TELEVISION OPERATION 
Switch On/Off 
AC Power Supply 
This unit operates on AC power. Plug the AC adapter into the AC outlet and insert the other end into the 
AC/DC Power In socket on the rear of the unit. To turn on the unit, press the POWER ON/OFF button on 
the unit (or press the Power key on the remote control). The power indicator will light up bright red. After 
several seconds, a picture will be displayed on the screen. 
To turn off the unit, press the POWER ON/OFF button on the unit again (or press the Power key on the 
remote control). 
When the power indicator light is a dim red, the unit is in stand-by mode. Press the CH+ or CH– key to 
turn on the unit from stand-by mode.  
If the unit will not be in use for a long time, make sure to turn the unit off completely by disconnecting the 
unit from the power source. 
DC Power Supply 
This unit can also operate on DC 12V power. Make sure the DC power source can supply a current over 
1.5A. If the unit is operated in a car, a car lighter socket can be used as the power source (make sure the 
DC voltage is 12V). Simply plug the DC car adapter into the car lighter socket, then insert the other end 
into the AC/DC Power In socket on the rear of the unit.   
Note:  1) To ensure safety, the power supply should be totally cut off when the unit is not in use. 2) 
Make sure the polarity is correct when connecting to a DC power source otherwise the unit will not 
work. 
Television Channel Selection 
It is not necessary to pre-store channels. Just connect an antenna (rod or CATV antenna) and switch on 
the unit. 
1.  Channel Selection with Channel Up/Down: 
Press the CH+ or CH– keys located on the unit or on the remote control. Press CH+ to select a higher 
channel; press CH– to select a lower channel. 
2.  Direct Channel Selection: 
When the unit is in TV mode, use the numeric keypad to input 2 digits. When the unit is in CATV mode, 
input 3 digits. Number input must be completed within 4 seconds. If the number you have entered is not 
within the range of available channels, the input is invalid.  
Example: To select Channel 9, press the digit 0, then the digit 9 on the keypad within 4 seconds of 
each other. To select Channel 66, press the digit 6 two times in succession within 4 seconds of each 
other. 
3.  Loop Key (Previous Channel Selection): 
Press the Loop key located on the remote control to switch from the current channel to the previous 
channel you have watched.  
Example: If you have switched from Channel 9 to Channel 66, press the Loop key to return to 
Channel 9. Press the Loop key again to return to Channel 66.
