Receiving digital stations
To use your new DTR 1560-2 MICRO digital receiver you need a
digital outdoor or indoor antenna.
Unlike analogue broadcasting, not every station has its own trans-
mission frequency. Instead, several stations are grouped into what
are known as bouquets on a regional or national level.
You can find the current transmission information on teletext from
various broadcasters, or look in a TV guide or on the Internet.
Special features of your digital receiver
The DTR 1560-2 MICRO digital receiver can receive and process
all unencrypted digital stations. This digital receiver has a built-in
digital receiver unit. The receiver unit converts the signals from
digital stations to provide outstanding audio and picture quality.
The TV guide tells you of any schedule changes at short notice, and
provides an overview of all the stations’ schedules for the next few
hours.
If the broadcaster provides it, you can call up detailed information
on each programme at the touch of a button.
This digital receiver has a very comprehensive, user-friendly menu
system.
The menu is displayed on the television screen, and the functions of
the remote control buttons are explained.
This receiver is prepared with the Digi 200 chassis for upgrading
GRUNDIG televisions.
The user guide for the receiver can be integrated into the television
user guide by following a brief installation procedure. The receiver
can be controlled with the television remote control once it is
installed. The remote control, the infra-red mouse and the power
supply for the receiver will then no longer be needed.

information.
This digital receiver is designed to receive, record and play back

If the digital receiver is subject to a sudden change in temperature,
for example when brought in from the cold to a warm room, let it
stand for at least two hours before you connect it to the mains
supply.
Do not expose the digital receiver to any moisture.
The digital receiver is designed for use in dry rooms. If you do use it
outdoors, please ensure that it is protected from moisture, such as

Thunderstorms are a danger to all electrical devices. Even if the
digital receiver is switched off, it can be damaged by a
lightning strike to the mains or the antenna.
Always disconnect the mains and antenna plugs during a storm.
Never open the digital receiver casing under any circumstances.
Warranty claims are excluded for damage resulting from improper
