Proper Care of Your Equipment
• Always handle the satellite receiver carefully. Excessive shock and vibration can
damage the hard drive.
• If the equipment is turned on and needs to be moved, unplug the equipemnt and let it
sit for at least 30 seconds before moving it.
• The use of accessories or attachments not recommended by the receiver
manufacturer voids the Limited Warranty.
• Do not stack the receiver on top of or below other electronic devices as this can cause
heat build-up and vibration.
On some TVs, the presence of fixed images for extended periods of time may
cause them to be permanently imprinted on the screen. Consult your TV user
guide for information on whether this is a problem for your TV, what operating/
viewing restrictions apply to avoid this problem, and associated TV warranty
coverage.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which
can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to
correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the antenna assembly.
• Increase the separation between the equipment.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the DISH
receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
