OPERATING THE SET-TOP
Turning the set-top on and off
After you have connected the set-top to the wall AC outlet (and switched this outlet ON, if it has a
switch), the light around the
POWER
button on the set-top’s front panel should be red.
Wait for a few seconds, then press the button labeled
POWER
on the front panel of the set-top to
turn it on. The light around the
POWER
button goes green, to show that the set-top is on.
If the light around the
POWER
button is neither red nor green, there is a problem.
To turn the set-top on or off at any time, press the
POWER
button on its front panel or the
POWER
button on the remote control (first making sure the remote control is set to control the
set-top).
Never turn off the set-top by simply disconnecting it from the power supply. If you need to
disconnect the set-top, first stop any recording to an external hard disk (if there is one connected).
Then turn off the set-top by pressing the
POWER
button on its front panel or on the remote
control, so that the light around the
POWER
button goes red. Then wait 60 seconds before
disconnecting the set-top at the wall AC outlet.
Power Saving: To save power and money, and to reduce greenhouse gas emissions,
please turn off the set-top, using the POWER button, when it is not in use.
NOTES
IMPORTANT: Unless there is a lightning storm or the set-top’s users are away from their home for a long
time, they should not unplug the set-top at the wall AC outlet (nor switch it off there, if the outlet has a
switch). The set-top cannot be updated with new features, through the cable, if it is disconnected from the
AC power supply.
To turn on the set-top, press
the
POWER
button.
The light around the
button changes from
red to green.
