Replace the cover. Notes Do not mix different types of batteries together or old batteries with fresh ones. Remove and replace weak batteries. Weak batteries can leak and damage your controller. Dispose of batteries properly; never throw them into a fire. Point your remote at the receiver on the center of the front of the TV/VCR. Make sure the receiver is not blocked. The remote control can operate up to 30 feet away from the TV/VCR, if you are directly facing the front of the TV/VCR. Operating distance diminishes as you move to the sides of the TV/VCR. To use DC power By using the DC car cord supplied with the TV/VCR, you can operate this TV/VCR from a cigarette lighter socket in any car that utilizes a negative ground system. The fused 12V DC car cord has been designed to power the set from the external DC power (12 volt negative ground) through the TV/VCR DC Input jack. If the fuse in the car cord plug blows, replace it with a new 8 A fuse (Fast Blow Type) as shown below. Unscrew the tip of the plug to remove. Notes Always turn off TV/VCR first before switch ON or OFF the ignition of car engine. Make sure that the negative terminal of the battery is grounded. When the TV/VCR is not in use, always disconnect it from the car cigarette lighter socket to avoid a battery drain. Do not operate the TV/VCR if the car battery is weak. Peak current from the car alternator could blow the DC fuse. Check the battery's charge level regularly when the TV/VCR is used in a vehicle. 8 Chapter 1 : Overview of Your Equipment CHAPTER 2 Connecting an Antenna or Cable to Your TV/VCR Your TV/VCR will provide you with the best performance if you connect it to an external antenna or cable system. Follow the directions below make this connection. Please note that you will normally only have to make one of the connections shown below, not all of them. All connections will be made to the antenna terminal on the back of your TV/VCR. The antenna terminal is a silver metal post partially surrounded by two plastic tabs. For help in locating the antenna terminal, see "Your TV/VCR's Back Panel" on page 5. There is no antenna provided with your TV/VCR. Connecting an Antenna If your antenna ends in a single coaxial lead, simply press or screw the cable onto the antenna terminal on the back of your TV/VCR. If your antenna ends in a pair of 300 ohm twin leads, you must use a 300-ohm/75-ohm adaptor. (An adaptor is included with your TV/VCR.) Place the leads underneath the screws on the adaptor, tighten the screws, then press the adaptor onto the antenna terminal on the back of the TV/VCR. Chapter 2 : Connecting an Antenna or Cable to Your TV/VCR 9 Antennas with two sets of leads You might have two sets of leads from your antenna system, especially if you have one antenna for VHF signals and one antenna for UHF signals. If your antenna system has both a coaxial lead and twin 300-ohm leads, you must obtain a combiner (available at your local electronics store). Press or screw the coaxial lead onto the combiner; place the twin leads underneath the screws on the combiner and tighten the screws. Press the cable from combiner onto the antenna terminal on the back of the TV/VCR. If your antenna system has two sets of twin 300-ohm leads, you must obtain a combiner (available at your local electronics store). Place one set of twin leads underneath the screws on the combiner and tighten the screws. Do the same with the other set of twin leads. Press the cable from the combiner onto the antenna terminal on the back of your TV/VCR. 10 Chapter 2 : Connecting an Antenna or Cable to Your TV/VCR Connecting a Cable System If your cable set-up is not described below, please contact your cable company for more information. If your cable system does not require the use of a cable box, simply press or screw the incoming cable onto the antenna terminal on the back your TV. If your cable system requires you to use a converter box for all channels, connect the incoming cable to the IN terminal on the converter box. Connect another cable between the OUT terminal on the converter box and the antenna terminal on the TV. You will need to keep your TV tuned to channel 3 or 4 and change channels using the converter box. Chapter 2 : Connecting an Antenna or Cable to Your TV/VCR 11 If your cable system only requires you to use a converter box for some channels (i. e. pay-TV channels), follow these steps: Find the primary incoming coaxial cable. Plug this cable into a splitter (available at your local electronics store). Connect one coaxial cable between one OUT terminal on the splitter and the IN terminal on the converter box. Connect another coaxial cable between the other OUT terminal on the splitter and the A-IN terminal on an A/B switch (available at your local electronics store.) Connect a third coaxial cable between the OUT terminal on the converter box and the B-IN terminal on the A/B switch. Finally, connect a coaxial cable between the OUT terminal on the A/B switch and the antenna terminal on the back of your TV/VCR. When the A/B switch is in the A position, you can change channels on the TV/VCR; when the A/B switch is in the B position, you, need to change channels on the converter box (and your TV should be tuned to channel 3 or 4) Connecting Other Pieces of Equipment You may want to connect a VCR, laser disc player, satellite receiver, or another type of equipment to your TV/VCR. We recommend that you follow the instructions included with the piece of equipment you wish to connect. If you connect other pieces of equipment to your TV/VCR using the audio/video jacks on the front panel, you will need to use the TV/LINE button on the remote control to view the signal coming through these jacks. See page 41 for more information. Safety Notes If you plan on being away from your home for an extended period of time, or if a thunderstorm is approaching, you should unplug your television, and you may wish to disconnect your TV from a rooftop or satellite antenna. You do not need to disconnect your TV from a cable system. 12 Chapter 2 : Connecting an Antenna or Cable to Your TV/VCR CHAPTER 3 Operating Your TV Once you have connected your TV/VCR to an antenna or cable system, plugged the TV in, and put batteries in the remote, you are ready to use the TV.
