power your VCP from either a standard
AC outlet or your vehicleÕs cigarette-
lighter socket.

Cautions:
in and operate it. This allows any
damaging moisture to completely
evaporate.
¥ If moisture has formed inside the
VCP, it might not operate after you
connect power (see ÒDew Protection
SystemÓ on Page 12).
¥ The supplied AC adapter provides
14 volts DC power and delivers 850
milliamps and has a plug that prop-
erly fits the VCPÕs DC IN 12V jack.
Using an adapter that does not meet
these specifications could damage
the VCP, your TV monitor, or the
adapter.
¥ When you unplug the AC adapter,
grasp the adapterÕs plug, not its
cord.
¥ Always plug the AC adapter into the
VCP before you plug it into the AC
outlet. Always unplug the AC
adapter from the outlet before you
unplug it from the VCP.
