E - Pre-programmed channels and satellites
Your receiver is delivered pre-programmed on the main satellites available in Europe. Some
satellites require a one-meter satellite dish, you will not be able to receive them with a lower
size satellite dish, even if this satellite appears in your pre-programmed channels list. You
will use these channels to point your satellite dish towards the satellite you want. The Table 1
gives you the satellite dish necessary size, in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland,
for each satellite, as well as references channel that will be useful for you to align with a
satellite.
Important notes:
• Table 1 does not mention the satellites which do not broadcast (or with a very low signal) on
Digital Free to Air. The reference channels were validated at the time of the drafting of this
user manual, we cannot guaranty they will still be there. In the event of problem at the time
of searching for a satellite, get specialised magazine (like What satellite and Digital TV) to
check that the reference channel is still a Free to Air channel.
For the alignment, you must imperatively know which satellite you wish to receive. If you
have any doubt, check the pre-programmed channels at the end of this user manual.
F - Language selection
When you first switch on your receiver, you will need to select the language required with
the
34
keys. Confirm your choice by pressing EXIT. If this option is not available, we strongly
advise you to reset the receiver (see page 30). This selection will also be required after a
factory reset.
