HELPFUL HINTS

Your Memorex Portavision VHF/UHF Television with AM/FM Radio is an example
of superior design and craftsmanship.  The following suggestions will help
you care for the Portavision so you can enjoy it for years.

    Keep the Portavision dry.  If it gets wet, wipe it dry immediately.
    Liquids might contain minerals that can corrode electronic circuits.

    Use and store the Portavision only in normal temperature environments,
    and avoid sudden temperature changes.  Temperature extremes can
    shorten the life of the electronic devices, damage batteries, and
    distort or melt plastic parts.

    Handle the Portavision gently and carefully.  Dropping it can damage
    the circuit boards and cause the Portavision to work improperly.

    Keep the Portavision away from dust and dirt, which can cause
    premature wear of parts.

    Wipe the Portavision with a damp cloth occasionally to keep it looking
    new.  Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong
    detergents to clean the Portavision.

    Use only fresh batteries of the recommended size and type.  Always
    remove old or weak batteries.  They can leak chemicals that can
    destroy electronic circuits.

Modifying or tampering with the Portavision's internal components can
cause a malfunction and might invalidate the warranty and void your FCC
authorization to operate it.  If the Portavision is not performing as it
should, take it to your local Radio Shack store for assistance.

CHANGING THE FUSE

If the TV does not work using vehicle battery power, check the fuse in the
DC adapter cord.  If the fuse if bad, replace it with a 3-amp fuse, such
as Radio Shack Cat. No. 270-1276.  Do not use a fuse with a higher rating.

THE FCC WANTS YOU TO KNOW

Your Portavision might cause TV or radio interference even when it is
operating properly.  To determine whether your Portavision is causing the
interference, turn off your Portavision.  If the interference goes away,
your Portavision is causing the interference.

Follow these guidelines to try to eliminate the interference.

    Move your Portavision away from the TV or radio receiving the
    interference.

    Connect your Portavision to an outlet that is on a different
    electrical circuit than the TV or radio receiving the interference.

    Contact your local Radio Shack store for assistance.

If you cannot eliminate the interference, the FCC requires that you stop
using your Portavision TV/radio.
