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

plug from the Main Unit into the video-in (Yellow) jack on your VCR, the

untimed (i.e. Crane Construction or Pave the Road).

ing and stacking a set of different floors.
