Safety Precautions
Warning: To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose this
equipment to rain or moisture.
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Warning: Any
unauthorized changes or modifications to this equipment void the user’s
authority to operate it.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a
Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits
are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference
in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate
radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio
or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment
off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one
or more of the following measures:
1. Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
2. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
3. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to
which the receiver is connected.
4. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Magnavox recommends you use only video cassette tapes that have the
mark. Other tapes may cause poor picture quality and excessive
deposits on the video heads that the warranty may not cover if damage
occurs.
This TV/VCR has a High Quality (HQ) system and is compatible with existing Video Home System (VHS) equipment.
Note to the Cable TV System Installer: This reminder calls the Cable
TV system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the National Electrical
Code, which provides guidelines for proper grounding – in particular, specifying that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of
the building, as close to the point of cable entry as possible.

Hooking Up the TV/VCR (cont’d) 7
• Do not watch TV while driving.
• Make sure the cigarette lighter jack is
free of ashes and other debris.
• Always unplug the car battery cord
from the cigarette lighter before you
unplug it from the TV/VCR.
• You must disconnect the car battery
cord from the TV/VCR before you can
use standard electrical (AC) power.
• If you use the TV/VCR with the vehicle’s engine off, recharge the vehicle’s
battery often. Unplug the car battery
cord from the cigarette lighter when
you finish using the TV/VCR.

battery cord, noise may appear on
the TV/VCR screen.

Helpful Hints
Mobile Connections
Usually, the supplied rod antenna provides adequate reception.
But when you want to watch TV outdoors or in a vehicle, try a
mobile antenna (not supplied) or an indoor dipole antenna (not
supplied) for better reception.
1
Connect an antenna to the ANT(enna) jack. If you do not
use the supplied rod antenna, refer to the instructions with your
other antenna to make a connection.
2
Make sure your vehicle has a 13.2-volt, negative ground
electrical system. Connect one end of the car battery
cord to the DC 13.2V jack on the back of the TV/VCR.
Then connect the other end of the car battery cord to the
cigarette lighter in your vehicle.
Use only the supplied car battery cord. Using another cord could
damage the TV/VCR. Make sure you push the car battery cord’s
plug completely into the cigarette lighter.

Fuse Replacement
If the TV/VCR does not have power when connected properly in
your vehicle, 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.)
