• Make sure the component code on your universal remote

control is set to our brand.

Refer to the manual accompanying your remote control for

more details.

• We do not guarantee 100% interoperability with all universal

remote controls.

CH RETURN

Battery Precautions:

• Be sure to follow the correct polarity as indicated in the battery compartment. Reversed batteries may cause damage to the device.

• Do not mix different types of batteries together (e.g., Alkaline and Carbon-Zinc, or rechargeable batteries like ni-cad, ni-mh, etc) or

old batteries with fresh ones.

• If the device is not to be used for a long period of time, remove the batteries to prevent damage or injury from possible battery leakage.

• Do not try to recharge batteries; they can overheat and rupture.

Installing the Batteries

Install the batteries (AA x 2) matching the polarity indicated inside battery compartment of the remote control.

REPARATION

Before you connect...

Be sure your antenna or other device is connected properly before plugging in the AC power cord.

Antenna Connection

Connect the RF coaxial cable on your home outlet to the antenna input jack of this unit.

Once connections are completed, turn on the unit and begin initial setup. Channel scanning is necessary for the unit

to memorize all available channels in your area. (Refer to “Initial Setup” on page 13.)

Note:

• If you have any question about the DTV’s antenna, visit www.antennaweb.org for further information.

• Depending on your antenna system, you may need different types of combiners (mixers) or separators (splitters). Contact your local

electronics store for these items.

• For your safety and to avoid damage to this unit, please unplug the RF coaxial cable from the antenna input jack before moving the unit.

• If you use an antenna to receive analog TV, it should also work for DTV reception. Outdoor or attic antennas will be more effective than

settop versions.

• To switch your reception source easily between antenna and cable, install an antenna selector.

• If you connect to the cable system directly, contact the CATV installer.

Connection to Cable Receiver or Satellite Box

Use an HDMI or an RCA component video cable to connect the HDMI or the component video input jack of the unit to the

HDMI or the component video output jack of the cable receiver / satellite box.

If you connect to the unit’s COMPONENT video input jack, connect an RCA audio cable to the audio L/R jack of

COMPONENT accordingly.
