Ensuring optimum performance of MyStar
Your MyStar contains a hard drive that is sensitive to heat and movement. In order to get the most from your
MyStar we strongly advise:
• Leave 7cm to 10cm around the set top box to ensure that proper ventilation gets to the set top box.
• Do not store your set top box on its side.
• To clean the set top box, use a dry, clean soft cloth with no cleaning solvent or abrasive products. Clean the
ventilation openings regularly.
• To maintain the life of the MyStar hard drive, we recommend that you turn the set top box to Standby if it’s not
in use for long periods of time. In Standby, your scheduled recordings will still occur.
MyStar Remote Control
Your MyStar remote control is specifically designed to be used with your MyStar or My Star HD set top box. The
MyStar remote control requires AA batteries (MN1500, LR6 or UM-3). The batteries (battery pack or batteries
installed) should not be exposed to excessive heat such as sunshine or fire.
Replace the batteries as follows:
• Remove the battery cover by pushing the catch and sliding the cover away
• Carefully remove the old batteries
• Put the new batteries in, matching the marks + and –
• Put the cover back on, sliding the top part in and making sure the catch clicks in to place
Environmental Information

cardboardrecycling.
• Alternatively, you can hold onto the MyStar packaging, for future safe transportation of your set top box.
• The batteries use some hazardous substances which can pollute for the environment. Do not throw themout.
Remember to dump them in collection points.
