Common Interface
Follow the instructions given by your Pay TV provider.
The Common Interface for insertion of two so-called Conditional
Access modules is located underneath the front flap.
The Smartcard sold by the Pay TV provider, specific to a particular
encryption technology, is inserted into the CA module. The card is not
included in the receiver package.
The cards and modules are issued by the respective Pay TV
providers, and contain the subscriber data and details of the
programmes for which the subscriber has paid. These programmes
are always encrypted.
Contact the Pay TV provider if you are interested in subscribing to a
particular Pay TV channel.
You alone are responsible for use of the cards.
Keep the card and the associated PIN code in a safe placing when not
in use.

A CA module must be inserted for the message to appear, however.
