PREPARATION
Your converter’s remote control requires two AAA batteries (not sup- plied) for power. For the best performance and longest life, we recommend RadioShack alkaline batter- ies.
Cautions:•Use only fresh batteries of the required size and recommended type.
•Do not mix old and new batteries, different types of batteries (stan- dard, alkaline, or rechargeable), or rechargeable batteries of different capacities.
Follow these steps to install batteries.
1.Slide the battery compartment cover in the direction of the arrow to remove it.
2.Place the batteries in the com- partment as indicated by the polarity symbols (+ and
3.Replace the cover.
When the remote control stops operating properly, replace the batteries.
Warning: Dispose of old batteries promptly and properly. Do not burn or bury them.
Caution: If you do not plan to use the remote control for a month or more, remove the batteries. Batteries can leak chemicals that can destroy electronic parts.
SETTING CH4/CH3
Set your TV’s tuner to Channel 3 or 4 (whichever is not used for broadcasts in your area). Then set CH4/CH3 on the back of the converter to match the channel you selected on your TV’s tuner.
CHOOSING THE CABLE SYSTEM TYPE
There are three types of cable TV channel frequency systems: stan- dard, IRC, and HRC. Most cable systems use a standard system. Your converter is preset to use a standard channel frequency system.
