Troubleshooting

Help and advice

If you have difficulties using your set-top box and none of the suggestions below work,

try switching your set-top box off at the mains, and then back on again. If this does not

work, contact the shop you bought your set-top box from or a qualified repair technician.

Never try to repair your set-top box yourself.

Please make sure you know the model number of your set-top box before contacting us.

The model number is printed on the label on the underneath of the set-top box main unit.

mode. You may get an encrypted channel message. You

have to pay to watch this channel. The signal is encoded

remote control.

The set-top box is switched off or you are not pointing the

remote control at the set-top box properly. There might be

something in front of the front panel on the set-top box. You

may have put the batteries in the remote control the wrong

way round or you may need new batteries.

up of square blocks or

The aerial may not be the right type for the set-top box. It may

be damaged or pointing in the wrong direction.

You can only find

some of the channels
