mains power socket and switch it on.

What happens if you get a software update
We update all our BT Vision+ boxes from time to time. If an 
update becomes available after your new BT Vision+ box is 
sent to you, your box will automatically detect it as soon as 
it’s connected. Your box will automatically restart a few times, 
so please let it finish before continuing. If the update starts 
while you’re setting up, you’ll need to start set-up again.
