Features
Your portable RCA 2.7-Inch LCD TV fits in
the palm of your hand. For such a small TV,
it is packed with great features:
Three Power Options — lets you power the
TV using internal batteries (not supplied) or
an optional AC or DC adapter.
2.7-Inch Ti-Super Twisted Nematic
Display — provides better contrast than
regular Super Twisted Nematic Displays,
makes the TV more compact, and uses less
power than other LCD TVs.
Fluorescent Backlight — illuminates the
screen so you can watch the TV in the dark or
in low-light conditions.
Built-in Telescoping Rod Antenna —
provides adequate reception in most
metropolitan areas.
Automatic Electronic Tuning System —
scans the VHF or UHF band and locks on to
active channels.
Important: An external antenna jack is not
available on this TV. Do not attempt to
connect an external antenna.
Earphone Jack — lets you enjoy private
listening with an optional earphone.

Cautions:
3. Press
TUNING
to tune to a
different channel. The tuning line (green
for UHF, red for VHF) on the screen
aligns with the channel number shown at
the top (VHF) or bottom (UHF) of the
screen.
You must use
a
power
source that supplies 6V DC
and delivers at least 550
mA. Its center tip must be
!
set to positive and its plug must fit the
TV's DC IN 6V jack. Using an adapter
that does not meet these specifications
could damage the TV or the adapter.
4. To adjust the volume, rotate VOLUME
located on the right side of the TV.
5. To adjust the picture to the desired
brightness, rotate BRIGHT located on the
right side of the TV. The brightness also
changes with the screen’s angle.
• Always connect the DC adapter to the
TV before you connect it to the power
source. When you finish, disconnect the
adapter from the power source before
you disconnect it from the TV.
Notes:
• In low temperatures, the TV screen takes
a few seconds to light or it is slightly red
in color. This is not a malfunction.
Normal operation resumes after a short
while.
• If reception is poor, adjust the length or
angle, and direction of the telescoping
rod antenna. If inside a metal or concrete
building, moving closer to a window
might improve reception.
1. Set the adapter’s voltage switch to 6V.
2. Attach the adapter’s 4 mm outer
diameter/1.7 mm inner diameter barrel
plug, aligning + with TIP, and plug it
into the TV’s DC IN 6V jack.
3. Unplug the vehicle’s cigarette lighter and
plug the large end of the DC adapter
cord into the cigarette-lighter socket.
• If desired, fold out the stand on the back
of the TV and lean the TV on a flat
surface.
Cautions:
• Do not leave the adapter plugged into
the cigarette-lighter socket or connected
to the TV when you are not using the TV.
• Always disconnect the adapter from the
cigarette-lighter socket first.
USING AN EARPHONE
For private listening, you can connect an
1
optional earphone with a /8-inch plug to the
TV’s PHONE jack. This automatically mutes
the built-in speaker.
Notes:
• If the TV does not operate properly when
you use DC power, be sure the cigarette-
lighter socket is clean and that the
adapter’s plug is properly connected to
the socket.
• Internal batteries automatically
disconnect when you connect an adapter
to the DC IN 6V jack.
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 listening, adjust the volume to a
comfortable level.
• Do not listen at extremely high volume
levels. 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.
Using Your TV
1. Extend the telescoping rod antenna.
2. Set UHF/VHF/OFF to VHF or UHF. The
TV starts scanning and stops at the next
active channel in the selected band.

TRAFFIC SAFETY
by a limited warranty from RadioShack. If
your TV is not operating as it should, take it
to your local RadioShack store or call 1-800-
THE-SHACK for assistance.
Do not wear an earphone while operating a
motor vehicle or riding a bicycle. This can
create a traffic hazard and could be illegal in
some areas.
Care
Even though some earphones let you hear
some outside sounds when listening at
normal volume levels, they still can present a
traffic hazard.
Your RCA 2.7-Inch LCD TV is an example of
superior design and craftsmanship. These
suggestions will help you care for it so you can
enjoy it for years.
Troubleshooting
• Keep the TV dry. If it gets wet, wipe it
dry immediately.
Color too light or no color.
• Use only fresh batteries of the
recommended size and type. Always
remove old or weak batteries. Batteries
can leak chemicals that destroy
electronic circuits.
• Extend the antenna and adjust its angle
and direction.
No Picture and No Sound.
• Be sure the batteries are fresh and
inserted correctly.
• If you use an adapter, be sure it is
correctly connected.
• Handle the TV gently and carefully.
Dropping it can damage the circuit
boards and cases and can cause the TV to
work improperly. Be particularly careful
of the screen. Avoid putting the TV in
your pocket or purse together with hard
objects (coins or keys).
No picture and fuzzy sound.
• Adjust the antenna.
• Use and store the TV only in normal
temperature environments.
Picture, but no sound.
• Adjust VOLUME.
• Be sure you disconnected the earphone.
• Keep the TV away from dust and dirt.
• Wipe the TV with a damp cloth
occasionally to keep it looking new. Do
not use harsh chemicals, cleaning
solvents, or strong detergents to clean
the TV.
Sound, but the picture is all white, dark, or
blurred.
• Adjust BRIGHT.
• Be sure the batteries are fresh.
Modifying or tampering with the TV’s internal
components can cause a malfunction and
might invalidate the TV’s warranty and void
your FCC authorization to operate it. If the
TV is not performing as it should, take it to
your local RadioShack store for assistance.
Picture is not clear (moves up or down,
disappears periodically, becomes fuzzy or blurred
or is doubled), but the TV has sound.
• Be sure the antenna is fully extended.
Adjust the antenna’s angle and direction
for the best reception.
• Be sure the batteries are fresh.
• Be sure the TV is away from appliances
that might cause interference.
• In locations with poor reception, it might
be impossible to get a clear picture or
any picture at all. Move the TV to a
different location.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC
Rules. Operation of this device is subject to
the following two conditions:
1. The TV may not cause harmful
interference.
2. The TV must accept any interference
received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.
This TV has been manufactured to the
specifications of RadioShack and is covered
