CONNECTING THE EQUIPMENT (cont.)
WARNINGS
Do not connect your set-top box (or any other equipment such as a TV or VCR) to the power supply until
you have properly connected all the other cables.
Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades
with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The
wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety.
Connecting the power supply unit to your set-top box
Before you insert the power supply unit into the wall AC outlet, connect the 12 volt DC cord from the power
supply unit to the socket labeled “Power” on your set-top box’s rear panel.
Connecting equipment to the wall AC outlets
Connect your set-top box’s power supply unit, and the plugs on the power cords from your TV, DVD player,
and any other equipment, into wall AC outlets. If these outlets have switches, switch them ON.
Turning your set-top box on and off
After you have connected your set-top box’s power supply unit to the wall AC outlet (and switched this outlet
ON, if it has a switch), press the
Power
button on your set-top box’s front panel to turn it on. The Power
light around the
Power
button should light up blue, to show that your set-top box is on.
To turn your set-top box on or off at any time, press the
Power
button on the front panel or remote control
(see also below, if you have an RF remote control).
Never turn off your set-top box by simply disconnecting it from the power supply. If you need to disconnect
your set-top box, first stop any recording (if applicable). Then turn off your set-top box by pressing the
Power
button on the front panel or your remote control, so that the Power light goes off. Then wait 60
seconds before removing the power supply unit from the wall AC outlet.
Power Saving: To save power and money, and to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, turn off
your set-top box, using the
Power button, when it is not in use.
Lightning storms
Disconnect your set-top box’s power cord during lightning storms. A lightning storm may affect your set-top
box, if it is on during the storm. It may appear that it has stopped working, but you can easily restore its
operation as follows:
Unplug your set-top box’s power supply unit from the wall AC outlet. Then plug this power supply unit in
again at the wall AC outlet (and, if there is a switch by this outlet, switch it to its ON position).
A blue light around
the button turns on.
To turn your set-top box on,
press the
Power
button.
