Important Safety Instructions
1 Read these instructions. 2 Keep these instructions. 3 Heed all warnings. 4 Follow all instructions. 5 Do not use this apparatus near water. 6 Clean only with a dry cloth. 7 Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. 8 Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that
produce heat.
9 Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider
than the other. A grounding-type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obso­lete outlet.
10 Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched, particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point
where they exit from the apparatus.
11 Use only attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer. 12 Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time. 13 Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way,
such as the power supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.
Apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus.
v
Safety
Note to Satellite TV System Installer: This reminder is provided to call the satellite TV system installer’s
attention to Article 820-40 of the National Electrical Code (NEC) that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building as
close to the point of cable entry as practical.
Operate the receiver using only the type of power source indicated on the marking label. Unplug the
receiver power cord by gripping the power plug, not the cord.
Do not overload wall outlets or extension cords, as this can result in a risk of fire or electrical shock.
Never insert objects of any kind into the receiver through openings, as the objects may touch dangerous
voltage points or short out parts. This could cause fire or electrical shock.
Do not locate the antenna near overhead light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or
circuits. When installing the antenna, take extreme care to avoid touching such power lines or circuits, as contact with them can be fatal.
Do not attempt to service the receiver yourself, as opening or removing covers may expose you to danger-
ous voltage, and will void the Limited Warranty. Refer all servicing to authorized service personnel.
Proper Care of Your Equipment
Always handle the satellite receiver carefully. Avoid excessive shock and vibration at all times as this can
damage the hard drive.
Unplug the receiver from the AC power outlet before cleaning.
If you have the receiver turned on and need to move it, be sure to unplug the receiver and let it sit for at
least 30 seconds before moving it.
The use of accessories or attachments not recommended by the receiver manufacturer will void the Limited
Warranty.
Do not place the receiver in an enclosure such as a cabinet without proper ventilation.
Do not stack the receiver on top of or below other electronic devices as this can cause heat build-up and
vibration.
Do not install the receiver in any area where the temperature can be less than 40°F or more than 113°F. If
the receiver is cold to the touch, do not plug it in immediately. Let it sit unplugged at room temperature for at least 45 minutes before plugging it in.
Use an outlet that contains surge suppression or ground fault protection. For added protection during a
lightning storm, or when the receiver is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet, disconnect the lines between the receiver and the antenna, and disconnect the telephone line. This will provide some protection against damage caused by lightning or power line surges.
On some TVs, the presence of fixed images for extended periods of time may cause them to be permanently imprinted on the screen. Consult your TV user guide for information on whether this is a problem for your TV, what operating/viewing restrictions apply to avoid this problem, and associated TV warranty coverage.

ABOUT SATELLITE TV RECEPTION
Satellite television uses satellites in a stationary orbit over the Earth to deliver television and audio programming. This type of orbit enables the satellites to stay aligned over one place on the surface of the Earth. Once the satellite dish is aimed at the satellite, the dish does not have to move to follow it.
Here’s something interesting! Noted science fiction author Arthur C. Clarke calculated the orbit that causes satellites to remain stationary in the sky. To this day the 22,000 mile high orbit bears the name Clarke Belt.

Rain and Snow Fade
Heavy rain, snow, or dense cloud cover can reduce the satellite signal, which may interrupt your programming service. Your service will return after the weather condition has passed. Aiming the satellite dish to get the strongest signal during installation, will help prevent rain and snow from interrupting the signal.

Why Connect to a Phone Line
Solar Interference
Twice a year, the sun moves to a position behind the DISH Network satellite as it orbits the Earth. This event occurs during a few days at the beginning of the spring and the beginning of the autumn and lasts only a few minutes.
During these brief periods, you will not be able to see programs on DISH Network. When the sun has moved from behind the satellite, the programs will reappear. This is an unavoidable natural event for all television involving the use of satellites and has an adverse effect on many program providers.
WHY CONNECT TO A PHONE LINE
Your satellite receiver is equipped with a standard telephone jack that you use to connect to an active telephone line. Keep the receiver connected to an active telephone line so that you will be able to order pay-per-view programs using your remote control, use all of the dish home Interactive TV features, and other services from DISH Network (see page 39).
MOVING ON-SCREEN LOGO
Whenever the receiver is turned off using the remote control or front panel POWER button, you will see the DISH Network logo moving around on your TV screen. This feature is included with your receiver to assure you that the connections between your receiver and TV(s) are not lost. Press POWER or SELECT on the remote control to resume watching satellite TV programming.
The moving logo does not display if you have the receiver connected to the TV with the TV SET OUT connection (see page 73).

Remote Control
REMOTE CONTROL
Remote Control Batteries
The remote control gives you easy access to all the features of your satellite receiver. You can program the remote to control the satellite receiver and up to three other devices (see page 50). These devices can be a TV, a VCR or DVD player, and a third device.
This section describes how to use the various features of the remote control delivered with your satellite TV system.
IR signals travel only short distances (40 feet or less), and cannot go through walls or other solid objects. You must point the remote control directly at the device, with no objects blocking the line of sight.
The remote control uses IR signals to control both the receiver and other devices that the remote is programmed to control.
The remote control comes with four AAA batteries. When you replace old batteries, you should replace all of the batteries. Use batteries of the same kind, for example, alkaline or carbon zinc. Don’t mix batteries of different kinds. Alkaline batteries last longer.
1 Press down on the top of the battery cover and slide the cover off. 2 Take out all of the old batteries. 3 Put four new batteries in. Make sure you match the plus (“+”) ends with the
plus markings on the battery case. Note: The remote control cannot work with less than four AAA batteries.
4 Slide the cover back into place.
Low Battery Warning
When you see a low battery warning message on your screen below the Program Banner, the batteries in your remote control are weak and need to be replaced.
Here's a helpful hint...Don’t wait until you see this warning to change the remote control batteries. If your remote control doesn’t seem to be working very well (for example, you have to press POWER more than once to turn the receiver on or off), it’s a good indication that the batteries are getting weak.
