Hooking Up the VCR
Position the Receiver
Position the receiver above the VCR. You may
need to position it at different angles before the
VCR can control it. Make sure the receiver does
not cover the transmitting window on top of the
VCR.
Do not stack electronic components or other
objects on top of the satellite receiver. The slots on
top of the receiver must be left uncovered to allow

receiver and other components. Also, do not stack
the satellite receiver on top of a Òhot componentÓ
such as an audio power amplifier.
