INSTALLING YOUR T1

• A coaxial TV aerial cable
Before you plug in, please read the Safety section of the Important
Information booklet.

Connect Up
• Connect the coaxial TV aerial cable from your aerial wall socket to your T1.
• Next, connect the T1 to your TV using the HDMI cable provided.
• To view Freeview’s free and premium streaming channels or receive software
updates over the internet, connect the T1 to your router using an Ethernet cable.
• Finally, plug the AC power adapter into a wall socket that is turned o, then
connect the other end to the T1.
If you want to use your TV’s tuner, connect the Loop Out connector to the Aerial input of
your TV. See the back cover for details of using Loop Out in Standby.
If your TV doesn’t have an HDMI input, the T1 has an analogue AV output that you should
be able to connect to your TV using the Manhattan T1 AV Kit (not included). See the
included leaflet or contact us for more details.
Switch On
• Open the battery compartment cover on the back of the remote by pushing the
catch. Insert the batteries, matching the + and – symbols to what is marked on the
inside of the compartment. Replace the cover.
• Turn on the wall socket you connected the Manhattan T1 to and it will switch on.
• Turn on your TV set and choose the HDMI input you connected your Manhattan
T1 to. Most TV remotes use a button labelled ‘AV’, ‘SOURCE’, ‘INPUT’ or , with
each press cycling through your inputs.
Follow the on-screen instructions to set up your T1. It takes about 5 minutes, which is
the perfect amount of time to read the rest of this Guide!

TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE WHAT TO DO
There’s no picture
or sound and even
the T1’s menus

T1 and your TV.
The input the Manhattan T1 is
connected to may not be selected
on your TV.

for guidance).
Your TV may not correctly
communicate the resolutions it is
capable of and an incompatible

signal’ is displayed
on screen
Inadequate signal from your aerial. You can check your signal in the System Info section of
Help. If it’s weak or not present, get a professional to
check your installation: your aerial may provide a better
signal if it is realigned or moved somewhere else. We
don’t recommend using an indoor aerial.
As a last resort, try using a signal amplifier or booster to
improve reception.
Some antennas that are installed
with a signal amplifier need a
power supply from the receiver
because they do not have their
own.
If you have connected a signal amplifier, you can have
the T1 supply it with a +5V DC supply by selecting the
option in the System section of Settings.
Channels not

SOFTWARE UPDATES
From time to time we may release software updates to add features or address
bugs. When registering your T1 you can choose to be notified by email.
The T1 will automatically check for an update each night and install one if it’s
available. This can be disabled by turning ‘Automatic Updates’ to o in the System
section of Settings. You can also manually check for an update by selecting ‘Check
for Update Now’.
Please note that updates will be released over the internet so we recommend
keeping your T1 connected to your internet router by Ethernet cable. If you can’t
connect your T1 to your router with an Ethernet cable, the update can be installed
using a USB stick instead. Full information about the update and how to install it via
USB will be available on our website.
