    Why does my THOMSON Receiver switch off after 3 hours?

      Tyrone WeaverSep 8, 2025
      If your receiver switches off after 3 hours of inactivity, it's likely because the power-saving Auto Standby function is activated. You can switch this function off in the settings if you prefer.

      Luke PhillipsSep 14, 2025
      If the display on the front panel isn't lighting up, first check that the mains cable is properly plugged into the power socket. If it is, the mains fuse might be blown, so check the mains fuse as well.

    What can cause my THOMSON Receiver to have too strong a signal?
    • E
      Elizabeth RochaSep 18, 2025
      If the signal is too strong, it could be because the dish is oversized. To resolve this, connect a signal attenuator to the LNB input.
