I just got my opus

now I have questions:
1) When I connected my lilliput to the cigarette lighter with the provided adapter, there were scan line-ish looking lines. So, I think I would like to wire my lilliput to the opus, so I can have a nice clean 12v connection, as well as a nice clean look. How can this be done?
2) There is no documentation for the opus, so how do I set the shutdown timer settings. And where can I set the type of shutdown (hibernation, stand by, shutdown).
