GENERAL OPERATION OF THE DMP
Throughout this manual you will notice that the everyday opera-
tion of your DMP is based on a series of user friendly on-screen
displays and menus. These menus will help you get the most
from your DMP, guiding you through installation, channel selec-
tion, viewing and many other functions.
All functions can be carried out using the buttons on the remote
control, and some of the functions can also be carried out using
the buttons on the front panel.
If at any time when using the menus (except Installation and
Reinstall) you want to return to the normal TV/Radio mode, press
the EXIT button.
Please be aware that new software may change the functional-
ity of the DMP.
Should you experience any difficulties with the operation of your
DMP, please consult the relevant section of this manual, includ-
ing the Problem Solving, or alternatively call your dealer or a cus-
tomer service adviser.
Please note: The first thing to do before sending the DMP to
service is to:
1: Perform ”Diagnostic” procedure in System Information menu.
2: Try downloading new software into the DMP.
With this procedure, the new software may solve the problem
in the quickest and most efficient way. See the relevant sec-
tion ”Receiver Upgrade” further on in this manual.
•Allow clear space around the DMP for
sufficient ventilation.
•Do not cover the DMP or place it on a
unit that emits heat.
• Use a soft cloth and a mild solution of
washing-up liquid to clean the casing.
• Never allow liquids, spray or other materi-
als to come into contact with the inside of
the DMP.
• Do not connect or modify cables when the

How to insert a Smartcard (Nagravision)
•Insert your Smartcard fully into the slot on the front panel of
the DMP. The gold chip should face downwards and in-
wards.

GB 11
This procedure is necessary only if your DMP is connected
to the TV with an RF lead.
To tune your TV to the RF signal you might also need your TV
manual in addition to this manual. The steps below explain what
to do if you have been unable to use Audio/Video leads in your
connection.
•Plug in your DMP.
Tuning your TV to the DMP
•Select a channel number on the TV that is not currently used
for other TV channels.
•Follow the instructions in your TV manual to tune the TV chan-
nel selector to VHF channel 3 (this is the DMP’s factory pre-
set VHF channel). If you are already using this channel, select
channel 4.
•If you need to change VHF channel you do as follows:
First you change on the DMP. Use the or buttons on the
front panel of the DMP, or on the remote. You will see the VHF
channel number displayed on the front panel of the DMP. Then
you tune the TV channel selector to the same VHF channel.
•When you have correctly changed the VHF channel number
you will see the ” Welcome ”menu on the TV screen.
If there is interference from other channels you will have to
change the chosen VHF channel.
•Follow the instructions in your TV manual to store this VHF chan-
nel as the channel used by your DMP. You will have to select it
when you want to watch digital TV/Radio channels.
•Once the welcome message is visible, press the OK button
on the DMPs remote control to start the installation procedure.
If for some reason you have to change the RF channel later,
you can do this by using TV settings menu further on in this
manual.
If you have a VCR connected it must be tuned to a different
VHF channel (between 3 to 4) than the DMP.
You may now proceed to “First Time Installation.”
