• Do not watch TV while driving.
• Use only the supplied car battery

cord. Using another cord could dam-
age the VCP or cause faulty opera-
tion.

• 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 ciga-
rette 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.

Helpful Hints

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.)
