Use RECOVER if you have a snowy, all blue, or black screen on your TV and cannot get 
the picture back from your satellite receiver. When you press RECOVER as described, the 
remote control sends commands to your TV to change channels or video inputs to get 
back to watching satellite programming. This procedure works only if you have 
accidentally changed the TV channel or video input. It does not recover lost satellite signal 
(See Troubleshooting on page 126 for more information).

Note: The remote must be programmed to control the TV (and VCR, if applicable) for 
RECOVER to work as described.

Note: RECOVER will first try to tune your TV to channel 3, then channel 4, and then other 
video inputs with each press of RECOVER. You may need to press RECOVER up to 30 
times to recover your satellite TV video. If RECOVER is programmed to a specific 
channel, RECOVER will tune the TV to the specific channel first (for example, channel 
60).

When your Remote Control 2 is shipped from the factory, RECOVER is set up to restore 
satellite TV viewing by tuning your TV (or VCR) to channel 3, 4, and other inputs. To use 
RECOVER with your remote TV (or VCR), you need to program RECOVER with the 
specific three-digit number channel that you use to watch TV2 programming. (For two-digit 
number channels, use zero first. For example, enter channel 60 as 060.)  The following 
instructions describe how to program RECOVER to tune your remote TV (or VCR) back to 
a selected channel.

The following setup is required to use RECOVER:

The remote control must be set up to control the TV and, if installed, the VCR. 

If a VCR is installed, it must be connected as shown on page 116.
