How to Get Starte d
Overview
Before you use your s atellite receiver, you need to install the system or
have it installe d by a professional technician. For a professional installation,
please call the C ustomer Service Center at 1-800-333-DIS H (3474). If you
install the system yourself, use the instructions in Chapter 4.
A vital pa rt of the installation is to set up the receiver to get
the latest softwar e via the satellite signal. You cannot use the
receiver’s features until you do! If you are installing a new
system and follow the instructions in Chapter 4, your r eceiver
will automatica lly get this software.
After you install your system ( or add this receiver to an existing system ),
all you need to do is order your pr ogram packages using the instruc tions
