6DIRECTV® HD DVR RECEIVER USER GUIDESAFETY & CAREYour DIRECTV® Receiver has been designed and manufactured to stringent quality and safety standards. You should, however, be aware of the following important precautions for safe and optimal use of the equipment. Meaning of symbols printed on the rear panel of the product: This symbol indicates that dangerous voltage with a risk of electric shock is present within this unit.This symbol indicates that there are important operating and maintenance instructions in the literature accompanying this unit. Important Safety Instructions1. Read these instructions.2. Keep these instructions.3. Heed all warnings.4. Follow all instructions.5. Do not use this apparatus near water.6. Clean only with dry cloth.7. Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.8. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves or other apparatus (including ampliﬁers) that produce heat.9. 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. If the provided plug does not ﬁt into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.10. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles and the point where they exit the apparatus.11. Use only attachments/accessories speciﬁed by the manufacturer.12. Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket or table speciﬁed by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.13. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.14. Refer all servicing to qualiﬁed service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.• Ensure proper ventilation — the vent slots on the DIRECTV® Receiver must be left uncovered to allow proper airﬂow to the unit. Blocking the airﬂow to the unit could impair performance or damage your Receiver and other components.15. Use only the power supply (power cord) that came with your DIRECTV Receiver. Failure to use the authorized power supply (power cord) may cause electric shock, ﬁre, bodily injury and/or property damage. If the power supply (power cord) becomes damaged or needs to be replaced, please contact DIRECTV Customer Service to obtain an authorized replacement. DRAFT

7SAFETY & CARECAUTION: Avoid moisture to reduce the risk of ﬁre or electric shock. The DIRECTV® Receiver should not be used near water (for example, kitchen sink, bathtub, pool, damp basement). Also, never spill liquid on the Receiver. Do not place vases or other vessels containing liquid on top of it.WARNING: To reduce the risk of ﬁre or electric shock, do not expose this product to rain or moisture. The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and no objects ﬁlled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus.WARNING: Use only the power supply (power cord) that came with your DIRECTV Receiver. Failure to use the authorized power supply (power cord) may cause electric shock, ﬁre, bodily injury and/or property damage. If the power supply (power cord) becomes damaged or needs to be replaced, please contact DIRECTV Customer Service to obtain an authorized replacement.IMPORTANT: Be sure not to place your DIRECTV® Receiver near anything WET or HOT!If this product is rated at 240VAC, a suitable attachment plug should be used.TIP: We highly recommend plugging the DIRECTV® Receiver into a surge protector to prevent damage from ﬂuctuations in your power supply. CAUTION: To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove cover (or back).No user-serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to qualiﬁed service personnel.CAUTIONRISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT OPEN!• Do not stack electronic components or other objects on top of the DIRECTV® Receiver. Also, do not stack the Receiver on top of a “hot component” such as an audio power ampliﬁer.• Protect your components from power surges by connecting all the components before plugging any power cords into the wall outlet. Use of a surge protector is also recommended.• Don’t overload power outlets or extension cords, which can result in the risk of ﬁre or shock. It’s also important to use only the type of power source indicated on the marking label or in this manual.• Avoid audio hum or interference by inserting all cable plugs ﬁrmly into their jacks. Also, place Audio/Video (A/V) cables to the sides of the TV back panel rather than down the middle once connected. Try not to coil any twin-lead cables and keep them away from A/V cables as much as possible.• Never insert objects of any kind into any openings in the DIRECTV® Receiver (other than the DIRECTV® Access Card as detailed in this manual).• Place it on a ﬂat, hard surface — do not operate the DIRECTV® Receiver on a carpet or other padded surface.• Always unplug your DIRECTV® Receiver before moving it.• Always unplug the DIRECTV® Receiver, TV and other equipment before you connect or disconnect any cables.• The only way to disconnect the DIRECTV® Receiver from the power supply is to remove the power cord. The DIRECTV® Receiver unit must therefore be installed next to the power point which must be easily accessible.• CAUTION: Electric Shock — never attempt to disassemble the DIRECTV® Receiver yourself; always take it to a qualiﬁed service person when repair is required. Opening or removing covers may expose dangerous voltage or other risks. Incorrect reassembly can cause shock when Receiver is subsequently used. Attempted self-repair may also void your warranty. Changes or modiﬁcations not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance (by the warranty or by the manufacturer) could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.• Do not drop your DIRECTV® Receiver and always move it with care.• Have your DIRECTV® Receiver professionally serviced (do not attempt to service it yourself).• Any changes or modiﬁcations in construction of this device which are not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.• If you move your DIRECTV® Receiver between locations at different temperatures, allow it to reach room temperature before you apply power to it.• Do not pick up or otherwise move your DIRECTV® Receiver while it is connected to the AC power supply. If you want to move your set-top box, ﬁrst disconnect it, then wait at least 30 seconds before continuing.• CAUTION: To reduce the risk of ﬁre, use only No. 26 AWG or better telecommunications line cord.• CAUTION: Replace remote control batteries with same or equivalent type. There is danger of explosion if batteries are incorrectly replaced.• “For your information: The identiﬁcation sticker for your Receiver is located behind the small door on its front panel. For your Mini Client, the sticker can be found on the bottom or base of the unit.”• The telecommunication network voltage used is the category number 3.Note to Satellite Dish Installer: This reminder is provided to call your attention to articles 810 and 820 of the 2005 National Electrical Code. Refer to article 810, in particular 810-1 and 810-15, for required grounding of the metal structure of the dish antenna. Refer also to the 810-2 which, by reference to article 820, requires that the satellite dish coaxial cable shield be connected to the grounding system of the building as close to the point of cable entry as practical.DRAFT

10DIRECTV® HD DVR RECEIVER USER GUIDEYOUR REMOTE CONTROLDIRECTV GENIE® REMOTE CONTROLIntroducing the DIRECTV Genie® Remote Control Most remote controls send an Infra Red (IR) signal to your Receiver, and must be pointed directly at the box in order to work properly. Now DIRECTV offers an improved remote control device, the Genie model series (RC71 and above, Black & White design), which uses Radio Frequency (RF) technology to control your entertainment experience. Please see back cover for the Genie Remote button layout and functions.Genie Remote Works with Previous DIRECTV Receivers, too The Genie Remote is “backwards compatible”, and comes factory-set to work in Infra Red (IR) mode. This means you can use it with your pre-Genie non-RF equipped HD Receivers and Client devices. You can also change the factory settings to take advantage of the beneﬁts of RF mode, which include improved command transmission speed, extended battery life (up to a year), reduced interference, and more. (see next page for RF Mode instructions). During the programming process, the Genie Remote Control becomes paired with the DIRECTV Receiver you want it to work with. However, you can pair it later with a different DIRECTV Receiver, if you wish. See the following page for programming instructions.NOTE: If you have upgraded to the latest DIRECTV Genie Receiver (HR44 and above) and Mini Client (C41, C41W and above), the Genie Remote is not required – you can still use the previous generation (RC6x series) DIRECTV Remote Controls to operate your devices.DRAFT

The Keep at Most option lets you decide how many episodes you want to keep: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 10 or All. If you select “All Episodes” for a show that appears multiple times in the Guide, it may use up disk space rapidly. The Keep Until option lets you keep a recording until you delete it or until the disk is full, in which case the DVR can delete it automatically if the disk ﬁlls up. A recording that is labeled “Keep Until I Delete” will never be deleted until you do it manually. If all of your recordings are labeled that way and the disk ﬁlls up, no new recordings will occur until you manually delete some of your “Keep Until I Delete” recordings. The Start and Stop options let you adjust the times of your recordings to ensure you don’t miss anything. Keep in mind that starting early and ending late on all of your recordings may create more recording conﬂicts than if you started and stopped on-time (according to the Program Guide schedule). If you ﬁnd a particular series runs habitually late or early, it is better to adjust that series using the program’s Info screen, rather than set the recording defaults, which would affect all of your DVR recordings.

Let’s say you have an HD DVR in your Den, an HD DVR in your Master Bedroom, and an HD Non-DVR in your Kitchen.

Allow DeletionAn HD DVR has the option to prevent another location from deleting programs that were recorded by that HD DVR.

75DIRECTV® WHOLE-HOME DVR SERVICECHAPTER 5 - EXTRAS & SPECIAL FEATURES6. Record Programs:If you’re in a room with an HD DVR, and you’ve authorized DIRECTV® Whole-Home DVR service, the program recording process will remain the same as before. If you’re in a room with an HD Non-DVR Receiver, once you authorize DIRECTV® Whole-Home DVR service you’ll be able to request programs to record. To record a show you’re currently watching or to record a highlighted program in the Guide, press the orange REC (record) button. A message displays onscreen asking you to select the HD DVR you would like to record on; then select either “Record Once” to record the current episode, “Record Series” to record the entire series or “Do Nothing” to cancel your request. NOTE: Using your remote, and pressing the REC button twice to record a series, or pressing it three times to cancel the request does not work on Non-DVR Receivers. You can also schedule a recording from a program’s Info screen. To record a program you’re currently watching or to record a highlighted program in the Guide, press the INFO button and select either “Record Once” or “Record Series”. If your recording (requested from a Non-DVR Receiver) conﬂicts with other recordings already scheduled on the target DVR, a message will display stating that your program cannot be recorded.TIP: Adding a second HD DVR to your DIRECTV® System doubles your recording capacity. Don’t worry about having to remember which DVR you recorded your shows on. Whole-Home DVR service keeps things simple by giving you a single, uniﬁed playlist of all your recordings on any connected TV.DRAFT

76DIRECTV® HD DVR RECEIVER USER GUIDEDIRECTV® WHOLE-HOME DVR SERVICE Recordings can be deleted from any connected Receiver that has been set up to Allow Deletion.

Watch Recorded Programs:By networking your Receivers, the recordings from all the HD DVRs in your household are combined into a “shared” Playlist. The shared Playlist is accessible by all networked Receivers, even if the Receiver is not a DVR. To access the Playlist, press the LIST button on the remote control, or press MENU, then select “Recordings”, then “Playlist”. Highlight a show and press SELECT to play. If you’ve already watched part of the show in another room, you can select “Resume” to pick up where you left off. You can use any of the DVR control buttons such as PAUSE, FFWD, ADVANCE, while watching your recorded show.You can limit access to programs with Parental Controls. See “Parental Controls” in Chapter 6 for details. Your Parental Control settings restrict access to both recorded and live programs. Parental controls must be set at each Receiver.To delete a program from your Playlist, use the arrow keys to highlight the desired show and press the RED button. You’ll then be asked to conﬁrm the deletion.NOTE: Only two locations can access a recorded program at the same time (the HD DVR on which the program was recorded and one other location). If a third location tries to playback a recording, a message will display explaining that the program is not available.DRAFT

For example, if Native mode is ON and a program is being broadcast in 480p, your High-Deﬁnition Receiver prompts the TV to show it in that same format. If the next program changes to 1080i, the Receiver tells the TV to change to that format. Native mode slows down the system’s response time to channel changes since the Receiver and TV must adjust the picture resolution at every channel change. Because of this, the default setting is OFF. When Native Mode is OFF, your Receiver will display the program at the highest resolution set on the “TV Resolutions” screen. Screen Format: When a program is broadcast in a format that does not exactly ﬁt your TV screen, your Receiver will automatically size the picture. Screen Format options include Original Format, Pillar Box (Widescreen 16:9 HDTVs only), Letterbox (Standard 4:3 TVs only), Stretch and Crop: If you’re watching a widescreen movie on a Standard 4:3 TV, you may want to choose “Letterbox” which places bars on the top and bottom of the screen. If your HDTV is 4:3 aspect ratio, you may want to “Crop” or cut off the content at the left and right side of the screen while preserving the proportion of the picture that remains. You can also “Stretch” the picture vertically or horizontally to ﬁll up the screen.Bar Color: Select the Bar Color option to set the color of the bars displayed when you view programming in Letterbox or Pillar Box modes.
