Cautions:
• The supplied DC adapter supplies at least
13.2 volts and delivers at least 5 amps of
DC automotive power. Its center tip must
be set to positive and its plug must fit the
Model 36’s
DC13.2V jack. Using an adapter
that does not meet these specifications
could damage the Model 36 or the adapter.
• Do not operate your Model 36 while driving.
• Do not mount the Model 36 where it could
damage or interfere with the operation of
any passive restraint safety device (an air-
bag or seat belt).
• The supplied DC adapter was designed
specifically for your Model 36. Use only the
supplied DC adapter.
• Make sure the ring on the tip of the ciga-
rette-lighter socket is securely screwed
in before you insert it into the vehicle’s
cigarette-lighter socket.
• Be sure the cigarette-lighter socket is free
of ashes and other debris.
• Always plug the DC adapter into the Model
36 before you plug it into the cigarette-
lighter socket. Always unplug it from the
cigarette-lighter socket before you unplug it
from the Model 36.
• If you use the Model 36 with the vehicle’s
engine turned off, you can protect the vehi-
cle’s battery from completely discharging
by running the engine for a few minutes.
Unplug the DC adapter as soon as you fin-
ish using the Model 36.
Notes:
• Connecting the DC adapter to the Model
36’s DC13.2V jack automatically discon-
nects the Model 36’s AC power circuits. To
use the Model 36 with AC power, discon-
nect the DC adapter from the Model 36.
• The fuse supplied with the DC adapter
helps protect your vehicle’s electrical sys-
tem and the Model 36. For information
about replacing the fuse, see “Replacing
the DC Adapter’s Fuse” on Page 39.
CONNECTING AN OPTIONAL
EARPHONE
To view a video tape or TV program without dis-
turbing others, plug an earphone with a
1 /
8
-inch
(3.5-mm) plug (not supplied) into the Model 36’s
EARPHONE jack. This mutes the Model 36’s
speaker. Your local RadioShack store sells a
wide selection of earphones.
Listening Safely
To protect your hearing, follow these guidelines
when you use an earphone.
• Set the volume to the lowest setting before
you begin listening. After you begin listen-
ing, adjust the volume to a comfortable
level.
• Do not listen at extremely high volume lev-
els. Extended high-volume listening can
lead to permanent hearing loss.
• Once you set the volume, do not increase
it. Over time, your ears adapt to the volume
level, so a volume level that does not cause
discomfort might still damage your hearing.
