•  Do not remove the cover (or back) of the receiver. If you remove the cover you expose yourself to dangerous voltages. The 

unit may cause electric shocks or short circuits when switched on if incorrectly assembled.

•  Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Moreover, if you open the receiver you void the warranty and your right to 

use the decoder.

•  If you use the receiver with 220 AC power you must use a suitable connector. To reduce the risk of fire, use a 

telecommunications line cord AWG No. 26 or higher.

•  Ensure proper ventilation – the vent slots on the DIRECTV Receiver must be left uncovered to allow proper airflow to the 

unit. Blocking the airflow to the unit could impair performance or damage your receiver and other components.

•  Do not stack electronic components or other objects on the DIRECTV HD/ HD DVR receiver. Also, do not place the receiver 

on a “hot component” such as an audio power amplifier.

•  Always place the receiver on a flat, firm surface. Do not operate on a rug or other padded surface.
•  Avoid audio hum or interference by inserting the cable plugs firmly into their jacks. Once connected, place the Audio/Video 

(A/V) cables on the sides of the TV back panel, rather than down the middle. Do not coil the twin-lead wires. Keep them as 

far from A/V Cables as possible.

•  Never insert any objects into the openings of the DIRECTV HD/ HD DVR receiver, except for the DIRECTV Access Card that 

goes in the front slot.

•  Using NOT authorized electrical cables can cause electric shocks, fire, injury and / or property damage.
