Care
and safety
Your V HD Box fully complies with international
safety standards, which is always good to know.
Here are a few simple guidelines
to looking after your V HD Box and
avoiding accidents.
Care
Put your V HD Box somewhere well
ventilated – not anywhere too damp,
cold or hot.
Make sure there are no vases or drinks left
where they can spill onto the V HD Box.
Make sure nothing is covering the top
of the V HD Box.
Safety
Only connect your V HD Box to the mains
using the lead and power supply provided.
Connect all the leads between your V HD
Box and your TV, DVD player or similar
equipment before switching on your
V HD Box.
Switch the power off and unplug your V HD
Box before disconnecting any equipment
from it.
Never remove the top of your V HD Box.
Make sure all electrical connections are
secure. If you’re worried about any of the
leads, connections or plugs, get in touch
with a qualified electrician.

Energy
saving tips
The V HD Box is built to be as energy efficient as
possible. So we can all do our bit for the planet.
Standby Mode
Just the thing when you’re only leaving the
TV for a minute. When you get back, push
the standby button on your box or remote
to start watching straight away.
Power Off mode
In Power Off mode your box uses less
than one watt of energy. Perfect if you’re
going away for a while. To turn your box
back on, just push the Standby button,
but be patient, it’ll take your box about 30
seconds to wake up.
Choosing a Power Saving mode
When your TV is on, press the Standby
button to display an on-screen menu
asking you to select a power saving
mode. If you don’t respond, your V
HD Box will go into Standby mode
automatically after 15 seconds.
Automatic Power Saving
Your V HD Box is always on, unless you
put it on Standby or turn it off. But you
can switch on its Power Saving mode, so
it automatically switches to Standby if you
don’t use it for three hours. Which helps
the environment and saves you money.
But don’t worry, a message will be
displayed first to warn you beforehand,
so if you want to keep watching just
press
