We take this opportunity to thank you for buying this product.

We recommend you read the instruction manual before switching on the machine and follow the instructions

that are given. Keep the manual for future reference.

SECURITY AND THE ENVIRONMENT

ELECTRICAL SECURITY

Check that the current in the mains connection where the machine is to be installed corresponds to the

power supply of the machine.

To avoid damaging the equipment, electrical shocks, ﬁre or physical injury when you connect or disconnect

the equipment from the power supply, pull the plug ﬁrmly out of the mains socket holding the plug, never the

cable.

Always do this with dry hands.

Keep the power supply cable far from sources of heat. Do not put heavy objects on top of it or change it.

Clean dust and dirt off the power supply cable regularly.

Do not open the machine; you could get an electric shock.

CAUTION

While installing the machine, make sure it is switched off and unplugged.

Do not open the machine. Touching the internal parts is dangerous and you could receive an electric shock.

The machine must not be splashed or dripped on. Never place recipients with liquid inside on the machine.

Do not place anything inside the machine.

LOCATION

Place the equipment on a horizontal surface with enough space around it to allow ventilation.

Avoid direct sunlight, heat sources and excessive dust.

Do not place the machine near magnetic ﬁelds or static electricity.

Do not use surfaces which vibrate or receive impact.

Do not pile machines on top of one another.

VENTILATION

Never block or cover the ventilation slits on the machine.

Do not expose it to direct sunlight or place it near sources of heat.

PERIODS OF INACTIVITY

When the machine is not going to be used for a long period of time, disconnect it from the mains.

If you are using an adapter, take into account that it will continue using electricity even if the machine is

switched off. If it is not going to be used for a long period of time, disconnect it from the mains.

THE ENVIRONMENT

To save energy, switch the machine off when you are not going to use it for a long time. The machine could

contain substances that are harmful to the environment or human health. To minimize the effect of these

substances the machine must be correctly managed and recycled when you decide to dispose of it.

When you dispose of it remember: it cannot be thrown into a conventional rubbish bin.

If it contains or uses batteries, these must be disposed of separately.

The machine (without batteries) must be disposed of correctly. Put it in a container specially intended for the

collection of electronic and electrical appliances, at the dump or hand it over to the dealer when you purchase

similar equipment, so that the dealer can dispose of it correctly (at no added cost).

DESCRIPTION

The RDT-759HD is a DVB-T2 HD receiver with HDMI output and PVR function with time shift. It records TDT

programs with PVR function and plays video, audio and image ﬁles.

It is compatible with high deﬁnition (HD) and standard deﬁnition (SD).

Amongst other characteristics, it has high reception sensitivity, allows language selection in multiaudio

channels, has an electronic program guide (EPG), favorites lists, etc.

It has PVR function (Personal Video Recorder) which plays and records videos in USB storage devices, with

time shift function. This option allows the playback of the TDT signal to be stopped at a given time and stored

in a temporary buffer in the USB device, so that you do not miss even one second of your favorite program

and you can return to that moment whenever you want.

It allows software upgrading through USB.

Software can be updated via USB.

The menus are easy to use with a quick start menu which makes tuning and conﬁguration of the receiver

easier the ﬁrst time you switch it on.
