Setting Up Radica Play TV Jr. Construction
SETTING UP
BATTERY INSTALLATION
On the back of the main unit, open the battery compartment and insert four
(4) C batteries as indicated inside the compartment (alkaline batteries rec-
ommended). Replace the battery compartment door.
NOTE: Batteries in the Main Unit should give you about 10 hours of game
play (if alkaline batteries are used). The game will not operate normally
when the batteries begin to run low. The screen may be blurred and reset-
ting the game may not work. Be sure to install fresh batteries. There is
also no memory function. All game data will be erased when the power is
turned off or batteries are replaced.
TV Connection
NOTE: To connect Play TV Jr. Construction directly to a TV, the TV must
be equipped with audio and video input jacks. They are commonly found
on the front of the TV near the contrast, color, and picture adjustment con-
trols or on the rear of the TV near the antenna and cable/satellite jacks.
If your TV has audio and video input jacks, insert the yellow video plug from
the Main Unit into the video-in (yellow) jack on your TV, the white audio
plug into the left audio-in (white) jack. Then set the TV to the appropriate
video input mode (see your TV's operating manual for details).
If your TV does not have audio and video input jacks, you may connect
Play TV Jr. Construction through a VCR connected to your TV.
CONNECTING TO A VCR
To connect Play TV Jr. Construction to your VCR, insert the yellow video
plug from the Main Unit into the video-in (Yellow) jack on your VCR, the

details).

charge! Build your own home by choos-
ing and stacking a set of different floors.
