2 Please read this first
Before connecting and using the device, first check that everything has been
supplied and familiarise yourself with the safety advice.
The scope of delivery for the TECHNISTAR S5 includes:
1 Digital receiver,
1 Quick start manual,
1 Remote control, baeries (2 pcs. 1.5V microcells)
1 Plug-in power supply unit.

2.1 Intended use
The digital satellite receiver is used to receive digital satellite channels in the private
sector. It is intended exclusively for this purpose. Observe all the information in this
quick start manual, in particular the safety instructions. Any other use is considered
improper and can lead to property damage or personal injury. No liability is accepted
for damage resulting from improper use.
2.2 Safety instructions
For your own protection you should read the safety notes carefully before using the
device. The manufacturer accepts no liability for damage caused by inappropriate
handling, or by non-compliance with the safety precautions.
Function-related discharge current may occur with electrical equipment.
This is acceptable and poses no risk, even if it is experienced as a slight tingling.
To prevent such discharge currents, mains operated devices (receivers, TVs etc.)
must always be installed or connected with the power switched o, i.e.
alldevices must be disconnected from the mains.
- The device must only be operated in an appropriate climate.
- To ensure adequate ventilation, place the device on a flat, horizontal surface
and do not place any objects on top of it. There are ventilation slots here to
allow heat to be dissipated from the interior of the unit.
- Do not place any burning objects, such as lit candles, on top of the receiver.

- Do not expose the device to water droplets or water spray, and do not place
any objects filled with liquid, such as vases, on top of it. If water gets into
the unit, immediately disconnect the mains plug and inform the service
department.
- Do not operate sources of heat near the device that can additionally heat it
up.
- Do not obstruct the ventilation slots with any objects.
- Never open the device! You risk receiving an electric shock. Any necessary
repairs to the receiver should only be carried out by qualified service
personnel.
In the following circumstances, you should disconnect the device from the mains
power and consult an expert:
> the power cable or mains plug is damaged
> the device has been exposed to moisture or liquid has got into it
> there are significant malfunctions
> there is severe external damage.

2.3 Operating breaks
During a storm or lengthy periods of non-use (e.g. holiday), the device should be
disconnected from the mains and the antenna cable removed.
Before you disconnect the receiver from the mains, you should first switch it to
standby mode and wait until the red LED light is displayed.
2.4 Important notes on operation
Operation of the digital receiver is simplified through the use of a so-called "On
Screen Display" (OSD).
This also means that the number of buons on the remote control unit is reduced.
All functions are displayed on screen, and can be controlled by means of a few
control buons.
Functions that are logically related are combined into a "MENU". The selected function
will be highlighted. The red, yellow, blue and green function buons are indicated
by coloured bars at the boom of the screen. These coloured bars represent
dierent functions in the various menus, which can be implemented by pressing
the appropriately coloured buons (multi-function buons) on the remote control.
The function buons are only active when a brief description is displayed in the
appropriate field.
The buon identifications and terms that appear in the OSD menu are shown
inboldtype in this operating manual.
Help: where available, press the blue function buon in the menus to display the
help text; press again to close the help window.
2.5 Important information on data security
Before handing your receiver to your supplier for maintenance purposes, we
recommend that you remove all USB storage media.
The recovery of data is not part of the maintenance and repair work. TechniSat
assumes no warranty for the loss or damage of data during the repair.
2.6 Remote control/Changing the baery
> Open the cover on the baery compartment at the rear of the remote control
by pressing gently on the point indicated and pressing in the direction of the
arrow.
> Insert the supplied baeries, ensuring that the poles are the right way round
(indicator visible in baery compartment).
> Close the baery compartment again.
