1.Unplug all equipment from the mains before making connections.

Note: Before starting to connect check your current wiring because you can keep the coaxial connection in between your TV and your video provided they are connected as shown above. This connection ensures you can still record your current channels.

2.Connect a SCART lead between the “TV” socket of your digital receiver, and the television. Using the first SCART of your TV (usually described as EXT AV 1) will provide the best picture quality.
