Page 11

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. This set is designed for use with negative ground system only.

•Use the supplied car cord only.

•When the TV/VCR is not in use, always disconnect it from the car cigarette lighter socket to avoid a battery drain.

•If the TV/VCR is to be directly connected to a 12V DC power source, for example, recrea- tional vehicle (RV) applications, make sure the power cord is connected after the ignition switch to avoid 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.

REPLACING THE FUSE IN THE CAR CORD PLUG

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.
