PROPER CARE OF YOUR EQUIPMENT
• Always handle the DTVPal DVR carefully. Excessive shock and
vibration can damage the hard drive.
• Always turn the DTVPal DVR off, unplug it, and then let it sit idle
for at least 30 seconds before moving it.
• If the DTVPal DVR is cold to the touch, do not plug it in immedi-
ately. Let it sit unplugged at room temperature for at least 45
minutes before plugging it in.
• The use of accessories or attachments not recommended by the
DTVPal DVR manufacturer will void the Limited Warranty.
• Use an outlet that contains surge suppression or ground fault
protection. During an electrical storm or when the DTVPal DVR
is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug the
power cord from the wall outlet, and disconnect the lines
between the DTVPal DVR and the antenna. This will provide
additional protection against damage caused by lightning or
power line surges.
• In some TVs, the presence of fixed images for extended periods
of time may cause permanent imprints on the screen. Consult
your TV’s manufacturer and user manual to determine if this is
an issue for your TV.
