Your digital satellite receiver is able to receive upgrades or modifications to some of its fea- tures and functions. These modifications will automatically be finished, usually at times when the receiver would likely be turned off. If your receiver is on when an upgrade or modi- fication is sent, you may experience a disruption in reception for a minute or two. Your recep- tion should return to normal after the modification is complete. Your receiver must be plugged in to receive any upgrades. Do not unplug your receiver while an upgrade is in progress. Please consult the Upgrade Menu to find a schedule of upgrades or modifications planned by DIRECTV.
