2.5.1 Inserting batteries in the remote control

To insert the batteries, open the battery compartment by remov- ing the lid, and then insert the batteries observing the polarity, which is marked on the base of the battery compartment.

If the digital receiver no longer reacts properly to remote con- trol commands, the batteries may be flat. Be sure to remove used batteries. The manufacturer accepts no liability for the damage resulting from leaking batteries.

NOTE

Batteries, including those which contain no heavy metals, may not be disposed of with household waste. Please dispose of used batteries in an environmentally sound manner. Find out about the legal regulations which apply in your area.

2.5.2 Powering on and checking picture

Now, press the button in top left corner on the remote con- trol. If you do not see a picture, try pressing the V.Format button on the remote control. If after several tries you still get no pic- ture, check that the television is set to the correct input. If the picture is good, you can skip to § 4.1 to search for the available television and radio services. Otherwise, you may need to temporarily connect the composite video connector (VIDEO) to your television set so that you can see the on-screen menus in order to configure the video settings.
