• For better reception in your vehicle,

you can connect a mobile TV
antenna (such as Cat. No. 15-1614,
not supplied) to the 

EXT ANT

 jack.

• The TV is not “cable ready.”

CONNECTING AN 
EARPHONE OR 
HEADPHONES

For private listening, you can connect an
optional earphone or headphones with a

1

/

8

-inch mini plug. Your local Radio

Shack store carries a wide selection of
earphones and headphones.

Insert the earphone’s/headphones’ plug
into the television’s 

EAR

 jack. This auto-

matically disconnects the television’s in-
ternal speaker.

Listening Safely

To protect your hearing, follow these
guidelines when you use an earphone or
headphones.

• 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 vol-

ume 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 vol-
ume level that does not cause dis-
comfort might still damage your
hearing.

Traffic Safety

Do not wear an earphone or head-
phones while operating a motor vehicle.
This can create a traffic hazard and
could be illegal in some areas.

Even though some earphones or head-
phones let you hear some outside
sounds when listening at normal volume
levels, they still can present a traffic haz-
ard.
