IMPORTANT: Be sure not to place your
DIRECTV nomad near anything WET or HOT!
TIP: We highly recommend plugging the DIRECTV nomad into a surge
protector to prevent damage from fluctuations in your power supply.
• Ensure proper ventilation — the DIRECTV nomad must be left uncovered to allow proper airflow
to the unit. Blocking the airflow to the unit could impair performance or damage your device and
other components.
• Do not stack electronic components or other objects on top of the DIRECTV nomad. Also, do not
stack the device 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.
• Never insert objects of any kind into any openings in the DIRECTV nomad.
• Place it on a flat, hard surface — do not operate the DIRECTV nomad on a carpet or other padded surface.
• Always unplug your DIRECTV nomad before moving it.
• Always unplug the DIRECTV nomad, TV, and other equipment before you connect or disconnect any cables.
• The only way to disconnect the DIRECTV nomad from the power supply is to remove the power cord. The
DIRECTV device unit must therefore be installed next to the power point, which must be easily accessible.
• CAUTION: Electric Shock — never attempt to disassemble the DIRECTV nomad yourself; always
take it to a qualified service person when repair is required. Opening or removing covers may
expose dangerous voltage or other risks, and 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 nomad and always move it with care.
• Have your DIRECTV nomad 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 nomad 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 nomad while it is connected to the AC power supply.
If you want to move your device, first disconnect it, then wait at least 30 seconds before continuing.
• For your information: The identification sticker can be located on the bottom of your device.
• The telecommunication network voltage used is the category number 3.
CAUTION: Avoid moisture to reduce the risk of fire or electric shock. The DIRECTV
®
nomad
™
should not be used near water
(for example, kitchen sink, bathtub, pool, damp basement). Also, never spill liquid on the receiver, and do not place vases
or other vessels containing liquid on top of it.
