CAUTION
In winter and other dry seasons, touching of the antenna or terminals would lead to
discharging due to static electricity on the fingertip, thus causing wrong operation. In such
cases, Power off and on the unit.
About the small fluorescence tube When used at a lo w temperatures, there might be faint or reddish strips, which are not
failures. Normal operation can be resumed after temperature rise.
Low batteries would make it difficult to start the signal and cause faint pictures, which are
not failures and can be solved through battery replacement.

CAUTION
Before using it in a bathroom, make sure to close the battery box cover and jack cover.
Failures or electric shocks would be caused when the batter y box cover and the jack cove
are left open.
When an external antenna is used
When the picture is not clear even with a pulled out antenna in a poor reception envir onment
or in a building, use a separately purchased antenna adjuster connected with the external
antenna to obtain a stable picture.
① Connect the antenna adjuster to the external antenna cable.
② Open the jack cover.
CAUTION
It is not waterproof when the jack cover is left open.
Use drop-proof antenna cable of the terminal t ype (separately purchased), when it is used in
