HOW TO RESCAN YOUR FREEVIEW BOX
Check your box has updated automatically: when you are watching TV, press 13 on your remote control. If More4 appears at channel 13 then you don't need to do anything. If channel 13 is still S4C2 then you need to rescan your box manually.

Your box may give you the option to rescan, in which case do so. This way, you will pick up ALL the channels available to you.

Your box may do nothing, in which case you definitely need to rescan it manually.

How long will this take?
Different box models take between three and 30 minutes to rescan. You may be unable to watch TV during this time.

What will change?
Your digital TV set or box will scan for all digital channels that it can receive via your aerial in your area. It will store some of the channels with new numbers.

If your box has not been rescanned for a while, you may receive some channels for the first time now that your box has registered them and stored them.

If for any reason you lose channels through the rescan process this could be due to poor weather or how strong or weak the digital signal is that day. You'll need to rescan another time.

Your box will not retain any personal settings you have made. For example 'favourites' and parental lock. You will need to reset these.
