Safety & Care
Making the Right Connections
When you are ready to connect your DIRECTV® Receiver and your other components, whether
you’re having your system professionally installed or handling it yourself, be sure to read over the
following few pages to familiarize yourself with some important tips for safety and care.
Before you begin
Your satellite dish antenna must be installed before you can begin following the procedures in this
User Guide. (Professional installation is highly recommended.) Your dish needs to be mounted
in a position where it has access to the satellite signals, and RG-6 coaxial cables must be run into
the room(s) where your receiver(s) will be located. If you choose to install the dish yourself, see the
separate instruction manual that came with your satellite dish antenna.
