If the TV does not have HDMI then I would plug the scart lead into the socket marked TV on the V+ box then plug the other end into the TV (AV1) socket. This will get you menus. The menus do not appear when using the VCR socket as stated above.

If you have a V+ box and a HDMI TV then you really should get an HDMI cable for around £5 - £15. (Don't spend a fortune or be conned by the salesman though) The picture will be upscaled and alot better that scart. You will also be able to watch the HD channels depending on your subscription.

CableFan is right about the lights. This is normal.

Hope this helps
