❖ Switching on for the first time
When you connect your set-top box to the mains, your set-top box’s 
front panel lights go through a start-up sequence. After about 20 
seconds, your set-top box is switched on and out of standby, and the 
standby light is green.
◆ Make sure your TV is switched on.
If the Countries screen below displays, your TV is ready for digital 
satellite channels. 
You can now continue the installation by turning to the section ‘Making 
the installation settings’ on page 18, but note that if you have a VCR 
connected to your set-top box via an RF lead (as in connection 
method 1), to be able to record satellite programmes, you may need 
to perform RF Tuning for your VCR - see page 17.
If the Countries screen does not display...
If you have connected your set-top box to your TV (and VCR) via 
SCART leads, try selecting your TV’s ‘AV input’.
If you have connected your set-top box to your TV (and VCR) via RF 
leads only, you need to tune a ‘channel for satellite TV’ (see ‘RF Tuning’ 
on page 17).
