Philips Magnavox 9MDPF20 - Manual (Page 10)

Fuse Replacement
If the TV/DVD does not have power when connected prop-
erly in your vehicle, replace the fuse in the car battery cord.
Use only a 6-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.)

Mobile Connections
Usually, the supplied rod antenna provides adequate recep-
tion. When you want to watch TV outdoors or in a vehicle,
try a mobile antenna (not supplied); or, try an indoor dipole
antenna (not supplied) for better reception.
1 Connect an antenna to the ANT(enna) jack as
shown at 1-C on page nine. 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
rear of the TV/DVD. Connect the other end of
the car battery cord to the cigarette lighter in
your vehicle.
Use only the supplied car battery cord. Using anoth-
er cord could damage the TV/DVD. Make sure you
push the car battery cord’s plug completely into the
cigarette lighter.
Wind the unused AC power cord as shown at
right.
• Do not watch TV while driving.
Not only is it unsafe, but some states
have laws and fines against such
forms of distracted driving.
• Make sure the cigarette lighter is free
of ashes and other debris.
• Always unplug the car battery cord
from the cigarette lighter before you
unplug it from the TV/DVD.
• You must disconnect the car battery
cord from the TV/DVD before you can
use standard electrical (AC) power.
• If you use the TV/DVD with the vehi-
cle’s engine off, recharge the vehicle’s
battery often. Unplug the car battery
cord from the cigarette lighter when
you finish using the TV/DVD.
• When you use the TV/DVD with a car
battery cord, noise may appear on the
TV/DVD screen.
• Do not use this TV/DVD in high tem-
perature conditions. Details are on
page 49.
• To avoid possible theft, do not leave
this TV/DVD in a car.
• Do not leave the TV/DVD in direct
sunlight for long periods. Sunlight may
deform the cabinet.
