APPENDIX 2: CONNECTIONS TO TV & EQUIPMENT

CONNECTIONS FOR AUXILIARY EQUIPMENT

If you upgrade your TV, get a new DIRECTV
burner, or VCR, you have various options for connecting your equipment. All of the video and audio outputs on your receiver offer good
quality. Pick a video and audio output from the following lists based on the connectors your receiver and TV support; they are listed in
order, with the highest quality options at the top of each list. Not all connectors are available on all receivers and TV models.
NOTE:
Not all cables come with your digital satellite receiver; you may need to purchase additional cables depending on your setup.
HDMI cables are available from DIRECTV at a nominal charge. Contact DIRECTV customer service for more information.
Never connect an IN to an IN or an OUT to an OUT. All A/V jacks and inputs are color-coded. Always match the color of the plug to
the same color of the jack.
To obtain the best picture quality, make sure the receiver is connected directly to the TV.
Due to restrictions imposed by copyright holders, certain programming may include content protection measures that may
restrict viewing or recording with certain consumer electronics equipment attached to the receiver. Please contact the
manufacturer of such equipment for additional information.
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.
WARNING: Do not connect your receiver (or any other equipment, such as a TV or VCR) to the AC power supply until you have
properly connected all the other cables.
