5 Operating Instructions: Knowing your basic controls
To become acquainted with the operations and functions of your receiver, please
learn how to use the control buttons on the Remote Control and the Front Panel.
The following segment is an introduction to features that you will most commonly use.
5.1 Switching On Your Digital Receiver
To switch on the digital receiver please, first plug the power lead into a 240V AC
socket. The digital receiver remains in constant “STANDBY” when plugged into a
240V supply. However it does require time to start up and so the picture and sound is
not immediately available when the on button is pushed.
Switch on your receiver by pressing either the button on the remote control or the
button on the front panel. While the digital receiver is in normal viewing mode,
the green LED lights up. When not using the digital receiver, put your equipment in
the “STANDBY” mode by pressing either one of the / buttons again. When the
red “STANDBY” LED lights up, it indicates the digital receiver is in “STANDBY” mode.

briefly whenever a new channel is selected
or when there is a problem with signal

exit the synopsis, continue pressing the
