WHO IS COVERED?
You must have proof of purchase to receive warranty service.
A sales receipt or other document showing that you purchased
the product is considered proof of purchase.
WHAT IS COVERED?
Warranty coverage begins the day you buy your product. For
90 days from the date of purchase, the Digital Satellite Receiver
will be replaced with a new, repaired, renewed, or comparable
product (whichever is deemed necessary) if it becomes defec-
tive or inoperative. This exchange is done at no charge to you.
From 91 days to one year from the date of purchase, you must pay
a nominal fee for a new or renewed product. This exchange
offer ends one year after the date of purchase.
All products, including replacement products, are covered only
for the original warranty period. When the warranty on the
original product expires, the warranty on the replacement
product also expires.
WHAT IS EXCLUDED?
Your warranty does not cover:
• labor charges for installation or setup of the product.
• installation, performance of, or repair of audio/video cabling,
telephone line, or accessory attachments used in accessory
ports outside of the product.
• product replacement because of misuse, accident, lightning
damage, unauthorized repair, or other cause not within the
control of Philips.
• incidental or consequential damages resulting from the prod-
uct. (Some states do not allow the exclusion of incidental or
consequential damages, so the above exclusion may not apply
to you.)
• reception transmission problems caused by signal conditions,
telephone line, or cable or antenna systems outside the unit.
• a product that requires modification or adaptation to enable
it to operate in any country other than the country for
which it was designed, manufactured, approved and/or
authorized, or repair of products damaged by these
modifications.
• a product used for commercial or institutional purposes.
• DIRECTV service is separate and distinct from this product
(hardware) warranty.
WHERE IS EXCHANGE AVAILABLE?
You may exchange the product in all countries where the prod-
uct is officially distributed by Philips. In countries where Philips
does not distribute the product, the local Philips service organi-
zation will attempt to provide a replacement product (although
there may be a delay if the appropriate product is not readily
available).
MAKE SURE YOU KEEP...
Please keep your sales receipt or other document showing
proof of purchase. Attach it to this owner’s manual and keep

case you need to return your product.
