Batteries

Your TV requires four AA batteries (not supplied).  For the best 
performance and longest life, we recommend alkaline batteries, available 
at your local RadioShack store.

CAUTIONS:  Use only fresh batteries of the required size and recommended
           type.

           Do not mix old and new batteries, different types of batteries
           (standard, alkaline, or rechargeable) or rechargeable batteries
           of different capacities.

Follow these steps to install the batteries.

1.  Gently press down on the battery compartment cover and slide it in the
    direction of the arrow to remove it.

2.  Insert the batteries into the compartment (three above and one below)
    as indicated by the polarity symbols (+ and -) marked inside.

3.  Replace the cover.

Notes: The TV can operate for about 3.5 hours with alkaline batteries.
       When the sound level lowers or the picture becomes unstable,
       replace the batteries.

       The TV's internal batteries automatically disconnect when you
       connect an adapter.

WARNING: Dispose or old batteries promptly and properly.  Do not bury or
         burn them.

CAUTION: Always remove old or weak batteries. Batteries can leak chemicals
         that can destroy electronic parts.

AC Power

You can power the TV from a standard AC outlet using an adapter (not 
supplied).

CAUTIONS: You must use a Class 2 power source that supplies 6V DC and
          delivers at least 550 mA. Its center tip must be set to positive
          and its plug must fit the TV's DC IN 6V jack.  Using an adapter
          that does not meet these specifications could damage the TV or
          the adapter.

          Always connect the AC adapter to the TV before you connect it to
          AC power.  When you finish, disconnect the adapter from AC power
          before you disconnect it from the TV.

Set the adapter's voltage switch to 6V.  Plug the adapter's 4.0 mm outer 
diameter/1.7 mm inner diameter barrel plug into the TV's DC IN 6V jack.  
Then plug the other end of the adapter into a standard AC outlet.

Notes:  Do not leave the adapter plugged into the AC outlet or connected
        to the TV when you are not using the TV.

        Always unplug the adapter from the AC outlet first.

        The adapter might become warm after extended periods of use.

Using Vehicle Battery Power

You can use an optional DC adapter to power the TV from a vehicle's 
cigarette-lighter socket if the vehicle has a 12-volt DC, negative ground 
electrical system.  Your local RadioShack store sells a variety of 
adapters.

CAUTIONS: You must use a power source that supplies 6V DC and delivers at
          least 550 mA.  Its center tip must be set to positive and its
          plug must fit the TV's DC IN 6V jack. Using an adapter that does
          not meet these specifications could damage the TV or the adapter

          Always connect the DC adapter to the TV before you connect it to
          the power source.  When you finish, disconnect the adapter from
          the power source before you disconnect it from the TV.

1.  Set the adapter's voltage switch to 6V.

2.  Attach the adapter's 4 mm outer diameter/1.7 mm inner diameter barrel
    plug, aligning + with TIP, and plug it into the TV's DC IN 6V jack.

3.  Unplug the vehicle's cigarette-lighter and plug the large end of the
    DC adapter cord into the cigarette-lighter socket.

CAUTIONS:  Do not leave the adapter plugged into the cigarette-lighter
           socket or connected to the TV when you are not using the TV.

           Always disconnect the adapter from the cigarette-lighter socket
           first.

Note:  If the TV does not operate properly when you use DC power, be sure
       the cigarette-lighter socket is clean and that the adapter's plug
       is properly connected to the socket.

Connections

Using the TV as a Monitor

You can play back the signal from an audio/video component connected to 
your TV using a special cable (not supplied), available through your local 
RadioShack store (RSU 162324).

Connect the cable's yellow plug to the component's video output jack and 
its white plug to the component's audio output jack. Then plug the cable's 
sub-mini plug into the TV's AUDIO/VIDEO jack.
