Digital Switchover for Terrestrial broadcasts
Starting in late 2007 and ending in 2012, TV services in the UK will go completely
digital, TV region by TV region.
If you have any questions, please call Digital UK on 08456 50 50 50
or visit www.digitaluk.co.uk
Digital Switchover will cover a period of several weeks. When it starts you will lose all
Analogue TV programmes and some Digital TV programmes will be missing.
You will need to retune your TV each time this happens to recover your digital
programmes.
•
To retune your TV “Auto Setup” in “Tuning Menu”-DVB mode (p. 33)
Users of cable or satellite boxes should still retune the TV to continue to receive
Freeview services via their aerial. (Your Analogue programme for viewing Cable or
Satellite services will change to a new position.)

Due to the digital reception technologies involved, quality of the digital signals may be relatively low in some
cases, despite good reception of analogue programmes.
