Get to Know Your Solarus Whole-Home Set-Top/DVR Box
Your Solarus STB/DVR Box supports all of Solarus’ TV services including HD,
Recording, Pay-Per-View, and Video on Demand.
To ensure optimum performance, we recommend your STB/DVR Box be handled
much in the same way as a computer.
• Position it in an open space to allow airflow around the STB/DVR Box.
• Do not place the STB/DVR Box in an enclosed entertainment unit or cabinet.
• Do not place the STB/DVR Box on a soft surface such as a rug, sofa, bed or
other similar surface.
• The STB/DVR Box should not be next to an external heat source that could
raise the temperature of the unit.
• Connection into a surge protector along with your other audio/video
equipment is highly recommended.
