Introduction
English
Thank you for purchasing this product which has been
designed and manufactured to give you many years of
trouble-free service.
About This User Guide
This user guide contains all the information you need to
know about how to setup and watch available 'Freeview'
channels using your set top box.
What is Freeview?
It is the new, free digital service currently providing up to
30 free digital TV channels, over 20 digital radio stations
plus a whole new world of interactive services. It's broadcast from transmitters and received via a rooftop aerial.
It works like traditional TV, but because the signals are
digital you need a set top box to convert them. This
means more channels can be transmitted with extra features such as interactivity and widescreen pictures.
