BATTERIES
Your TV uses four AA batteries (not supplied).
For the best performance and longest life, we
recommend RadioShack alkaline batteries.
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. Lift up the stand then slide off the battery
compartment’s cover (on the back of the
TV) in the direction of the arrow and
remove it.
2. Insert four fresh batteries (place the
batteries on top of the ribbon for easy
battery removal) aligning the positive (+
++
+)
poles with the positive polarity symbols
(+
++
+) marked inside.
Caution: Installing batteries incorrectly
can damage the TV.
3. Replace the cover.
Note: The TV can operate with alkaline
batteries for about 4 hours. When the sound
level lowers or the picture becomes unstable,
replace the batteries.
Warning: Dispose of 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 optional AC adapter available
at your local RadioShack store.
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.
Note:
Internal batteries automatically
disconnect when you connect an adapter to
the
DC IN 6V
jack.
Cautions:
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.
