back a recording you made earlier.

The box will need to be connected to
the satellite dish with two cables. If you

Pressing standby while recording won’t
stop the recording. Your Freesat box will
go into standby when the recording has

even if you’re not recording.

So if you decide that you want to record
a programme part way through, press

R

and it will record from the point

you tuned to that channel.
