After the digital switchover some Freeview channels will move to diffe-

rent frequencies.
When this happens, you will lose some (or even all) channels in some areas.
This loss of channels may also arise occasionally due to some network chan­ges. To recover the channels, you can reset your zapbox to factory default, as
explained in section §7-C page 14.

The operation is even simpler with your Eco zapbox which features the SOS
key. Simply press and hold the blue key marked SOS on the remote control for
3 seconds and your receiver will automatically start an “auto-retune” scan for
easy and fast channel recovery.
