Cautions
To prevent electric shock, match wide blade of plug to slot, fully
insert.
Pour Cviter les chocs electriques, introduire la lame la plus large de
la fiche dans la borne correspondante de la prise et pousser jusqu’
au fond.
Do not stack electronic components or other objects on top of
the DSS Receiver.
The slots on top of the receiver must be left
uncovered to allow proper airflow to the unit. Blocking the airflow to
the unit could impair performance or damage your receiver and other
components.
Do not stack the DSS receiver on top of a “hot component” such as
an audio power amplifier.
Do not defeat the safety feature of the plug. The wire blade fits into
the wall socket only one way. If you need an extension cord, make
sure it matches the plug of the receiver/decoder.
FCC Regulations state that unauthorized changes or modifications to
this equipment may void the user’s authority to operate it.

Getting Started
What is the DSS System?
.
._.-*
i
.j
You’ve purchased the
DSS
TM Digital Satellite System, so you already
know a lot of the great things it offers. You know that the DSS system
uses the latest sateiiite technoiogy to deiiver teievision programming to
your home. And you know that programs are broadcast in digital
format, so the quality of the picture and audio rivals that of laser discs
and CDs. You know the dish is small-18 inches-and that it often can
be installed in a matter of hours. (See the DSS Satellite Dish Antenna
T___r_.ll_.. fl..II-c-- ____:c:_ :_c____e:__ \
17LXULK7- CTUZUe IWI S~CClllC 1IllUlIIldLIUIl.j
Those are the some of the things you probably know about the DSS
system. But what about the things you don’t know? For instance...
l
The DSS system works like your ‘IV.
Pick up the DSS remote
and push the DSS button -a program comes on the TV. Press
the Channel Up/Down buttons to scan through the channels.
Press the number keys to go directly to a channel.
l
There is an
on-screen Program Guide. The
Program Guide
lists the available programs and times. It is designed to help
you select regular programs and pay-per-view events. You can
also sort the Guide to list only specific types of programs. You
can select Sports, for example, and your guide will show
current and upcoming sports programs only. Or movies. Or
news.
l
There is the
DSS on-screen Menu System
that allows you to
customize your system: set up your system, build channei
k.tS,
preview coming attractions, set spending limits, and receive
mail from your program providers.
l
There are three types of
On-line Help
to assist you in learning
to use the DSS system: Auto Help, Help buttons, and the Help
menu. (See Using
On-line Help,
page 14.)

Using This Manual
Using this Manual
Important Note about This User’s Manual
The ourooqe of this User’s Manual is to give you the information you’ll
I- --I- -&-
need to begin using the DSS system. The manual is divided into two
parts:
Section 1: Using Your DSS System
contains the information and the
steps necessary to learn how one simple rule-Point and Selectallows you to use every feature in the Program Guide and the menu
system. (See 7%e
Only Rule: Point and Select
on page
5.)
Section
2: Setting
Up Your DSS System
contains chapters of
information that may be necessary if you move, change, or add
components in your DSS system. This section includes the steps
necessary to:
l
Set up your DSS remote control
l
Connect the DSS receiver to your TV and other components
l
Order DSS accessories
This manual assumes that your DSS system has been installed,
meaning:
1.
2.
3.
The DSS satellite dish has been installed, correctly pointed at
the satellite. and connected to your DSS receiver.
c_________, _.__-. _______ _.~
The DSS receiver is connected to your television and telephone
line.
The access card is installed in your DSS receiver.
Note: Your access card has been matched to your receiver, and should already be
installed when you take the receiver out of the packing box. The access card should
only be taken out of the DSS receiver when you are issued a new card by your
programming providers.
4.
The DSS TV Universal Remote Control has batteries and has
been programmed to control both your DSS receiver and your
TV (if your TV is remote-controllable).
If your system has not been installed, refer to the satellite dish
Installer’s Guide
for information regarding proper installation. Then,
refer to the section,
Connecting
Your DSS
