The Assisted Setup appears the first time the digital satellite system is turned on, but if you need to run the setup again, press the remote control’s MENU button to display the Main menu, then select System Setup, and finally select Assisted Setup.

Audio/Video (A/V) Jacks/Cables (RCA-type)

A/V cables provide good picture quality and stereo sound, and should be used if your TV has no S-video jacks. The digital satellite receiver’s A/V jacks are color coded (yellow for video, red for right audio, and white for left audio). If your TV has only one input for audio (mono), connect it to the left (white) audio jack on the satellite receiver.
