Turning the set-top on and off
After you have connected the set-top to the AC wall outlet (and switched this outlet ON, if it has a
switch), the light next to the
power
button on the set-top’s front panel should be red.
Wait until you can see the time on the front-panel display, then press the button labeled
power
on
the front panel of the set-top to turn it on. The light next to the
power
button goes from red to
blue, to show that the set-top is on.
If the light next to the
power
button is neither red nor blue, 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. Then turn off the set-top by pressing the
power
button on its front panel or on the remote control, so that the light by the
power
button goes red.
Then wait 60 seconds before disconnecting the set-top at the wall AC outlet.
NOTES
It is important that, unless there is a lightning storm or the set-top’s users are away from their home for a
long time, they do not unplug the set-top at the wall AC outlet (or do not 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.
Depending on the set-top’s settings, if you switch the set-top off, any TV that is attached to the set-top’s
POWER OUTLET may also turn off. For more details, see page 55.
