REPLACING THE FUSES

The fuses in the scanner’s DC power cord and DC cigarette-lighter power cord help protect your scanner from power surges and short circuits. If the fuse in the DC power cord has blown, replace it with a 1-amp, fast-acting glass fuse (such as RadioShack Cat. No. 270-1005). For the fuse in the DC cigarette-lighter power cord, replace it with a 2-amp, fast-acting glass fuse (such as RadioShack Cat. No. 270- 1007).

Warnings:

Before you begin, turn off the scanner and your vehicle’s igni- tion.

Make sure you replace the fuse only with another fuse of the same type and rating.
