Connecting Cables

Component video cables (Y, PB, PR), audio cables and modem cable are provided for connection to a DTV-compatible monitor/receiver. Shielded video cables (not provided) should be used for all other connections between components. For best results:

AC Power Supply Cord

CAUTION: TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK, MATCH WIDE BLADE OF PLUG TO WIDE SLOT OF AC OUTLET AND FULLY INSERT. DO NOT USE A PLUG WITH A RECEPTACLE OR OTHER OUTLET UNLESS THE BLADE CAN BE FULLY INSERTED TO PREVENT BLADE EXPOSURE.

Polarized Plug

Satellite Dish Antenna Connection

Connect the cable coming from the DIRECTV PLUS™ satellite dish to the Satellite In jack on the HDTV Digital Receiver.

Note: The shape of your satellite dish antenna determines what type of programming that your antenna can receive. If you have an oval shaped dish, you can receive programming from DIRECTV Satellites plus some local channels in certain areas.

Note: Consult your dealer on Satellite dish installation and options.

Antenna Installation and Orientation

Yagi

In many areas, an indoor antenna can be used to received DTV signals. Certain conditions, however, may create a situation where an outdoor antenna is required. Tall buildings, large metal objects (e.g., a water tower) or hills may block the line-of-sight to the TV station and interfere with DTV signal reception. Keep the following in mind when installing and orienting your outdoor antenna. For additional information about antennas, see the Consumer Electronics Manufacturing Association (CEMA) website at www.AntennaWeb.org or ask your local dealer.

rChoose an antenna with directional receiving characteristics such as a Yagi, log periodic, or reflector antenna. Avoid loop, wire bowtie, rabbit-ear and omni-directional antennas.
