Remarks:If MENU lock is "On", input password first. Default password is "0000”
Important Remarks:
(1) Analog Reception and DVB-T Reception
When you wish to watch TV using your TV tuner (analog tuner) and that your DVB-
T unit has been turned off or unplugged, the image quality can be deteriorated
according to the TV you are using. This is normal, your DVB-T unit must be set in
standby mode to allow a good quality signal.
(3)Problems receiving DVB-T channels
- First check that you have well connected your home antenna with the DVB-T
unit.
- Start a new automatic channel search as follows:
1. Press the MENU key from the remote control
2. Then select installation
3. Then select Auto search in order to run the automatic channels search.
(5) Different volume levels between channels in AC3 format and those in stereo
format.
Certain DVB-T programs may be broadcasted in AC3 format, which provides a superior
audio quality via the coaxial output from the receiver. If you chose the AC3 format and
switch to a channel in stereo format afterwards, the audio volume may increase depending
on the DVB-T program format and your home theatre equipment. This is normal; in this
case, consider reducing the volume prior to changing channels to avoid listening gene.
(2)Connection with another unit (DVD Recorder, CANAL PLUS Decoder)
Connect the 2 units by using a Scart cable, by linking the “ Recorder” DVB-T input with
your other unit.
(4) Receiving CANAL PLUS
With this unit you can receive CANAL PLUS when the content is unscrambled
(free of charge). When you scan and launch the channel search during the first
installation, and that CANAL PLUS is scrambled at that time, it is possible that the
unit classifies this channel as a scrambled channel, and therefore as an
unavailable channel. In order to resolve this problem: launch a new channel
search, as described in the section above, at a time when CANAL PLUS
broadcast unscrambled programs. CANAL PLUS will then be listed correctly as a
viewable DVB-T channel.

(6) If the reception problem still occurs.
Your unit has been tested for optimal performance over all the country. In most
cases, the DVB-T reception problems are due to a weakness in your home's
antenna installation. If your installation is old, or has never been tested for DVB-T,
the signal can be too weak or flawed for the unit to work properly. It is therefore
highly recommended that you ask for a qualified technician to test the compliance
of your home antenna. This unit has been designed and is guaranteed to work
with a signal of at least 60dB.
