460452 2006-06-04 23:11:00 This is for all sky digital subscribers

A number of SKY Digital channels will be off the air on 6th June from 1AM for a period of up to two hours for routine maintenance . Once the maintenance has been completed, to restore normal service simply 'channel up' on your remote .
Firstly change channels using the channel up/down button . If this does not restore your picture select Ch . 40 (Disney Channel) or Ch . 56 (CNN) . If these pictures are restored this means your decoder is working correctly but that maintenance is still continuing on the affected services .

If pictures are not restored on any service including Ch . 40 or Ch . 56, Turn off the switch at the power point and then unplug the power lead for the SKY Decoder from the mains supply (wall socket outlet) . Wait approximately 15 seconds and then reconnect the power supply to the decoder . Your picture should be restored in 60 seconds .


In the unlikely event your decoder still does not work SKY will arrange for a technician to visit you . Please call 0800 759 759 .
