6.2  Add a service to favorites  

 

If you want to add a service to your 

Favorites-view

 you can choose from services in the 

All-, 

Satellites-

and 

Provider-views

. You can switch views by pressing the 

red, green, yellow 

and 

blue 

Options-Buttons

. At this point we only describe the process from the 

All-Bouquet 

since it is the 

same for the others.  

 

 

 

Pressing the 

Up/Down-Buttons

 on your remote  

control activates the service list.  

Press the 

red Options-Button

 to change to the 

All view. 

Use the 

Navigation-Buttons up/down

 to select 

the desired service and press the 

MENU-Button 

to open the “Channellist menu”.  

 

 

Navigate to the option “add service to bouquet”. 

If you are using more than one bouquet this 

option is named “add service to bouquet” instead 

and you will get a list of your bouquets 

afterwards. You can choose to which bouquet 

you want to add the currently selected service. 

If you are using only one bouquet which is the 

factory default, the service will be added to you 

favorites list.
