Your digital receiver provides a multitude of possible connections to other appliances. Here we list the
most important options available.

The digital receiver is connected directly to a terrestrial antenna on the ANTENNA IN connector (see page
4, connections on the rear panel item 3). , by means of a coaxial cable. This connection must be done
while the receiver is switched off.

Digital receivers and TV sets are usually connected by means of a Scart cable. Simply connect the two
ends of the cable with the main socket on the TV set and with the TV socket on the receiver, respectively.
The Scart connection ensures that audio and video signals are transmitted to the TV set in optimum quality.

When you have completed connecting the digital receiver to the terrestrial antenna and the TV set, as well
as to the video recorder where applicable, you can now proceed to switch it on for the first time. In order
to do this, press the On/Off (Standby) key on the remote control. The receiver will now be switched on.
