ABOUT THE DISH NETWORK EZ REMOTE CONTROL

The DISH Network EZ Remote Control makes operating your DISH Network satellite receiver easy and convenient. This r emote control includes large, easy-tofind buttons which are most commonly used to control the basic satellite receiver features you need. In addition, the DISH Network EZ Remote Control lets you switch between satellite receiver programmingand programming from an off-air antenna with the press of one button.

BUTTONS AND FEATURES OVERVIEW

Figure 1 on page iv briefly describes each button on the DISH Network EZ R emote Control. M ost of thesebuttons work the same way a s the buttons on other DISH Network remote controls. See the User’s Guide for your DISH Network satellite r eceiver for a description of how your satellite receiver works with these buttons.

There are some added buttons on this remote control to make operation with your TV easier. These buttons are:

SATELLITE CHANNEL CONTROL - Press to switch

your TV to watch programming from your satellite receiver.

OFF-AIR CHANNEL CONTROL - Press to switch your
