7.15.1 Downloading SFI data

The programme information will be updated by your receiver at the update time set in accordance with Point 8.2 (SFI channel). The pre- requisite for this is that your receiver must be in stand-by mode at this time.

The download procedure will be indicated by the message Load SFI o n the display. If your receiver is switched on and in operation at this time, the function will not be executed.

You may also start the dowload procedure manually, simply by pres- sing the SFI key immediately after switching off the receiver (i.e. while the display shows “Stand-by”). While the download procedure is in progress, the message Load SFI will appear in the display, follo- wed by a record of the volume of SFI data already downloaded (e.g. 38%).

The duration of the downloading procedure will depend on the num- ber of programmes included. Programmes can be shown a maximum of seven days in advance. Based on the volume of data involved, the more programmes are included, the shorter is the period for which preview information can be included in the electronic programme guide.

You can decide for yourself which programmes are to be included in the electronic programme guide. These can then be added to the list as described in Point 8.1.5.

7.15.2 Interrupting the download procedure

The download procedure may be interrupted by switching on the digi- tal receiver (On/Standby key). The SFI data downloaded at the pre- vious download will then still be available.
