Welcome to Your Manhattan T4

We’re excited to bring you all your favourite TV, all in one place and all for free. From edge-of-the-seat thrillers to laugh-a-minute comedies, your T4 makes it easy to find and enjoy all your favourite subscription-free channels and programmes.

Learn All About Your T4
Available on our website or directly on the T4, the Help section is where you’ll find detailed information on setting up, using, configuring and troubleshooting your T4.

Unlock the Full T4 Experience
While your T4 works great as a standalone TV box with an aerial, connecting it to the internet unlocks its full potential. Enjoy popular apps such as BBC iPlayer, ITVX and more, along with integrated catch up and a vast collection of on demand programmes and movies. To get started, simply connect your T4 to your Wi-Fi or use an Ethernet cable to connect to your router.

Before You Plug In
Please read the Safety section of the Important Information booklet.

Unpack Your Gift Box

You Need

• A TV with an HDMI input.
• A TV aerial and cable. While some indoor (portable) aerials may pick up Freeview channels, for best results use a rooftop aerial.
• An internet connection using Wi-Fi or an Ethernet cable (not included) for apps and Freeview Play features.

Connect Up

Required

1. Connect a TV aerial cable (not included) from your aerial wall socket to the T4’s AERIAL IN socket.
2. Connect the included HDMI cable from an HDMI socket on your TV to the T4’s HDMI socket.
3. Connect the included power adapter to the T4’s POWER socket, then plug the other end into a wall socket that is turned off.

Optional

• If you’d rather use a wired connection instead of Wi-Fi, connect an Ethernet cable (not included) from the T4’s ETHERNET socket to your broadband router.
• To use your TV’s tuner, connect an aerial cable (not included) from your T4’s LOOP OUT socket to your TV’s aerial socket. Please note that to conserve energy the LOOP OUT socket is disabled in standby. However, after set-up you can change this by pressing SETTINGS and going to: System > Standby Options.
• If you have an AV receiver that doesn’t support HDMI, you can connect an optical audio cable (not included) from your T4’s OPTICAL socket to your AV receiver.

Search

Enter a programme’s name using the on-screen keyboard and suggestions will appear as you type. To view the results, highlight a suggestion or your search term and press OK.

Reminders

To add a reminder for an upcoming programme, highlight it and press OK. To cancel the reminder, press OK again while the programme is highlighted.

Reminders alert you shortly before a programme begins. By default, reminders are shown only when the T4 is active and not in standby. To watch the programme, select Watch before the reminder countdown ends. If not selected in time, the reminder will be cancelled and the channel will not change.

There’s a setting called Reminder Auto Watch that you can change by pressing HOME and going to Settings > System. When enabled, the T4 will automatically switch on from standby for the reminder and change to the appropriate channel. If the T4 is already active, reminders will appear as normal, with the channel changing automatically once the countdown ends.

Controlling Your TV

Using HDMI Control
HDMI Control allows your T4 to communicate with your TV. The Activation Sync feature is turned on when you first set up, providing the following benefits:

• Turning on your T4 will also power on your TV and switch to the correct input.
• Turning off your TV will automatically switch off your T4.

Learning Steps

Before Starting

• Set your T4’s volume to maximum to ensure the correct volume level from your TV after learning is complete.
• Put your T4 in standby to avoid it responding to the T4 remote during the learning steps.
• Place your T4 and TV remotes facing each other on a flat surface, slightly apart.

Test each button with your TV. If a button does not work, repeat the steps to teach it again. Please note that some TVs use non-standard remote signals and may not be compatible with the T4 remote.

Resetting Your T4 Remote
To reset all programmed buttons and return them to their original state, press and hold the S/AD and RED buttons for 3 seconds until the button blinks blue.

Troubleshooting
