Setting Up Your DIRECTV® Sat-Go

Guided Setup and Activation

1Make sure the MODE SWITCH on the remote control is set to DIRECTV.

3Simply follow the onscreen directions to complete your setup functions. You’ll be guided though various selections and functions for setting up and optimizing your antenna signal and setup — including positioning your antenna and a system test.

Throughout the remainder of the Guided Setup, use the arrow keys on the remote control to move to an option or desired selection and then press SELECT.

a Select the desired language and press SELECT.

b Select antenna type Round Dish and press SELECT.

c Enter the ZIP Code for your location and press SELECT. d Align the antenna, see “Aligning the Antenna” on page 25.

4Once completed, you will see a Welcome screen and now you’re ready to watch TV.

Important:

In order to protect your TV screen from burn-in (a side-effect caused when a stationary image is displayed for too long), the DIRECTV Sat-Go system interface automatically goes into screen saver mode, and displays a black screen with a moving logo when no key is pressed for 5 minutes or more while a stationary image is displayed on the TV. To dismiss the screen saver and return to what you were doing, press any key on the remote. Burn-in may cause permanent damage to your TV and DIRECTV is not liable for any damages that may be caused to your TV.
