When passengers in your vehicle want to watch a video program, hook up the VCP by following the steps below. Do not start your vehicle until all connections are complete.

1

Make sure your vehicle has a 13.2-volt, negative ground electrical system. Unplug the AC power cords of the VCP and the TV.

2

Connect one end of the supplied car battery cord to the DC 13.2V jack on the back of the VCP.

3

Connect the other end of the car battery cord to the cigarette lighter jack in your vehicle.

4

Follow step 3 on page seven to connect the VCP to a TV.

5

Connect the TV to a DC power source. The TV must have an AC/DC jack.

Fuse Replacement (Car Battery Cord)

If the VCP does not have power when connected properly in your vehicle, you may need to replace the fuse in the car battery cord. Use only a 5-amp,250-volt, fast blow fuse, which is available at an electronics retailer.

1

To remove the old fuse, unscrew the red cap from the end of the cord. Place your fingers on the grooved part of the cap and turn the cap counter-clockwise.

2

When the cap is removed, the red cap and the silver tip will be loose. The fuse will be loose inside the end of the cord.

3

Remove the old fuse and insert a new fuse.

4

Replace the red cap and the silver tip. The fuse will tighten into place as you screw on the cap, turning the cap clockwise. (The end of the fuse will fit into the silver tip, which is in the center of the red cap when tightened.)

Helpful Hints

Do not watch TV while driving.

Use only the supplied car battery cord. Using another cord could damage the VCP or cause faulty operation.

Make sure the cigarette lighter jack is free of ashes and other debris.

Make sure you push the car battery cord’s plug completely into the cigarette lighter jack.

Always unplug the car battery cord from the cigarette lighter jack before you unplug it from the VCP.

You must disconnect the car battery cord from the VCP before you can use standard AC electrical power.

If the vehicle’s engine is off, there will not be enough electrical voltage to operate the VCP.

Unplug the car battery cord from the cigarette lighter jack when you have finished using the VCP.
