ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Your receiver is supplied with an external 100V - 240V AC, 50Hz power supply that connects by 12V DC plug to the receiver and by UK mains plug adapter to the mains. Always connect the 12V DC plug to the receiver before connecting the mains plug.
If the mains plug breaks or becomes damaged, do not use it. Do not cut or open the adapter, as this will expose you to dangerous high voltages present inside. The adapter is non-serviceable and does not have any replaceable parts inside. If the power supply is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent, or suitably qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove screws from the receiver or open it as it contains no user- serviceable parts. Please leave all maintenance work to qualified personnel.

CONNECTING YOUR RECEIVER
This section explains how to set up your Bush receiver to receive Freesat channels.
2
THE SATELLITE DISH
To receive Freesat, you must connect your receiver to an appropriate satellite dish, fixed in position and accurately pointed at the 28.2° East satellite position.
For safety reasons and to provide reliable reception, we strongly recommend that you have your dish installed by a professional. You may be able to use a satellite dish already installed at your home. If you have any questions about the dish, please consult your installer.
12
Place your receiver on a firm, level surface close to the television, a mains electricity socket, and the cables from the dish. (See page 3 – Safety.)

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
DO NOT OPEN
Connect the two cables (or one double cable) from your dish to the LNB IN 1 and LNB IN 2 sockets at the back of the receiver (if the dish cables are fitted with a wall socket inside your home, you will need connecting cables, which you can get from your installer). It does not matter which of the two cables from the dish is connected to which LNB IN socket.
HINT: Each “F-connector” used for the satellite dish cable
connections has a central wire that is inserted into the hole in the LNB IN socket while the collar is screwed onto the socket. When screwing on the collar, make sure that the central wire goes into the socket hole and is not bent to one side.
Turn off your television at its mains socket and connect the HDMI
HINT: If your television has no HDMI socket, then it must
be connected to the receiver by SCART cable, and you will not be able to watch Freesat channels in High Definition.
cable supplied between the HDMI socket at the back of your receiver and an HDMI socket on your television. There may be more than one HDMI socket on your television. If you are not sure which to use, check the television’s manual.
Connect the +12VDC connector to the 3A DC 12Vconnector at the back of the receiver.Then connect the Power Supply Unit (unit with 3 pin mains plug) toan available mains socket that is turned off.
You may have other equipment, such as a DVD recorder or surround sound system, to connect to the receiver.
A video recorder or DVD recorder may be connected to your receiver to make permanent archive recordings of Freesat programmes. You will need to connect a SCART cable between the VCR SCART socket on the back of the receiver and a SCART socket on the video
or DVD recorder. Check the recorder’s manual for guidance.
You can listen to the sound from your Bush receiver through a stereo or surround sound system. For digital sound, connect an optical lead from the sound system’s S/PDIF socket to the one on the receiver. For analogue sound, connect a suitable lead between the receiver’s L and R AUDIO sockets and the L and R audio inputs on the sound system.
To watch On Demand TV services including BBC iPlayer and ITV Player, the receiver must be connected to your internet router or hub using an ethernet cable (not supplied). Plug one end of the ethernet cable into the ETHERNET socket at the back of the receiver, and the other into your hub or router. Make sure the connections are fully pushed in - you’ll hear a click as they lock into place. Consult your router or hub’s documentation for further guidance.
If your receiver is not located near your hub or router, you could use HomePlug powerline adapters to extend your home network using the ring main of your house. Another option is to use a Wireless Ethernet Bridge to bridge the Ethernet socket of the Bush receiver to wi-fi, enabling it to connect wirelessly to your home network. For more information, please consult with your installer or retailer. If you require support for these devices, you will need to contact the manufacturer. The receiver does not support USB Wi-Fi dongles.

SWITCHING ON
HINT: If you do not see this screen on your television, see
‘Troubleshooting’ on page 44.
Remove the battery compartment cover from the back of the remote control by lifting the cover catch. Insert the two AAA batteries supplied, as shown on the inside of the compartment. Replace the compartment cover.
Cover catch
Turn on your television at its mains socket, then if necessary bring it out of standby and choose the HDMI input (see your television’s manual for guidance). Switch on the mains socket that the receiver is connected to.

After a few seconds, the receiver’s fi rst Freesat installation screen will appear on the television screen:
TUNING IN
When the fi rst installation screen is displayed, use the or buttons to select between 16:9 Widescreen or the squarer 4:3 Traditional as the screen format of your television. Then press the button or the button to highlight the HDMI Resolution selection box, and use the or buttons to select the correct resolution for your television. You should set the HDMI resolution to the highest that your television can display (see your television’s manual). If in doubt, set the resolution to 720p.
HINT: Enter your postcode with the number buttons by
pressing the correct button on the remote a number of times to produce the required letter (printed on each button), or number, in the same way as ‘texting’ with a mobile phone. For example, for an ‘S’, you would press the button four times. If you make a mistake, the button deletes the last character entered.
Press or to highlight the “Next” box and then press to display the next installation screen. If after doing this you lose the picture on your screen press
to return to the first installation
screen using the default resolution of 720p (supported by all HDTVs).
The signal check screen shows the strength and quality of the Freesat signal received from your satellite dish. The signal lock is successful if both LNB inputs are receiving a valid signal. If the second input is not receiving a valid signal, you will be able to proceed with installation but recording functions of the receiver will not work correctly and a warning message will display. If the first input is not receiving a valid signal, the signal lock will fail and you will not be able to proceed. Check the satellite dish connections at the back of the receiver (switch the receiver off and reconnect the cables if necessary). If the connections are OK, consult your retailer or installer.
When the signal lock shows “Successful”, you can continue to tune in the receiver. Press
to proceed.
Enter your postcode using the number buttons on the remote control. You do not need to enter a space. Press the entered your postcode, and then press
button when you have
again to proceed.
