Receiving digital stations
To use your new DTR 1560 MICRO digital receiver you need a digital outdoor or indoor antenna.
Unlike analogue broadcasting, not every station has its own trans­mission frequency. Instead, several stations are grouped into what are known as bouquets on a regional or national level.
You can find the current transmission information on teletext from various broadcasters, or look in a TV guide or on the Internet.
Special features of your digital receiver
The DTR 1560 MICRO digital receiver can receive and process all unencrypted digital stations. This digital receiver has a built-in digital receiver unit. The receiver unit converts the signals from digital stations to provide outstanding audio and picture quality.
The TV guide tells you of any schedule changes at short notice, and provides an overview of all the stations’ schedules for the next few hours. If the broadcaster provides it, you can call up detailed information on each programme at the touch of a button.
This digital receiver has a very comprehensive, user-friendly menu system. The menu is displayed on the television screen, and the functions of the remote control buttons are explained.

SET-UP AND SAFETY___________________________
To ensure that this high quality, easy-to-use digital receiver gives you lasting entertainment and enjoyment, please note the following information.
This digital receiver is designed to receive, record and play back video and audio signals. Any other use is expressly prohibited.
When setting up the device, make sure the mains plug is easily accessible.
If the digital receiver is subject to a sudden change in temperature, for example when brought in from the cold to a warm room, let it stand for at least two hours before you connect it to the mains supply.
Do not expose the digital receiver to any moisture. The digital receiver is designed for use in dry rooms. If you do use it outdoors, please ensure that it is protected from moisture, such as rain or splashing water.
Thunderstorms are a danger to all electrical devices. Even if the digital receiver is switched off, it can be damaged by a lightning strike to the mains or the antenna. Always disconnect the mains and antenna plugs during a storm.
Never open the digital receiver casing under any circumstances. Warranty claims are excluded for damage resulting from improper handling.
Note:
Do not connect any other equipment while the device is switched on. Switch off the other equipment as well before connecting it. Only plug the device into the mains socket after you have connected the external devices and the antenna.

Additional Information for units sold in the UK.
Units sold in the UK are suitable for operation from a 240V ac, 50Hz mains supply. The range of multi-system receivers is built to work in most European coun­tries. However, the mains plug and socket system for the UK differs from many European countries. This appliance has been supplied with a fitted, non-removable, approved converter plug for use in the UK. This converter plug is fitted with a 5A rated fuse.
In case this appliance is supplied with a moulded 2-pin Euro plug only, which is unsuitable for UK operation, this must be cut off and immediately disposed of. An approved 13A, 3-pin UK plug should then be fitted by a qualified electrician.
Note:
The severed Euro plug must be destroyed to avoid a possible shock hazard should it be inserted into a socket elsewhere.
If a non-rewireable 3-pin plug or a rewireable 13A (BS1363) 3-pin plug is used, it must be fitted with a 5A ASTA or BSI approved BS1362 fuse. If any other type of plug is used it must be protected by a 5A fuse either in the plug, or at the distribution board. If this type of plug becomes defective, ensure that the fuse is removed before disposal, to eliminate potential shock hazard.
If it is necessary to change the fuse in the non-rewireable plug, the correct type and rating (5A ASTA or BSI approved BS1362) must be used and the fuse cover must be refitted. If the fuse cover is lost or damaged, the lead and plug must not be used until a replacement is obtained. Replacement fuse covers should be obtained from your dealer.
Important:
The wires in the mains lead are colour coded in accordance with the follo­wing code:
BLUE – NEUTRAL BROWN – LIVE
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of your appliance may not cor­respond with the coloured marking identifying terminals in your plug, pro­ceed as follows:
Connect the BLUE coloured wire to plug terminal marked with the letter “N” or coloured black. Connect the BROWN coloured wire to the plug terminal marked with the let­ter “L” or coloured red. In no circumstance must any of the wires be connected to the terminal mar­ked with the letter “E”, earth symbol “
z”, coloured green, or green & yel-
low.
