Introduction  
Thank you for purchasing this product which has been  
designed and manufactured to give you many years of  
trouble-free service.  
Ventilation  
- The slots and openings on the set top box are for venti-  
lation. Do not cover or block them as it may cause  
overheating.  
About This User Manual  
- NEVER let children push anything into the holes or slots  
on the case.  
This user guide contains all the information you need to  
know about how to setup and watch available 'Freeview'  
channels using your set top box.  
Servicing  
What is Freeview?  
- There are no user serviceable parts in this set top box.  
- When servicing, refer to qualified service personnel.  
It is the new, free digital service currently providing up to  
30 free digital TV channels, over 20 digital radio stations  
plus a whole new world of interactive services. It's broad-  
cast from transmitters and received via a rooftop aerial.  
- Consult your dealer if you are ever in doubt about the  
installation, operation or safety of this set top box.  
It works like traditional TV, but because the signals are  
digital you need a set top box to convert them. This  
means more channels can be transmitted with extra fea-  
tures such as interactivity and widescreen pictures.
