FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTiONS NOTiCE: The first step in resolving problems related to the illico TV service is to reboot the terminal. Rest assured—your terminal settings, as well as the recordings on your HD PVR will remain intact. To reboot the terminal, unplug the power supply cord, then plug it back in again a few seconds later. - Page 44 Why is the sound on my TV so low? Your terminal’s Volume function controls the strength of the audio signal emitted by the terminal. When the terminal’s volume is low, the signal it sends to the TV is equally low. To prevent this, we suggest that you program your remote control to your TV by following the instructions on page 14, and then program the terminal so that you can only control the volume on your TV.
