Amber = Standby
Green stuff
At Sky we believe the world’s a great place, so we’re doing what we can to keep
it that way.
Saving energy… with standby
Switching your Sky±HD box to standby when it’s not in use can save up to 50%
of the energy it uses. Remember that the box can still make recordings when in
standby so we recommend you make a habit of pressing the standby button
(so the light on the box turns amber) as soon as you finish watching TV.
Alternatively, you can switch your Sky±HD box off by pressing and holding the
standby button for 5 seconds (so the light on the box turns red). Remember that
when the box is off, it cannot make recordings.
…and Auto Standby
Your Sky±HD box features an energy saving mode called Auto Standby. If the box
is inactive throughout any two hour period between 11pm and 4am, it automatically
goes into standby. Just before this happens, if your TV is on, you see a message
on screen. You can press back up to remove the message, otherwise your Sky±HD
box goes into standby.
This does not affect any recordings you have set, as the box can still perform up to
two simultaneous recordings while in standby.
When you turn the box back on it will be tuned to the channel you last watched.
If you want to switch off Auto Standby, press services (for Options), press down
then select the Sky± Set Up tab. Highlight Auto Standby and use left/right to choose
OFF then press green (Save Settings).
