Hybrid, EyeTV DTT Deluxe or EyeTV for DTT stick are bundled with a rod antenna/aerial with a magnetic base.

Please leave sufficient space between the antenna and any equipment which is affected by electromagnetic fields (such as a portable computer, a disk drive, a magnetic card, etc.). Elgato Systems is not liable for damages caused by improper usage of this product.

The product's rod antenna was developed to provide reliable signal quality, even under conditions unfavorable for reception. It might be necessary in some cases to use an active antenna or a roof antenna - instead of the rod antenna - if there is an insufficient number of transmitters or if the nearest transmitter is too far away.

The electromagnetic field emitted by the base can interfere with pacemakers. In general, a distance of at least 20 centimeters should be maintained between the magnet and your pacemaker. If you feel the antenna's magnetic base interferes with your pacemaker, please move away from the antenna. Please discuss this matter with your doctor.
