How to Get Started
Welcome!
You’re about to enjoy a Digital Video Recorder!
This satellite receiver lets you decide how you watch TV. You can record and
play back audio and video with full digital quality. You can pause a live
program and not miss any of the action or you can record a program to watch
later, without a VCR.
This device is also an advanced satellite receiver, with features like a UHF/IR
remote control, on-screen program information, themes to select programs,
favorite lists, program locks, Dolby
®
Digital sound, and more.
Note
: Portions of your system may be marked with DishPVR and PVR or
DishDVR and DVR. Either way, the system works just the same.

•
Always handle the satellite receiver carefully. Avoid
excessive shock and vibration at all times as this can
damage the hard drive.
•
If you have the receiver turned on and need to move it,
be sure to unplug the receiver and let it sit for at least
30 seconds before moving it.
•
Do not install the receiver in any area where the
temperature can be less than 40°F or more than 113°F
while the unit is operating.
•
If the receiver is cold to the touch, do not plug it in
immediately. Let it sit unplugged at room temperature
for at least 45 minutes before plugging it in.
•
Avoid installing the receiver on top of or underneath
another electronic device (such as a stereo receiver) as
this can cause heat build-up and vibration.
