[. . . ] When connecting the BMC, make sure all coaxial connections are "finger-tight"--secure, but not so tight they cannot be undone with your fingers. You do not need any special tools to disconnect the BMC, although you may need a wrench to loosen any tight connections. Use only the power cord supplied with the BMC and use that cord only for the BMC. If power is removed, or a power outage occurs, it will take several minutes after power is restored for the unit to resume normal operations. Ventilation Requirements Allow adequate ventilation and airflow around the BMC to prevent overheating. Keep away from other heat-generating devices.

Refer to the documentation that came with your TV or audio device for specific information on what the device supports. The BMC9022D includes an optional Media Center Extension device (Moxi Mate) to control a second TV in the home. If you use both the BMC9022D and the Moxi Mate, follow the steps below to connect the BMC9022D to the main TV, and refer to the Moxi Mate Hardware Manual for the Moxi Mate installation instructions. Before you begin, make sure both the TV and the BMC are turned off and all connections are unplugged. Position the BMC in a well-ventilated open area near the TV and/or audio receiver. Attach one end of the coaxial cable to the wall port and the other end to the Cable In port of the BMC.
