1.  Turn the inverter on, as the TV is powered by the inverter.
2.  Turn on the DC ELECTRIC rocker switch; it powers the amplifier, speakers, and head unit.
3.  Push up on the TV to disengage the latch and swing the TV down. 
4.  Turn on the TV using the remote.
5.  Use the remote to select the input for what you would like to watch.
6.  On the head unit, select the AV Setting so that the sound from the TV is broadcast from the head unit to all speakers.
7.  Use the head unit remote or the volume controls on the head unit itself to adjust the volume.
8.  If you do not have a wireless means of connecting to the TV, use the HDMI cable that is directly behind the TV to connect a phone, laptop, or other device.  Use the standard outlet next to the the HDMI cable to power the device, and make sure the inverter is turned on for this device to work.
