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 Bush 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 Bush receiver on a firm, level surface close to the
television, a mains electricity socket, and the cable from the dish.
(See page 3 - Safety.)
Connect the cable from your dish to the LNB IN socket at the back
of the receiver (if the dish cable is fitted with a wall socket inside
your home, you will need a connecting cable, which you can get
from your installer).
Helpline: 0845 293 8232
HINT: The “F-connector” used for the satellite dish cable
connection 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 Bush
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.
Plug the power cable from the rear of the Bush receiver into an
available mains socket that is turned off.
You can also connect the Bush receiver to a stereo or surround
sound system, so that you can listen to the TV sound through the
sound system instead of (or as well as) the television’s speakers.
If you connect an optical lead (not supplied) between the S/PDIF
sockets on your receiver and digital sound system, you can listen
to the TV sound in digital audio quality, or even in surround sound,
depending on the broadcast and your 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 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
Take off the battery compartment cover from the back of the Bush
receiver remote control by lifting it up while pushing the catch.
Insert the two AAA batteries supplied, as shown on the inside of
the compartment, and replace the compartment cover.

‘Troubleshooting’ on page 40.

television’s manual for guidance).
After a few seconds, the receiver’s first Freesat installation screen
shown below will appear on the television screen:
