This reminder is provided to call your attention to articles 810 and 820 of the 2005 National Electrical Code. Refer to article 810, in particular 810-1 and 810-15, for
required grounding of the metal structure of the dish antenna. Refer also to the 810-2 which, by reference to article 820, requires that the satellite dish coaxial cable
shield be connected to the grounding system of the building as close to the point of cable entry as practical.
Note to Satellite Dish Installer
• CAUTION: Avoid moisture to reduce the risk of fi re or electric shock.  e DIRECTV HD Receiver should not be used near water
(for example, kitchen sink, bathtub, pool, damp basement). Also, never spill liquid on the receiver, and do not place vases or other
vessels containing liquid on top of it.
• Ensure proper ventilation — the vent slots on the DIRECTV HD Receiver must be left uncovered to allow proper airfl ow to the
unit. Blocking the airfl ow to the unit could impair performance or damage your receiver and other components.
• Do not stack electronic components or other objects on top of the DIRECTV HD Receiver. Also, do not stack the receiver on top of
a “hot component” such as an audio power amplifi er.
• Protect your components from power surges by connecting all the components before plugging any power cords into the wall outlet.
Use of a surge protector is also recommended.
• Don’t overload power outlets or extension cords, which can result in the risk of fi re or shock. It’s also important to use only the type
of power source indicated on the marking label or in this manual.
• Avoid audio hum or interference by inserting all cable plugs fi rmly into their jacks. Also, place Audio/Video (A/V) cables to the sides of the TV back panel rather than down
the middle once connected. Try not to coil any twin-lead cables and keep them away from A/V cables as much as possible.
• Never insert objects of any kind into any openings in the DIRECTV HD Receiver (other than the DIRECTV
®
Access Card as detailed in this chapter).
• Place it on a fl at, hard surface — do not operate the DIRECTV HD Receiver on a carpet or other padded surface.
• Always unplug your DIRECTV HD Receiver before moving it.
• Always unplug the DIRECTV HD Receiver, TV and other equipment before you connect or disconnect any cables.
•  e mains power connector at the back of the unit or at the outlet should be accessible to allow quick shutdown in case of emergency.
• CAUTION: Electric Shock — never attempt to disassemble the DIRECTV HD Receiver yourself; always take it to a qualifi ed service person when repair is required.
Opening or removing covers may expose dangerous voltage or other risks, and incorrect reassembly can cause shock when receiver is subsequently used. Attempted self-
repair may also void your warranty. Changes or modifi cations not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance (by the warranty or by the manufacturer)
could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
• Do not drop your DIRECTV HD Receiver and always move it with care.
• Have your DIRECTV HD Receiver professionally serviced (do not attempt to service it yourself )
• Any changes or modifi cations in construction of this device which are not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to
operate the equipment.
• To reduce the risk of fi re, use only No. 26 AWG or better telecommunications line cord.
• Do not install this equipment in a confi ned space such as a book case or similar unit.
For your information:
•  e identifi cation sticker can be located underneath or on the back of your receiver.
•  e telecommunication network voltage used is the category number 3.
TIP
We highly recommend plugging
the DIRECTV HD Receiver into
a surge protector to prevent
damage from fl uctuations in your
power supply.

2) USB – For future services and accessories. Additional hardware may be required.
3) S-VIDEO OUT – Provides the best non-HD picture quality, better than VIDEO RCA-type jacks.
If your TV has only RCA and S-Video jacks, use it along with the audio jacks (S-Video only carries
picture information, not sound) to connect to your TV.
4) VIDEO OUT – Provides good, but non-HD, picture quality. You can connect the second RCA-
type composite VIDEO jack to another device, such as a VCR. You must also connect the AUDIO
cables when using the VIDEO connection.

also provides audio, for a high-quality, “one-cable” solution.
10) ETHERNET– For future use.
11) PHONE LINE– Connects the DIRECTV HD Receiver to a telephone line.  e DIRECTV
HD Receiver requires a land-based telephone line connection to communicate periodically with
DIRECTV.
12) POWER – Use to connect the power cord for your DIRECTV HD Receiver. We recommend
you use a surge protector to safeguard your DIRECTV HD Receiver from power spikes. Your
DIRECTV HD Receiver is rated to operate at 100-240V, with the appropriate power cord.
