Quick Start Guide
DTV700B
It is suggested that you use a roof top aerial when scanning for TV channels
for the first time. If any signal is detected, the channel information will be
saved onto the TV, you may then switch back to the portable antenna
supplied and change your location to find the best place to receive the
signal.
Connect the device to the mains power or use the built-in battery, press and
hold POWER on the device for 3 seconds to turn it on.
When turning on the device for the first time, “Installation” will show,
follow the instructions to select Country and OSD Language, then press
<OK>, the auto search will then start. Once the search has finished, press
< or < to select channels. Press <OK> to open the Sub Menu and
select TV/Radio to switch between Freeview TV and Radio channels.
If you have done the first time installation before, and would like to search
for Digital Freeview channels again, or if you have moved to a different
region and need to scan channels again, press MENU, select “Installation”,
choose the Scan Mode, press <OK> to start the search. Once the search has
finished, press < or < to select channels. Press <OK> to open the
Sub Menu and select TV/Radio to switch between Freeview TV and Radio
channels.
To play video, music, photos or PVR on a SD/MMC card or memory stick,

Please note the included portable antenna may only be used in areas where
signal is very strong. As mentioned on the Freeview website, only some
households might be able to use a set top aerial at present. This only applies
if you live in an area with coverage close to a transmitter, but reception
would still be unreliable and they strongly recommend that you use a roof
top aerial for good reception.
The reception will improve along with the progress of the Digital
Switchover Program. Reception may also be affected by various factors
such as how close you are to transmitters, tall buildings, thick walls,
ceilings and weather etc.
For any further queries, please telephone August International Ltd helpline
