MAJOR APPLIANCES & ACCESSORIES
Television Satellite Dish Control (Optional)
The RV may be equipped with a TV Satellite Dish control system (Figure 4-8) to permit access to satellite television. If
your motor home is equipped with an optional satellite dish it is capable of receiving High Definition (HD) satellite
signal from Dish Network. However, you must subscribe to HD service and install
a HD receiver. Factory installed satellite dishes must have a HD receiver in order
to obtain a clear picture. Your satellite dish will not receive High Definition
programming from Direct TV; however, it is capable of receiving standard
definition programming
from Direct TV's Satellite 101.
Follow the directions in the Owner's Manual for this dish-control mechanism to
obtain the best orientation of the satellite dish for desired television reception.
Remember, that any additional movement of the motor home after the satellite
dish control has been set may possibly cause degradation or loss of satellite-
television reception. In this case, please re-adjust the satellite dish to re-align

therefore, the motor home must either be plugged into an external
source of AC power or using the on-board power from the generator.
TV's and option DVD player will operate for a period of time off the
inverter. But batteries will need to be charged when RV power drops
below 10.5 volts.

switch, volume "up/down" control, channel "up/down" selector, and menu "up/down" selector—these functions are
found both on the television set itself and on the accompanying remote that comes with the television set.
