Rosen G8 Owner’s Manual

I HAVE NO PICTURE AND NO SOUND - WHAT’S WRONG?

The system has low- and high-voltage and temperature protection circuits. If the voltage or temperature goes beyond the limits, the system shuts off. The power wire or power harness may have been disconnected, or the fuse may have failed. Contact your Rosen authorized dealer to determine if this is the case.

Note: The system voltage range is 11-16VDC operating voltage. The system operating temperature is 0o to 60o Celsius. Use of the system beyond the safe operating ranges listed can cause temporary or permanent damage to the unit - such damage may not be covered by manufacturer’s warranty.

I HAVE A PICTURE, BUT NO SOUND OR DISTORTED SOUND. WHY?

Check the MUTE button. Check the volume on the radio, and make sure the radio is tuned to the right frequency - try tuning the FMM and the radio to a new frequency. Check that the headphones have a direct “line of sight” to the infrared transmitter below the screen. Replace headphone batteries, if needed. Check the DVD Setup Menu

-the Audio Output setting must be set to “ANALOG”, the Speaker Downmix setting to “STEREO”, and the Dynamic Range to “FULL”. If using a CD you have made yourself, make sure you did not set the recording level too high. Make sure you to check both CH A and CH B if you are using AC3072 two-channel headphones.

WHY DO I GET NO RESPONSE WHEN I PRESS THE REMOTE BUTTONS?

Check the battery in the remote control.

If you press a DVD function button when that function is not allowed by the disc, there will be no response. An example would be pressing pause during a DVD disc menu that does not allow pausing. This varies by DVD disc.

THE DOME LIGHT WENT OUT - WHY?

The dome light has a 5-minute timer to prevent accidental battery drain.

I HAVE BLACK BARS ON THE TOP AND BOTTOM OF MY SCREEN WITH A WIDESCREEN DVD - HOW DO I GET RID OF THEM?

See page 18.

WHY DOESN’T THE STOP/EJECT BUTTON EJECT THE DISC RIGHT AWAY?

While a disc is playing, this button acts as a STOP button. To eject a disc while it is playing, press the STOP/EJECT button twice, with the presses about 1 second apart. The Eject button on the remote control always ejects the disc immediately.

THE DISC WILL NOT EJECT AT ALL - WHAT DO I DO?

Using a paper clip, press the reset button (see page 7 for its location).
