Welcome!
Congratulations on your purchase of the Personal TV remote control!
This remote will help you control the main functions of your
DISHPlayer unit as well as simplify the use of the Personal TV service.
To make full use of the Personal TV remote control, subscribe to
Personal TV by contacting the Dish Network™ service center at
1-800-333-DISH (3474). For Personal TV features and operation, see
“Personal TV Service” on page 6. For more information about the use
of your Personal TV remote control, see the User Guide that came with
your DISHPlayer receiver or select Help from TV Home.
You can also program your Personal TV remote control to control most
televisions and video cassette recorders. This is very useful, as it
allows you to adjust the volume of your television, turn your television
on and off, switch television inputs, and control your VCR. To set up
the Personal TV remote control to operate your television and VCR,
see “Programming the Remote Control” on page 28.
Be aware that when you use your new Personal TV remote
control, the original remote control that came with your
DISHPlayer will operate slightly different. The original
remote can be identified by looking on the back. The number
“123477447” is written in bold lettering on the back of the remote. See
page 25 for more information.
