OWNER’S MANUAL
LCD TV with DVD/CD Player
VP-10

INTRODUCTION
Congratulations, you’ve just bought the sexiest, portable TV/DVD on the
planet. Of course, we may be biased. But consider this: It’s cable, antenna
and rabbit ears ready. It’ll play DVDs and CDs. It’s even MP3 compatible.
Truly, it’s an all-in-one, one-of-a-kind wonder. But don’t let its compact
size fool you. It may not take up lots of room, yet stereo speakers know
how to fill a room with sound. With all that it can do, it’s a pretty hard
working piece of electronics. Hmmm, might it be over-compensating for
something? Like its small size perhaps? We’ll never know.

6. Carts and Stands - The appliance should be used only with a cart or stand that is recommended by the
manufacturer.
6A. An appliance and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven
surfaces may cause the appliance and cart combination to overturn.
7. Wall or Ceiling Mounting - The appliance should be mounted to a wall or ceiling only as recommended
by the manufacturer.
8. Ventilation - The appliance should be situated so that its location or position does not interfere with its proper ventilation. For
example, the appliance should not be situated on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar surface that may block the ventilation openings;
or, placed in a built-in installation, such as a book case or cabinet, that may impede the flow of air through the ventilation openings.
9. Heat - The appliance should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appliances
(including amplifiers) that produce heat.
10. Power Sources - The appliance should be connected to a power supply only of the type described in the operating instructions
