2 Please read this first

Before connecting and using the device, first check that everything has been supplied and
familiarise yourself with the safety instructions.

You should have received:

1 Digital receiver, 1 Remote control, 2 Batteries (1.5V micro-cell), 1 HDMI cable,
1 mains cable.

2.1 Safety instructions

For your own protection you should read the safety precautions carefully before using your
new receiver.
The manufacturer accepts no liability for damage caused by inappropriate handling, or by
non-compliance with the safety precautions.

Function-related discharge current may occur with electrical equipment. This is
acceptable and poses no risk, even if it is experienced as a slight tingling.
To prevent such discharge current, mains operated devices (receivers, TVs etc) must
always be installed or connected with the power switched off, i.e. all devices must be
disconnected from the mains.

- Only operate the receiver in a temperate climate.

- To ensure adequate ventilation, place the receiver on a flat, horizontal surface and
do not place any objects on top of it. There are ventilation slots here to allow heat to
be dissipated from the interior of the unit.

- Do not place any burning objects, such as lit candles, on top of the receiver.

- Do not expose the receiver to water droplets or water spray, and do not place
any objects filled with liquid, such as vases, on top of it. If water gets into the unit,
immediately remove the mains plug and inform the service department.

- Do not operate any sources of heat near the receiver which may also heat it up.

- Do not obstruct the ventilation slots.

3

- Do not open the receiver housing under any circumstances! You risk receiving an
electric shock. Any necessary repairs to the receiver should only be carried out by
qualified service personnel.

In the following circumstances you should disconnect the device from the mains power
and consult an expert:

> the power cable or mains plug is damaged

> the device has been exposed to moisture or liquid has got into it

> there are significant malfunctions

> there is severe external damage

2.2 Periods of non-use

During a storm or lengthy period of non-use (e.g. holiday), the receiver should be
disconnected from the mains and the antenna cable removed.
Before you disconnect the receiver from the mains, you should first switch it to standby
mode and wait until the time appears in the display or the red LED light is displayed.

2.3 Important notes on operation

Operation of the digital receiver is simplified through the use of so-called "On Screen
Displays" (OSD). This also means that the number of keys on the remote control unit is
reduced.

All functions are displayed on screen, and can be controlled by means of a few control
buttons.

Functions that are logically related are combined into a "MENU". The selected function will
be highlighted.

The red, yellow, blue and green function keys are indicated by coloured bars at the bottom
of the screen. In the various menus, these coloured bars represent different functions, which
can be implemented by pressing the appropriately coloured keys (multi-function keys) on the
remote control. The function keys are only activated when a brief description is displayed in
the appropriate field.
The button identifications and terms that appear in the OSD menu are shown in bold type
in this operating manual.

Help: where available, press the blue function key in the menus to display the help text;
press again to close the help window.

2.4 Important information on data security

Before handing your receiver over to your supplier for maintenance purposes, we
recommend that you remove all storage media or data carriers.

Restoring data is not part of maintenance or repair work. TechniSat accepts no responsibility
for the loss of, or damage to, data during repair work.

2.5 Disposal advice

The packaging material used for your receiver consists entirely of recyclable materials.
Please sort the components appropriately, and dispose of them in line with your local waste
disposal regulations.

At the end of its useful life span, this receiver may not be disposed of with your regular
household waste. It must be taken to a recycling collection point for electrical and electronic
equipment.

This is indicated by the

symbol on the product, the operating manual or the packaging.

The materials used can be re-used in accordance with their labelling.
By ensuring that valuable raw materials in old equipment are re-used, you can make a
valuable contribution towards protecting our environment.

Please contact your local authority for the location of the nearest recycling point.

Please ensure that spent batteries removed from the remote control and electronic waste
items are not sent to your regular household refuse site, but are correctly disposed of (either
in special bins for problem waste, or at collection points in the retail trade).
