Introduction
Power sources
Use the AC polarized line cord provided for operation on AC. Insert the AC cord
plug into a standard 120V 60Hz polarized AC outlet.
Notes:
• Never connect the AC line cord plug to anything other than the specified voltage
(120V 60Hz). Use the attached power cord only.
• If the polarized AC cord does not fit into a nonpolarized AC outlet, do not
attempt to file or cut the blade. It is the user's responsibility to have an
electrician replace the obsolete outlet.
• If you cause a static discharge when touching the unit, and the unit fails to
function, simply unplug the unit from the AC outlet, wait a few minutes, and
plug it back in. The unit should return to normal operation.
• If the AC cord plug is plugged in for the first time, wait for about 5 seconds
before pressing the POWER button.
By using the DC car cord supplied with the TV/DVD, you can operate this TV/DVD 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/DVD DC input jack.
Connect the smaller plug on the end of the cord to the DC input jack on the rear of the TV/DVD, then insert the other
end of the car cord into the cigarette lighter socket of your car. Make sure that the cord makes a firm connection. It may
be necessary to try several insertions, rotating the plug for proper electrical connection.

Notes: • ALWAYS TURN OFF TV/DVD FIRST BEFORE SWITCH ON OR OFF THE IGNITION OF CAR ENGINE.
•Make sure that the negative terminal of the battery is grounded.
This set is designed for use with negative ground system only.
•Use the supplied car cord only.
• When the TV/DVD is not in use, always disconnect it from the car cigarette lighter socket to avoid a battery drain.
•If the TV/DVD is to be directly connected to a 12V DC power source, for example, recreational vehicle (RV)
applications, make sure the power cord is connected after the ignition switch to avoid battery drain.
• Do not operate the TV/DVD 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/DVD is used in a vehicle.
If the fuse in the car battery 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.
