SOME DOS AND DON'TS ON THE SAFE USE OF EQUIPMENT
This equipment has been designed and manufactured to meet international safety standards but, like any electrical equipment, care must be taken if you are to obtain the best results and safety is to be assured.
DO read the operating instructions before you attempt to use the equipment. DO ensure that all electrical connections (including the mains plug, extension leads and inter-connections between
the pieces of equipment) are properly made and in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. Switch off and withdraw the mains plug before making or changing connections.
DO consult your dealer if you are ever in doubt about the installation, operation or safety of your equipment. DO be careful with glass panels or doors on equipment. DO route the mains lead so that it is not likely to be walked on, crushed, chafed, or subjected to excessive wear
and tear or heat.
DON'T remove any fixed cover as this may expose dangerous voltages. DON'T obstruct the ventilation openings of the equipment with items such as newspapers, tablecloths, curtains,
etc. Overheating will cause damage and shorten the life of the equipment. DON'T allow electrical equipment to be exposed to dripping or splashing, or objects filled with liquids, such as vases, to be placed on the equipment. DON'T place hot objects or naked flame sources such as lighted candles or nightlights on, or close to equipment. High temperatures can melt plastic and lead to fires. DON'T use makeshift stands and NEVER fix legs with wood screws - to ensure complete safety always fit the manufacturer's approved stand or legs with the fixings provided according to the instructions. DON'T use equipment such as personal stereos or radios so that you are distracted from the requirements of traffic safety. It is illegal to watch television whilst driving. DON'T listen to headphones at high volume, as such use can permanently damage your hearing. DON'T leave equipment switched on when it is unattended unless it is specifically stated that it is designed for unattended operation or has a stand-by mode. Switch off using the switch on the equipment and make sure that your family know how to do this. Special arrangements may need to be made for infirm or handicapped people. DON'T continue to operate the equipment if you are in any doubt about it working normally, or if it is damaged in any way - switch off, withdraw the mains plug and consult your dealer.
ABOVE ALL
--- NEVER let anyone especially children push anything into holes, slots or any other opening in the case ­this could result in a fatal electrical shock;
--- NEVER guess or take chances with electrical equipment of any kind it is better to be safe than sorry!

POWER CORD (MAINS LEAD)
Do not place the product where a piece of furniture or other heavy object could trap the power cord (mains lead). Handle the power cord by the plug. Do not pull out the plug by tugging the cord and never touch the power cord when your hands are wet as this could cause a short circuit or electric shock. Never make a knot in the cord or tie it with other cords. The power cords should be routed in such a way that they are not likely to be stepped on. A damaged power cord can cause fire or give you an electrical shock. Check the power cord periodically to see if it is damaged. If it is damaged, please ask an approved service agent to replace it.
For your own safety read following instructions carefully before attempting to connect this device to the mains.
This unit is designed to operate on a 220V-240V AC - 50Hz supply only. Connecting it to other power sources may damage it. Ensure that the supply corresponds to the information on the rating label on the bottom of the unit.
This digital terrestrial receiver is supplied with a moulded mains plug. This plug must not be cut off as it may contain a special radio interference filter, the removal of which could lead to impaired performance. If you wish to extend the lead, obtain an appropriate safety approved extension lead or consult your dealer.
Observe the manufacturers instructions when connecting extension leads to the set. Check the fuse rating on the new plug, this should be fitted with a 5 Amp fuse which conforms to either ASTA or BSI (BS1362) approvals, these
are easily identifiable by either the or symbols. If you are in any doubt about the installation of an extension lead, please consult a competent electrician.
CAUTION
To prevent electric shock, do not remove the cover. No user servicable parts inside. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel. Disconnect from the mains supply before cleaning.
This symbol means that this unit is double insulated. An earth connection is not required.
2. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Power Source.
This unit should only be connected to a 220-240V AC 50-60 Hz power supply. Do not connect to any other supply.
Power Lead.
Do not place the lead where it may be stepped on or tripped over. Do not place heavy objects on the lead. If the lead becomes cut or damaged, please disconnect the unit from the mains supply.
The mains plug or the appliance coupler is used as the disconnect device, the disconnect device shall remain readily operable.
Location.
Place on a solid base such as a shelf or in a TV cabinet or similar. Do not place near heat sources such as radiators, fires or similar.
Do not block ventilation holes or place in a location that does not allow a free airflow.

3. PREPARING
3.1. REMOTE CONTROL
First open the battery cover on the underside of the remote control. Put in both batteries 1.5Volt (RO3/AAA) referring to the imprinted symbols (+/-) in the battery case and put on the battery cover again. While using the remote control, direct it towards the front side of the receiver. If the remote control does not work or the chosen function does not work, the batteries are most probably exhausted and they should be replaced as soon as possible. Please use only the leak proof batteries. It is best to remove the batteries from the remote unit if you will not be using the remote control unit for long time.
3.2. CONNECTIONS
3.2.1. CONNECTION TO THE TV
Connect your set top box (STB) with the scart lead supplied, from the TV socket on the STB to the scart socket on your TV. If your TV does not have a scart socket, you will need to purchase a suitable scart adapter lead.
This STB has RGB or CVBS outputs from the scart socket. If your TV has RGB inputs you may select this in the STB Configuration menu for best results.

3.2.2. CONNECTION TO A VCR
Hi-Fi
1) Connect one end of a SCART cable to the TV SCART connector on the STB and the other end to a SCART
socket on your TV
2) Connect one end of a second SCART cable to the VCR SCART connector on the STB and the other end to a SCART Socket on your VCR (Video Cassette Recorder).
Ø When the receiver is in standby mode: When connected device (VCR or DVD) is switched on, the device will
be automatically routed to TV.
Ø When the receiver is on: If the VCR or DVD is selected this will be routed to the TV. If the VCR or DVD is not
selected the TV will display the STB.
