MAINS SUPPLY : 90240V AC 50/60Hz
LOCATION : Locate the receiver indoor.

Locate receiver away from potential hazards such as houseplants, lighting, raining and direct sunlight.
OVERLOADING : Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords or adapters as this

can result in fire or electrical shock.

LIQUIDS : Keep liquids away from the receiver.
CLEANING : Before cleaning, disconnect the receiver from the wall socket.

Use a cloth lightly dampened with water (no solvents) to clean the exterior.
VENTILATION : Do not block the receiver ventilation holes. Ensure that free airflow is

maintained around the receiver.
Never set the receiver on soft furnishings or carpets. Do not use or store the receiver
where it is exposed to direct sunlight, or near heater.
Never stack other electronic equipment on top of the receiver.
Place the receiver at least 30mm from the wall.

ATTACHMENTS : Do not use any attachment that is not recommended by the manufacturer,
as it may cause a hazard or damage the equipment.

CONNECTION TO THE SATELLITE DISH LNB : The LNB connector cable has a
voltage in its center core. It is therefore recommended that the receiver is disconnected from
the mains power before connecting or disconnecting this cable.
FAILURE TO DO SO COULD DAMAGE THE LNB.

SERVICING : Do not attempt to service this product yourself. Any attempt to do so will
make the warranty invalid.Refer all servicing to a qualified service agent.

LIGHTNING : If the receiver is installed in an area subject to intense lighting activity,
protection devices for the receiver mains connector and modem telephone line are essential.
The individual manufacturer

s instruction for safeguarding other equipment, such as TV set,

Hi-Fi, etc., connected to the receiver, must also be followed during lighting storms.
GROUNDING : The ground of the LNB cable must be directly connected to the system

ground for the satellite dish. The grounding system must comply with local regulations.

4. Teletext

Your receiver supports the teletext function in two ways. The first method is to draw the teletext
information by itself using the OSD function. The second method is to make your TV set draw the
teletext screen by sending it the appropriate information mixed with the video signal. Your TV set
must have the capability to decode the teletext information for the second case.

When the current channel that you are watching includes the teletext information, you can popup
the teletext screen by pressing “TEXT” key. If this channel also includes the subtitle, the menu for
selecting the teletext or the subtitle will be appeared.

In the teletext screen, you can enter the page number directly by the number keys.
Also you can increase the page number by one using “channel up” key or decrease by one using
“channel down” key.

Function keys are also useful when you are navigating through the pages.
Press “F1” key to go back to the previous page.

Press “F2” key to go the default page. The default page number is “100.”
Press “F3” key to increase the page number by 100.
Press “F4” key to increase the page number by 10.
Press “Exit” key to close the teletext screen

When you do not invoke the teletext screen by pressing “TEXT” key, your receiver will send the
teletext information to the TV set automatically. Use the RCU of your TV set to watch the teletext in
this case.
