introduction

Congratulations on your choice of this state-of-the-art Digital Television

Recorder (DTR). we hope you will enjoy all the new features this technology brings to your home for many years. Your DTR is going to revolutionise the way you watch TV.

You can pause live TV, for example while you answer the phone and then resume watching where you left off. You can also record two different channels at the same time. Delayed viewing, fast-forward and rewind functions allow you to play and replay the sports action without having to worry about the rest of the game which is still being recorded. These features could make you lose track of time, but fortunately the LiVe TV button brings you back to the present instantly. we’re sure that you want to get started. on the following pages are a quick start guide to help you set the DTR up in just six easy steps. on page 11 there is a guide on Using Your DTR Remote Control. There are detailed explanations for each step later on in the manual and on page 44 you will find the terms and conditions covering your DTR.

if you need any further information about your DTR, or want to see more information about the programmes currently on Top Up TV, then just visit topuptv.com

iMpoRTANT: Disconnect the power to all your existing equipment.

Now place your DTR where you want to keep it and connect it to your TV as shown in the diagram, by following these simple instructions:

A Unplug the aerial cable from your VCR (or TV) and plug it into the

Aerial in socket of your DTR.

B

Using the SCART lead, connect the TV SCART socket on your DTR to the AV1/eXT1/AUX1 SCART socket at the back of your TV.

C Connect the mains lead to the mains socket and switch on at the mains.

Reconnect the power to all your existing equipment and turn your TV on.

when you plug your DTR into the power supply, a red light and the message pLS wAiT will be displayed. This will be followed by weLCoMe To Top Up

TV+, the hDD symbol will flash for about 45 seconds. You must wait for the hDD symbol to stop flashing and the display to go dim before pressing any buttons.

Step 3 – Your DTR is ready to scan for channels press the DTR button on your remote. The button will momentarily flash.

This will confirm that the remote control is working correctly. Now wait for the light on the front of your DTR to turn from red to green.

Your TV should now automatically switch to the DTR input and display the image shown. if this does not happen, using your TV remote, manually select the TV SCART input to which you have connected your DTR.

Step 4 – Channel Scan

You will see this screen showing that your DTR is now searching for all available channels.

in the event that your DTR does not find any channels, or has missed some, see the section on what to do if your installation fails, on page 10.

when your DTR has successfully found all channels, your DTR will search for and install the extended 14 day programme guide software. please note that when you start to use the extended guide after installation, that this may take up to 24 hours to fully populate.

Step 5 – parental Control

You will now be prompted to set up the parental Control piN for your DTR. for Top Up TV subscribers, this controls who will have access to the extra programmes, which are downloaded automatically to your DTR every night.

The parental Control piN will not control or restrict access to freeview programmes (your default piN is 0000.) if children have access to your DTR, it is advisable to select the maximum appropriate viewing certification now, in order to restrict access. e.g. by selecting 12, you will restrict access to programmes rated 15 or higher.

8 for more parental control options please refer to page 28.

Step 6 – Top Up TV Anytime set up with Top Up TV Anytime you’ll get up to 600 carefully selected programmes downloaded to your Top Up TV+ DTR every month.

30 movies a month or take Setanta Sports, a must-have for sports fans.

finally, when you have finished making adjustments, use the

BACK button to return to the TV picture. You may need to press it more than once, depending on the menu item.

Using the programme guide

Your DTR has access to two programme guides. initially your DTR will provide the standard freeview 7 day programme guide, but as soon as your DTR has acquired the Top Up TV on-screen programming guide, you will have access to 14 day listings. The programme guide screen gives you a fast way of planning your viewing and recording. To access this guide, press the gUiDe button.

The guide shows the next three periods of 30 minutes, for each channel. while in the programme guide, you can navigate around using the arrow buttons. Up / DowN arrows will move between channels, while the LefT and RighT arrows move in time. The guide is split into three sections of

30 minutes each. The information contained in a time segment usually shows the name of the programme. This is only the case when the programme takes up the whole of that 30 minute time slot. As programmes can be longer or shorter than 30 minutes, the programme guide has been constructed to inform you of this.

if a programme is longer than 30 minutes the next time slot shows three dots to indicate that the programme runs in to the next slot. if a programme is shorter that 30 minutes the programme name is followed by an arrow to indicate that more than one programme exists in that slot. if a programme does not start exactly on the time boundary, it will have two dots in front of the programme name to indicate that it starts later than the time shown in the column heading. if you leave the highlighter box over a programme for more than five seconds, a box will appear showing a synopsis of the programme. it also shows the start and end times for that programme in the top right-hand corner.

15

Across the bottom of the screen are a number of functions that can be activated by pressing the coloured buttons on your remote control.

go to day

pressing the gReeN button will bring up an overlay box

(pop-up). This is the go To DAY menu.

Using the Up and DowN arrows you will move the highlighter to a day in the future. pressing oK will take you back to the programme guide, but now the guide is showing programmes on the day you selected. from here you can set up recordings or reminders.

Set reminder

pressing the YeLLow button will add a reminder to the currently highlighted programme.

You can see i f you have set a reminder as the reminder icon will appear next to the programme name. if you wish to cancel the reminder, press the YeLLow button again.

when that event arrives, you will be reminded by a pop-up which will appear on-screen.

You can accept the reminder by pressing the gReeN button to watch the programme or cancel it with the ReD button.

Record

pressing the button will take you to the pLANNeD

ReCoRDiNgS screen. press the button again to add the recording to the planned recordings list. when you go back to the TV guide, you will see next to the planned recording.

for more information on planned recordings, please refer to ‘how to make Recordings’ on page 21.

Top Up TV Anytime

in addition to the standard freeview channels, your DTR can also give you access to a wider range of programmes on

Top Up TV Anytime.

By subscribing to Top Up TV Anytime for a small monthly fee, your DTR will automatically record and download programmes from channels such as Discovery,

UKTV gold, warner TV, the Disney Channel, National geographic channel and more, for you to watch whenever it suits you.

The extra channels are shown across the bottom of the programme guide screen.

pressing the Top Up TV button on your remote enables you to view the list of programmes available to watch right now. Then you simply use the LefT and RighT arrow buttons to scroll through and press oK on anything you want to watch.

To subscribe to the extra programming and choice that

Top Up TV brings call now on

programme Search

The powerful search facility allows for searching the entire programme guide and programme Library.

Note: To select the search facility use the ReD button in the guide, to record programmes from the guide use the

ReCoRD button.

Use the NUMBeReD buttons on your remote control to enter text. enter either as much of the channel name or the programme title as you know and a list of programmes matching your search request will appear allowing you to watch or record the programmes. for example, entering ‘bbc’ as a channel name will return results for all channels starting with the text ‘bbc’ (BBC oNe, BBC Two, BBC ThRee, etc.) whereas entering ‘bbc o’ will return results for BBC oNe.

17

18

Note: Buttons 0 and 1 provide punctuation such as spaces and full-stops. if you enter the wrong character, use the LefT and RighT arrows to move the cursor. Use the ReD button to delete a character and gReeN to insert.

To move between the search criterias use the RewiND and fAST-foRwARD buttons. Use the CoLoUR buttons to delete and insert as indicated on screen. Date and time options are also selected using the CoLoUR buttons. when selecting the time, the NUMBeR buttons can be used to enter the time. The search results can also be refreshed by pressing the oK button.

To select a programme in the search results, press

DowN and the cursor will move into the search results list. The CoLoUR buttons can then be used to either watch or record any of the programmes. The iNfo button can be used to display a synopsis of the programme. The pg+ and pg- buttons can be used to page through the search results. Use the

CoLoUR buttons to return to the search criteria in order to refine your search.

Using your programme Library

Your programme Library is where all of your recorded and

Top Up TV Anytime programmes are stored. To access it, press the LiBRARY button or option 2 from the Main

Menu.

Your programme Library will be empty at first, but as you start to record programmes and Top Up TV Anytime programmes are downloaded to your DTR, it will fill up. Note that it will take 7 days from set up for your Top Up TV Anytime programmes to be fully downloaded.

Your programme Library is partitioned into two sections.

The top section shows your recorded programmes, and any Top Up TV Anytime programmes that you have saved. You can store recordings here and delete them once you’ve watched them. To delete a recording, use the arrow keys to highlight the recording and press the BLUe button. Note that to manage the space available in both sections, you need to customise your Top Up TV Anytime viewing – see page 26 for full details.

The bottom section is where your Top Up TV Anytime programmes are stored. You will notice that the screen appears slightly different. There are two differences. The first and most important is the Days Left column, and the second is the red SAVe button.

Days Left

This shows how many days the programme will remain stored on your DTR before it is automatically deleted and replaced with new programmes. You may watch the programme at anytime, but if the

Days Left number reaches zero, you only have a few hours left before the programme is overwritten. if you would like to watch the programme, but do not have time within the time remaining, you can move the programme to the top section by pressing the ReD button. The programme will now appear in the top sections of the programme Library and the Days Left will show Saved. for some programmes, rights restrictions means we are unfortunately not able to offer the Save feature.

There are a number of functions that are common to both storage areas: if you pause the highlighter over a programme, that programme will automatically start playing in the small preview window on the right-hand side of the screen. if you wish to watch the programme, press the oK button. if you had previously not finished watching a programme, press the gReeN button to resume the playback from the last watched point.

You can always access the Top Up TV programmes by pressing the Top Up TV button.

19

20 folders

programmes on y our DTR are automatically placed in folders to help organise your library and make them easy to find later. each recording can reside in more than one folder, the ALL category and typically one other genre folder, for example, Movies, Sport, Kids etc. To move between folders use the LefT and RighT arrow buttons.

To highlight a programme use the Up and DowN buttons. To view the programme, press the oK button.

Synopsis

with the highlighter over a recording, pressing the iNfo button will pop-up a small window with a brief summary of the contents of that given programme. press iNfo again to exit synopsis.

Delete

with the highlighter over a recording, press the BLUe button. You will see a confirmation pop-up to confirm that you wish to delete the programme or exit without deleting.

icons

There are two icons used to assist you in managing your programme Library.

The P at the end of the programme name field is used to indicate that a programme has been watched.

The at the end of the programme name field is used to indicate that a programme is currently

‘playing’.

pop-ups

finally, you need to be aware of a few pop-ups that may appear to help you with your selections.

Depending upon the way you have set-up your DTR, or if you have not set-up enough storage space on your

DTR or you have simply run out of space, your DTR will prompt you that there is not enough space to store your selection. if this happens, you will need to delete some of your recordings if you wish to save additional programmes.

Also, a similar pop-up may appear if you are saving a programme that will limit the storage space for any future recording. in this instance you may save this programme, but you should also go to the planned Recordings menu to make sure you have enough space and if necessary delete old recordings.

how to make Recordings

Your DTR will allow you to customise the way your record a programme.

in this section, we will show you just what options are available to you. Typically you will have pressed the button in the programme guide which will have automatically taken you to this screen, but you may also wish to set a recording manually. if you have arrived at this screen via the programme guide, simply press the button to accept the default settings and your recording will be added to the list and completed without further interaction. if you wish to set-up a manual recording via the planned

Recordings menu, you will typically be presented with a virtually blank screen as shown. press the gReeN button to continue and you will be prompted to enter the channel, date, start and stop times. Use the LefT and RighT arrow buttons to amend the detail of the selections, and the Up and DowN arrow buttons to move between the settings. finally press the button to add the event to your planned Recordings list.

instant record

if while watching a programme you decide you wish to record it, press the button on your remote control and hold for 3 seconds. Y our DTR will automatically record the programme to the end of the scheduled time and add any of that programme that exists in your review buffer.

editing an event

There may be an occasion where you wish to adjust the recording (event) that you are setting.

This DTR allows you to change both the start time (TiMe) and the duration of a recording.

entering a recording from the programme guide or manually from the planned Recordings menu, the highlighter will be positioned over the pRogRAMMe field. press the RighT arrow button to move the highlighter over the TiMe field. Use the gReeN or YeLLow buttons to increase or decrease the start time. You can also move the highlighter to the DURATioN field again with the RighT arrow and use the gReeN or YeLLow buttons to increase or decrease the recording duration. once satisfied with your adjustments, press the button to add this recording to the list.

why edit an event?

There may be occasions where multiple recordings overlap and your DTR will warn you that two recordings collide. You may know that the programme you wish to record has moved due to an over-run of a previous programme. or simply, you know that the part of the programme you are interested in starts later than the actual programme start time; for example, a football match. editing the timing will allow you to record programmes that would otherwise conflict with each other and save space on your DTR for future recordings.

Your DTR is also capable of automatically adding time to a recording to guard against programme over-run. please refer to page 27 for more information on guard Times.

21

22

Space for recordings

when you add a recording to the planned Recordings, your DTR will check to see if there is enough space to complete all the scheduled recordings. if there is a risk that there is not enough space, you will see this pop-up. You have the option to cancel the recording or continue with the event. if you continue with the recording, you should go to the programme Library menu and try to clear space by deleting programmes that you have already watched and no longer wish to keep. if you do not make space, you may lose the end of your recording or fail to be able to record further programmes.

Simultaneous recordings

Your DTR has two tuners which means that it is capable of recording two different programmes at the same time. in the event that you try to record more than two programmes at the same time, your DTR will alert you to this overlap with the pop-up shown.

Make a note of this overlap and go back to the planned Recordings main menu. find the programmes that overlap and look to see if you can manually change the start times or durations of the overlapping events to resolve the conflict. This will still enable you to record the programmes you wish and not miss anything of significance.

Series link

Some programmes are broadcast with special tags that indicate that the programme is part of a series. if while setting a recording your DTR detects this tag, it will advise you with this pop-up. You now have three options; cancel the recording (ReD button), record all programmes with that ‘Series link tag’ (gReeN button) or just that specific programme and remove the Series link (YeLLow) button. when you go back to the programme guide, you will see that a series link icon has been added to the programme name. it looks like this

Recording while Top Up TV Anytime programmes are updating

if you have subscribed to Top Up TV Anytime, whilst automatic

Top Up TV Anytime updates are being recorded (usually at night), your DTR will be using both tuners to record programmes into your Top Up TV Library. if you also want to record another programme at the same time, you may see this screen. Your DTR will tell you which Top Up

TV Anytime programmes will be affected, allowing you to choose which recording is more important to you and which recording(s) should not to be made.

Additional DTR functions

Tuner swap

Your DTR has two tuners which means it can receive two different channels at the same time.

You can switch between these two channels by pressing 0 on your remote control. if that channel is paused, it will automatically switch to play to allow you to watch the programme. furthermore, if you are watching a recorded programme, your DTR will pause that programme and switch to the programme currently being received by one of the tuners. pressing 0 again will switch to the other tuner and pressing 0 again will return you to your recorded programme and resume playback.

watch whilst recording

This is the ability to view a programme that is currently being recorded as part of a scheduled record or an instant record process. There are two ways to view a programme while it is being recorded. from planned Recordings highlight the programme you wish to watch and press the ReD button on your remote control. This will start the programme from the beginning.

You can also change channels to the one that is recording your programme and use trick modes such as RewiND to move back through the recording to your desired point.

pause, rewind & fast forward

These are functions that enable you to move forward or rewind through a recording. There a nine incremental speeds for both forward and rewind, these are x 1 /

4

Customising Top Up TV Anytime

one of the great things about Top Up TV Anytime is that you don’t have to download all the programmes available. You can choose to record and download only those programmes from channels you watch. So for example, if you don’t have kids, you can save space on your hard drive by de-selecting the kids channels, giving you more space to download those you do want to watch. Customising your channels is easy and should be done to ensure you maximise the amount of space you have available for your own recordings. This menu presents a list of available Top Up TV Anytime channels. Use the LefT and RighT arrow buttons to move between columns. Use the Up and DowN arrows to move the highlighter over a channel for activation. press the ReD button to activate the channel.

Note the two times on the bottom of the screen.

The Top Up TV (TUTV) hours per week will change as you activate or de-activate channels. The available space left for personal recordings on your DTR’s hard disk drive (storage space) is shown on the far right.

in some cases there will be insufficient free storage space in the personal Disk Space area to re-assign for Top Up TV Anytime use. in this case, a pop-up will be displayed as shown to enable you to remove content from the Record Library. Use the Up and DowN arrows to select a programme and then delete it by pressing the ReD button. once you have created enough space, you can activate the new channel by pressing the gReeN button. To exit this menu press the YeLLow button.

You may attempt to activate a channel for which you do not have the right level of subscription. if this occurs, you will be taken to the Subscription screen. follow the steps on screen to change your subscription.

warnings

There are some warnings that may pop-up as a result of some of your selections / actions.

The first of these may be if you de-activate a Top Up TV Anytime channel. The warning will inform you that if you de-activate this channel, you will no longer receive any of that channel’s programmes and will delete any recordings made from that channel.

The second warning you may see is in activating a new channel, you may not have enough space on your disk drive for planned recordings. The warning will advise you to review your planned

Recordings as soon as possible. please refer to page 20 on how to make space by deleting unwanted recordings.

Recording preferences

There are two options available to change, the guard time and the rewind buffer size. Use the Up and DowN arrow buttons to move between the two options and the

LefT and RighT arrows to scroll through the available values for that option.

Recording guard time

A guard time is a small amount of time added to the start and end of a recording to help protect against programmes starting slightly ahead of schedule or more typically over-running their scheduled finishing time. There is obviously a small penalty for this feature which is that you will use up more space for each recording with a guard time set. The available settings are off, 1, 3 or 5 minutes. As you can see the default setting is off to maximise the available disk space for recordings.

pause live TV

Your DTR automatically records and buffers the channel you are currently watching. The size of this record buffer is set to 30 minutes. This means that you can pause and rewind the channel you are watching back by 30 minutes, or by the amount of time you have set as the pause live TV buffer size. As with the guard times, this obviously takes up space on your hard disk drive for recording other programmes so if you do not use this feature you can turn it off to increase the available space for recordings. The available settings are off, 15, 30, 45 or 60 minutes. if while watching a programme you decide to record it, your DTR will use as much of the buffer as is available to add to your recording in an attempt to record the whole of the programme from the start.

Messages

occasionally, events may occur that your DTR stores for your information. for example, your DTR is capable of having its software upgraded automatically via the aerial. if you have any messages waiting to be read, a small envelope icon will appear as shown. To view any messages, select Messages from the Main Menu or Set-Up menu. once you have read your messages, you may delete them by pressing the ReD button.

Child Lock

This menu option enables you to set-up parental

Control levels and to determine the access you and your family have to programmes. As soon as you select this option, you will be prompted to enter your personal identification Number (piN). The default number for this is 0000. it is highly recommended that you change this number as soon as possible. once you have entered a valid piN you are given the option to change the piN by pressing the ReD button and following the simple steps on-screen.

Maximum Certificate

This sets the maximum certificate value allowed on any viewed content (live or recorded). if at anytime a user tries to view programmes with a certificate higher than the maximum certificate allowed, the DTR will blank the screen, mute the audio and pop-up the piN entry window. Unless a valid piN is entered, the programme cannot be viewed. The available settings are; U, pg, 12, 15, g or 18. Note that the default is 18 which means that there is no automatic block of any content from being viewed. You should lower this to a level suitable for the people with access to your DTR.

Note that setting a certificate does not limit the programmes that can be recorded, only what can be viewed. This allows viewing decisions to be made when the viewer is present. This may not be foolproof – we rely on broadcasters to rate their programmes appropriately.

Lock period Start & Lock period end

This allows the DTR to be locked down during the START and eND times. Use the LefT and RighT arrow buttons to amend the time in 15 minute steps. in both cases, the default value is off.

Lock once you have set lock periods, you will have to activate them by setting Lock on. Likewise, you can also turn lock

periods off with this option.

Channel Lock

This menu allows you to individually lock selected channels. each time a locked channel is selected to be watched you will be required to enter your piN.

Languages

preferred audio language

This option sets the preferred Audio Language output. in a multi-language broadcast, your

DTR will attempt to acquire your preferred language. if your preferred language is not available, your DTR will switch to the default language. preferred subtitle language

This has the same action as preferred Language, but for Subtitles in place of the audio output itself.

To select an option, use the Up or DowN arrow buttons. To scroll around the possible languages, use the LefT and RighT arrow buttons. The default

Language is english and the available options are welsh and gaelic.

help

This is a high level information screen that will tell you basic information about your DTR. if you require further assistance please call the telephone number shown on-screen in the help menu which is option 6 in the Set-Up menu.

There is also an option to press the ReD button for tuning information. This screen shows the current status of the two tuners, what channel number they are currently set to and the

Strength & Quality of the signals being received. You can also change the channel a given tuner is set to with the coloured buttons; ReD & gReeN for Tuner 1 or YeLLow & BLUe for

Tuner 2.

Changing the channels that the tuners are set to may result in you losing scheduled recordings. please use this screen with care or wait to be advised on how to use this screen by one of our Customer Care Advisers.

Troubleshooting

Reception problems

when you purchased your DTR, your dealer should have checked your postcode to ensure that you can receive digital terrestrial TV. if you wish to check this yourself, please look on the internet websites:- www.freeview.co.uk

or www.digitaluk.co.uk

once you have established that your area should be able to receive digital terrestrial TV, there are a few reasons why you may be experiencing problems.

• Your current aerial and cabling may not be able to receive all the digital channels due to its age and condition. Now is the time to renew them. we recommend the use of CAi “Benchmarked” aerials. Look for the logo.

Always use good quality, double screened aerial cable. e.g. CT100 coaxial cable.

Standard

• In your location the digital channels may be transmitted on different frequencies to your existing analogue signals and you may need a different type of aerial to receive them.

Check the ‘group’ of your aerial, you may need a ‘wideband’ one.

• The new digital channels may be transmitted from a new transmitter and if this is the case the aerial would have to be re-aligned. Alternatively, add a second aerial to your system.

• If you need to use a mast-head amplifier, make sure that it is a digitally compatible one and that it is as close to the aerial as possible.

• In some blocks of flats, filters may be in use that will interfere with digital signals. Consult with your landlord if you have difficulties.

• Indoor or window mounted aerials are not recommended, except in areas where the signal is extremely strong.

• Your aerial could be too high. Try adjusting the height of the aerial to avoid picking up unwanted signals from other transmitters.

• If you live near a road, the passing traffic may cause problems. Try pointing the aerial at an upward angle over the road, this helps reduce engine interference picked up by the aerial.

• If you get periodic picture losses, this could be due to electrical interference picked up in your house. This could be from a central heating thermostat, a fridge/freezer, or any other item with a motor. Try switching these appliances off temporarily to establish what is causing the problem. Then replace the problem item.

• If your aerial comes into your room via an aerial connection point (socket), replace it with a good quality shielded one. This will help prevent electrical noise entering your aerial.

problems after installation

Not every picture or sound problem is caused by a defect in your DTR. Leads having been accidentally pulled out or worn out batteries in the remote control can also cause impairment. if your unit does something unexpected while you are using it, please unplug it, wait a few seconds, plug it in again, then wait for the lights on your DTR to change to solid ReD or gReeN. if this fails to solve the problem or the following measures do not bring about satisfactory results, please consult an authorized dealer.

Tuner conflict resolution

in some cases there may not be enough tuners for all the functions your DTR is trying to perform, for example if two recordings are taking place and you try to change channels, you will see this pop-up menu. if you really wish to change channels, go to the planned Recordings menu and cancel the recording. pressing the ReD button will take you to

the planned Recordings menu.

Top Up TV Anytime conflict resolution

watching live TV may conflict with the requirement to record Top Up TV Anytime programmes. This may occur if you are watching a programme when the

Top Up TV Anytime programmes start, you switch on your DTR while Top Up TV Anytime programmes are being recorded or you are watching a Top Up

TV Anytime programme but then try to change channels. in the event of a conflict, you will see this pop-up. if you press the ReD button, you will continue to record the Top Up TV Anytime programmes, however, if you press the gReeN button the Top Up TV Anytime recordings will be abandoned and your DTR will be considered to be in override mode.

Your DTR will remain in override mode for one hour or until it is placed in standby.

in the same way, if your DTR is trying to collect TV listings or Top Up TV Anytime information, your

DTR will pop-up this warning. if you press the ReD button, you will continue to collect the required information, however, if you press the gReeN button the task will be abandoned.

32

By overriding this task, your DTR may fail to update the TV listings and as a consequence, may fail to record Top Up TV Anytime programmes.

Loss of signal

if your DTR can not detect a signal, it will present this icon in the top centre of your TV screen.

Check all connections or refer to Reception problems on page 30.

if your DTR fails to respond

in very exceptional circumstances, your DTR ma y not respond as expected when switching it on. if this does happen, it is most likely to have been caused by corruption of programmes stored on your disk. This can occasionally cause the DTR to remain in standby mode or fail to respond to the remote control while not displaying any picture. however, normal DTR operation can usually be restored, by performing a reset as noted below.

wARNiNg

Resetting your DTR can cause all saved programmes to be lost.

These steps should only be taken after carefully checking all DTR connections and ensuring you have working batteries in your DTR remote control.

Check the display on the front panel of your DTR.

Scenario 1 – No display

• Check the mains lead is properly inserted to the back panel.

• Check the wall socket works by plugging in another appliance.

• Check the fuse in the plug. Only replace with a 5A fuse complying with BS1362.

Ask an electrician for help if you are not sure what to check.

Scenario 2 – Solid red LeD and no display

This means the DTR has encountered an error but it can usually be restored. The following sequence will restore the settings of your DTR to the factory default and will retain your saved programmes.

• Unplug the mains power or switch off your DTR at the wall socket.

• Wait 5 seconds.

• Restore the power while pressing and holding the front panel button for 5 seconds. pLS wAiT and then ReVeRT will be displayed.

• Wait 45 seconds for the DTR to complete the reset procedure.

• Select the DTR input on your TV and check for picture.

Scenario 3 – Solid red LeD and pLS wAiT continuously displayed

This means the DTR has encountered an error and cannot be easily restored. The following sequence will restore the settings for your DTR to the factory default and also delete all saved programmes from the internal storage.

• Unplug the mains power or switch off your DTR at the wall socket.

• Wait 5 seconds.

• Restore the power and wait until the message ‘pLS wAiT’ disappears from the display then press the front panel button. wait until ‘foRMAT’ message is displayed and then release the button.

• Wait 45 seconds for the DTR to complete the reset procedure.

• Select the DTR input on your TV and check for picture.

Safety information

power cord (mains lead)

Do not place the product where a piece of furniture or other heavy object could trap the power cord (mains lead). handle the power cord by the plug. Do not pull out the plug by tugging the cord and never touch the power cord when your hands are wet as this could cause a short circuit or electric shock. Never make a knot in the cord or tie it with other cords.

The power cords should be routed in such a way that they are not likely to be stepped on.

A damaged power cord can cause fire or give you an electrical shock. Check the power cord periodically to see if it is damaged. if it is damaged, please ask an approved service agent to replace it.

for your own safety read following instructions carefully before attempting to connect this device to the mains. This unit is designed to operate on a 220V-240V

AC – 50hz supply only. Connecting it to other power sources may damage it. ensure that the supply corresponds to the information on the rating label on the bottom of the unit. This component system may be fitted with a non-rewireable plug. if it is necessary to change the fuse in a non-rewireable plug, the fuse cover must be refitted. if th e fuse cover becomes lost or damaged, the plug most not be used until a replacement, available fr om the manufacturer, is obtained. it is important that the colour of the replacement fuse cover corresponds with the colour marking on the base of the plug. if the plug needs to be changed because it is not suitable for your socket, or it becomes damaged, it should be unplugged then cut off and the fuse removed immediately. please dispose of the plug safely and out of reach from children. Under no circumstance should the cut-off plug be inserted into a mains socket outlet due to high risk of electric shock. Then fit an appropriate plug carefully following the wiring instructions shown below.

important

The wires in the mains plug should be connected as shown in the diagram. The colours of the wires in the mains lead of the unit may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug. Connect them as follows:

• The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter ‘N’ or coloured black.

• The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter ‘L’ or coloured red.

• There should be no connection to the earth terminal of your plug. if you use a 13 Amp (BS1363) plug, you will need a 5 Amp fuse.

• The mains plug is the disconnect device and therefore must remain readily operable.

how to replace the fuse

open the fuse compartment with a blade screwdriver and replace the fuse. when replacing the fuse in the plug, use an ASTA or BSi approved 3 Amp fuse and be sure to re-fit the fuse cover. if the plug supplied with this equipment has a detachable fuse cover, be sure attach the fuse cover after you change the fuse. Never use the plug without the fuse cover. if you should lose the fuse cover, please contact an electrical goods retailer. if in doubt, consult a competent electrician how to replace the fuse.

Switchover

Starting in 2008 and ending in 2012, television services in the UK will go completely digital, TV region by TV region.

if you do not reset your channels, you risk losing some or all of your TV services during and following switchover.

please refer to this instruction manual for help with resetting channels.

please note that in order to receive the maximum number of available TV services on your equipment you must perform a first-time installation and do not just add channels.
