(160-3002)                 Power                      Faxback Doc. # 59051

Power Sources

You can power your TV/radio/cassette from three power sources:

  Internal battery power (using ten D batteries, not included).

  Standard AC power (using the supplied AD adapter).

  Vehicle battery power (using the supplied DC power cord).

Using Internal Battery Power

You can power the TV from ten D batteries.  We recommend RadioShack 
alkaline batteries.

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

           Do not mix old and new batteries or different types of 
           batteries.

Follow these steps to install batteries.

1.  Carefully turn the TV upside-down and gently push the battery 
    compartment cover in the direction of the arrow marked on the cover.  
    Then lift off the cover.

2.  Install ten D batteries in the battery compartment as indicated by the 
    polarity symbols (+ and -) marked inside.

    CAUTION:  Installing the batteries with incorrect polarity can damage 
              your TV.  

3.  Replace the cover.

Notes:  When the TV picture shrinks or the cassette player's playback 
        slows, replace the batteries. 

        Battery life can vary greatly, depending on how you use your
        TV/radio/cassette.

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

           Dispose of old batteries promptly and properly. 

           If you do not plan to use your TV/radio/cassette for a month or 
           more, or if you plan to use only AC or DC power, remove the 
           batteries. 

Using AC Power

To use AC power, connect the supplied AC adapter to the DC 12-15V jack on 
the back of TV/radio/cassette.  Then plug the other end into a standard AC 
outlet.  When you connect the AC adapter, the batteries automatically 
disconnect.

CAUTIONS:  The supplied AC adapter supplies 12 volts DC, delivers 1300 
           milliamps, and has a center positive plug which properly fits 
           the TV/radio/cassette's DC 12-15V jack.  Using an adapter that 
           does not meet these specifications could damage the TV/radio/ 
           cassette or the adapter.

           Always unplug the AC adapter from the AC outlet before you 
           unplug it from the TV/radio/cassette.

Using Vehicle Battery Power

Follow these steps to power the TV/radio/cassette from your vehicle's 
cigarette lighter socket using the supplied DC power cord.

1.  Make sure the supplied DC power cord's knurled ring is screwed firmly
    onto its plug.

2.  Plug the small end of the supplied DC power cord into the DC 12-15V
    jack on the back of the TV/radio/cassette.

    CAUTIONS: The supplied DC power cord supplies 12 volts DC, delivers
              1300 milliamps, and has a center positive plug that properly
              fits the TV/radio/cassette's DC 12-15V jack.  Using a power
              cord that does not meet these specifications could damage
              the TV/radio/cassette or the power cord.

              Always unplug the DC power cord from the cigarette lighter
              socket before you unplug it from the TV/radio/cassette.

3.  Plug the large end of the DC power cord into the cigarette lighter
    socket. When you connect the DC power cord the batteries automatically
    disconnect.

Note:  If the TV/radio/cassette stops working, check the fuse in the DC 
       power cord (see "Changing the Fuse" in Faxback Doc. # 59054).
