air vents on the top and sides and do not place the terminal in enclosed furniture.

FUNCTIONS
TheTV program guide no longer displays data
Change the terminal Display language and return to the initial language when the problem is solved.To change the
Display language,press SETTINGS twice and select Language: Screen on the General Settings screen options menu.
Does the terminal support the Second Audio Program (SAP) function?
Yes.The terminal can convert SAP even though very few programs are designed to support this function.
Does the terminal show subtitles of programs encoded for the hearing impaired?
Standard PVR terminals allow passage of sub-title information so that it can be received by a suitable decoder
(e.g.your television). However, HD PVR terminals first decode sub-title data and then send it to the television.
