Apex Digital DT502 TV Converter Box User Manual


 
Important Safety Information
Digital Television Transition Notice: This device contains a digital television tuner, so it should receive
digital over the air TV programming, with a suitable antenna, after the end of full-power analog TV
broadcasting in the United States on February 17, 2009. After February 17, 2009, a television receiver
with only an analog broadcast tuner will require a converter box to receive full power over-the-air
broadcasts with an antenna because of the Nation’s transition to digital broadcasting. Analog-only TVs
should continue to work as before to receive low power, Class A or translator television stations and with
cable and satellite TV services, gaming consoles, VCRs, DVD players, and similar products. When a
converter box is used with an older television receiver, a signal splitter might be necessary to continue
to receive low-power analog broadcasts via an antenna. Information about the DTV transition is
available from www.DTV.gov or 1-888-CALL-FCC, and from www.dtv2009.gov or 1-888-DTV-2009 for
information about subsidized coupons for digital-to-analog converter boxes.
