Service
If your receiver was not professionally installed, you will need to follow the guided setup screens before starting DIRECTV Service.
Once all the setup processes are complete, all that’s left to do is activate your DIRECTV Service. Before you make the call, be sure to:
Have on hand your service address, social security number and a valid major credit card.
Note your access card and receiver ID numbers. (You may have written them down earlier in this chapter.)
When you’re ready, just call 1-800-DIRECTV (1-800-347-3288) and pick the programming package that’s right for you and subscribe to
DVR service.
Simply follow the on-screen directions to complete your setup functions. If you’ve installed your satellite dish and system yourself, you’ll
be guided though various functions for optimizing your signal and setup — including positioning your dish and a system test. After these
setup procedures are complete, you’ll see a message on-screen that says, “Acquiring Satellite Info,” as the receiver gathers information
from the satellite for the on-screen program guide.
Next, you’ll be given the opportunity to program your remote to control other equipment such as your TV and/or DVD player. Just follow
the screen instructions and you’ll be ready to watch in no time!
