The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to “dangerous voltage” and to prevent from a risk of electric shock.

Warning: To reduce the risk of electric shock, don’t open the cabinet. Refer servicing to qualified personnel only.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to important operating and maintenance (servicing).

Please read the manual carefully before installing the receiver. Caution: Never open the device by yourself. Dangerously high voltages are present inside the unit. Refer servicing to qualified staff only. When installing the receiver, always unplug the receiver from the mains voltage. Unplug the receiver from the mains in case of long periods without operating the receiver (for example, during holidays!). To prevent shock hazard, do not touch the power plug with wet hands. Always unplug the receiver before cleaning it or working on the connections. Do not install the receiver close to strong heat sources, and ensure a good aeration if you plan to install the receiver in a small cabinet. Before you start operating the receiver, make sure that the satellite antenna is properly built up, optimally connected and aligned. The correct place to install the receiver is, of course, near your TV set and any other A/V signal sources (DVD, VCR, CD, game console, etc.). Choose a stable support, in which you can easily lay the necessary connecting cables without stumblingdanger. The receiver should be installed near an easily accessible outlet. Do not install the receiver in a place where it can be reached by liquid spills. Do not put any heavy objects as, for example, a TV-device over the receiver; the receiver could be damaged.

DO NOT INSTALL THE RECEIVER:

- On an unstable surface

- Subject to direct sunlight

- In high humidity environment

- Outside the receiver’s temperature range (+5°...+40°C)

If the receiver is subject to severe temperature changes, it can suffer from water condensation inside. Switch off the receiver in these cases for at least 2 hours before resuming operation.

QUICK INSTALLATION GUIDE

FOLLOW NEXT STEPS FOR THE CORRECT INSTALLATION OF THIS RECEIVER.

STEP 1: CONNECTIONS

The coaxial cable, with satellite signal, must be connected to the “IF IN” connector. The “TV SCART” connector must be connector to the TV set. The receiver also includes an UHF modulator, allowing connecting a TV set or VCR. However the picture quality will be a little poorer. The modulator has an antenna input and the output range is from channel 21 to 69. This will allow you to mix the existing antenna signals with the output channel generated by the receiver. The modulator output is factory preset to channel 38. You can change the output channel in the TV system menu that you can find in System Setup menu. You will also have to tune your TV set accordingly, in order to receive the picture from the receiver. Depending on the type of installation, the receiver should be connected and configured following next examples.

STEP 2: BASIC CONFIGURATION OF THE

RECEIVER

The receiver includes an installation assistant (Quick Setup) that will help you to setup the different parameters. When the receiver is turned on at first time (using the button at the rear panel of the receiver), the next menu is shown on the TV (Image 1): The receiver is programmed with all the channels of Astra (at position 1 of the DISEqC), Hotbird (at position 2 of the DISEqC), Hispasat (at position 3 of the DISEqC) and Turksat (at position 4 of the DISEqC). If your installation is different to this case, please follow installation steps to search the channels. In order to move through the different options of this menu, please use the keys [ ] of your remote control. If a “Short circuit on the LNB” message is shown on the TV, please check the connections before continuing the installation.

Language

: press [ ] to select languages. The selection of languages include: English, German, French, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish, Turkish, Polish, Hungary and Arabic.

First Audio

: Some channels offer more than one audio language. This function allows you to set the preferred audio language for those channels using [ ]. If a channel offers the same audio language as the “First Audio” you set the system will play this audio language as default. If the channel does not offer this audio language then the system will compare the offered languages with the second audio language. The selections of audio languages include: English, French, German, Russian, Arabic, Portuguese, Turkish, Spanish, Polish and Italian.

Second Audio

: If the channel has no audio language that corresponds with “First Audio” but with “Second Audio” the system will play the second audio language as default. If no audio language corresponds with the “Second Audio” then the default language of the current channel will be played instead. The selections of audio languages include: English, French, German, Russian, Arabic, Portuguese, Turkish, Spanish, Polish and Italian.

LNB Power

: Here you can set the power output to the LNB. If your receiver is connected to the LNB directly then you need to set the LNB Power to “On”. If your receiver is connected to a multi switch (SMATV signal distribution system) then it may be that you don’t need to provide the power to the LNB. But since this is depending on the kind of installed distribution system we recommend you to contact your installer or to refer to the user manual of this system to get the correct information.
