Note:

For the new software version to be downloaded automatically, the digital receiver must be in standby mode. The downloading procedure is indicated by “TErL”, followed by “TEr0” to “TEr9” in the display. Ensure that this procedure is not interrupted by switching the receiver on or off while the download is in progress.

Independent of whether you have switched the automatic software update function on or off, the receiver will check automatically each time it is switched on whether a new ver- sion of the operating software for your digital receiver is avai- lable. If a new version of the operating software is available, this will be indicated by a message displayed on screen.

To start the software update, follow the instructions displayed on your screen.
