PREPARATION
Your converter’s remote control re-
quires two AAA batteries (not sup-
plied) for power. For the best
performance and longest life, we rec-
ommend 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 –) marked
inside.
3. Replace the cover.
When the remote control stops operat-
ing 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 elec-
tronic 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 sys-
tems use a standard system. Your
converter is preset to use a standard
channel frequency system.
