DirecTV HR34 User Manual page 2

When you see the ENERGY STAR label on your set-top box, it means that your set-top box is ENERGY STAR
qualified, giving you the benefit of saving energy and helping our environment.
However, ENERGY STAR labeled HD DVR set-top boxes qualify for ENERGY STAR only when configured
with the DIRECTV Whole-Home DVR service. All other ENERGY STAR labeled set-top boxes, when used in
conjunction with a DIRECTV subscription, meet ENERGY STAR criteria without requiring the consumer to take
any additional steps.
