Nokia MEDIAMASTER 9850 T User manual

Nokia Mediamaster
Free-to-View
Owner’s Manual
Digital terrestrial Free-to-View is a non-subscription service through an
existing TV and aerial.
Total Channel availability is subject to coverage.
*You may be reguired to upgrade your television aerial to enable full
service reception.

Important Information
Wiring the plug (UK and Eire only)
The mains lead on this product is already fitted with a non-rewireable (moulded)
plug incorporating a fuse, the value of which is indicated on the pin face of the
plug. Should the fuse need to be replaced, an ASTA or BSI approved BS 1362
fuse must be used of the same rating.
If the fuse cover is detachable always refit the cover after replacing the fuse.
NEVER use the plug with the fuse cover omitted.
If the fitted plug is not suitable for your socket outlets it should be cut off, after
having first removed the fuse, and an appropriate plug fitted in its place. If this
new plug contains a fuse its value should be the same as that removed from the
non-rewireable plug.
The severed plug must be destroyed immediately to avoid possible shock hazard.
If you need to replace the mains plug then follow the instruction given below:
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:
BLUE - Neutral (N); BROWN - Live (L).
As these colours may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the
terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
The wire coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal marked with the
letter N or coloured BLUE or BLACK.
The wire coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal marked with the
letter L or coloured BROWN or RED.
On no account should either of these wires be connected to the terminal marked
E or coloured GREEN or GREEN and YELLOW.
Before replacing the plug cover, make certain that the cord grip is clamped over
the sheath of the lead; not simply over the two wires.
If in doubt, consult a qualified electrician.

Welcome to digital terrestrial television
The simplest way to get digital television is here. No dish. No cable.
Simplyan aerial. It is, without doubt,the most exciting development
in television history since the first-ever broadcast in 1936.

analogue television. Digital terrestrial television changes that.
ITV Digital is the next step in television. Simply plug in your
ITV Digital box for a feast of mouth watering television.
ITV Digital lets you pick and choose the Primary channels you want
to watch.
Subscription channels from ITV Digital, together with free-to-view
channels from the BBC* and ITV, cover everything from sports and
movies to news and current affairs, all with improved picture and
sound...andwidescreentoo. No need for dishes. No need for cables.
All you need is ITV Digital.
* BBC services are provided free as part of the licence fee.
