External Antenna

If you are in an area with weak TV signals, or inside a metal or concrete building, you might need an external antenna to improve reception.

Connect the antenna to the EXT. ANT. jack. If your antenna wire is 75-ohm coaxial cable, use an F-to- mini plug adapter to complete the connection. If you have 300-ohm wire, use a 300-to-75 ohm mini plug adapter. Both are available at your local RadioShack store.

Care

These suggestions will help you care for your LCD TV so you can enjoy it for years.

Keep the TV dry. If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately.

Handle the TV gently and carefully. Dropping it can damage the circuit boards and cases and can cause the TV to work improperly. Be particularly careful of the screen. Avoid putting the TV in your pocket or purse together with hard objects

(such as coins or keys).

Use and store the TV only in normal temperature environments.

Keep the TV away from dust and dirt.

Wipe the TV with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking new. Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to clean the TV.

Modifying or tampering with the TV’s internal components can cause a malfunction and might invalidate the TV’s warranty and void your FCC authorization to operate it.

Caution: This product contains mercury and must be recycled or disposed of properly.

Troubleshooting

Color too light or no color.

• Extend the antenna and set it at a different angle.

No picture and no sound.

Be sure the batteries are fresh and inserted correctly.

If you use an adapter, be sure it is connected correctly.

No picture and noisy sound.

• Adjust the antenna.

Picture, but no sound.

Adjust VOLUME.

Be sure an earphone is not connected.

Sound, but the picture is all white, dark, or blurred.

Adjust BRIGHT.

Be sure the batteries are fresh.

Picture is not clear (moves up or down, disappears periodically, becomes fuzzy or blurred, or is doubled), but the TV has sound.

Be sure the antenna is fully extended. Adjust the antenna’s angle and direction for the best reception.

Be sure the batteries are fresh.

Be sure the TV is away from appliances that might cause interference.

In locations with poor reception, it might be impossible to get a clear picture or any picture at all. Change the location.

If your TV is not operating as it should, take it to your local RadioShack store or call 1-800-THE-SHACK for assistance.

Power Cautions

Use only fresh batteries of the required size and type. Batteries can leak chemicals that damage your TV’s electronic parts.

Dispose of old batteries promptly and properly. Do not burn or bury them. Batteries can leak chemicals that may destroy electronic parts.

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

You must use a regulated Class 2 power source that supplies 6V DC and delivers at least 400 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.

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

FCC Wants You to Know
