TV Favourites set up

With TV Favourites you’ll get up to 

600

carefully selected programmes 

downloaded to your Top Up TV+ DTR every month. That’s up to 

150

extra 

programmes available at any one time on top of your normal Freeview channels.

You can also upgrade to PictureBox which gives you an additional 

30

movies 

a month or take ESPN, a must-have for sports fans.

Press OK

Using your DTR remote control, now switch to channel 

16

and check you are 

getting a picture. If you are not getting a picture on channel 

16

, please refer to

the Troubleshooting section for help.

To activate the extra channels available from Top Up TV, please refer to your

welcome pack. 

It may take up to 24 hours for your first TV Favourites and PictureBox programmes

to appear in your DTR library, but you will be able to watch your Freeview

channels right away. 

Step 

4 –

Channel Scan

You will see this screen showing that your

DTR is now searching for all available

channels.

In the event that your DTR does not find

any channels, or has missed some, see the

section on what to do if your Installation

fails, on page 

10

.

When your DTR has successfully found all channels, your DTR will search for and

install the extended 

14

day Programme Guide software.  Please note that when

you start to use the extended guide after installation, that this may take up to 

24

hours to fully populate.

Step 

5 –

Parental Control

You will now be prompted to set up the

Parental Control PIN for your DTR.  For Top

Up TV subscribers, this controls who will

have access to the extra programmes, which

are downloaded automatically to your DTR

every night. The Parental Control PIN will 

not control or restrict access to Freeview 

programmes (your default PIN is 

0000

.)

If children have access to your DTR, it is advisable to select the maximum

appropriate viewing certification now, in order to restrict access. E.g. by selecting

12

, you will restrict access to programmes rated 

15

or higher.

Once you have completed this step, press         on your remote.

For more parental control options please refer to page
