USING VEHICLE BATTERY POWER
You can power the TRC-239 from a vehicle’s 12V power source (such as cigarette-lighter socket) using a fused DC power cord that ends in a size M Adapta- plug® adapter (neither supplied). Both are available at your local RadioShack store.
Cautions:
You must use a power source that
!supplies 13.8 volts (12-volt nominal) at 1300 mA. Its center tip must be set to
positive and its plug must fit the TRC-239's POWER jack. Using a power source that does not meet these specifications could damage the TRC-239 or the power cord.
•Always connect the fused power cord to the TRC-239 before you connect it to the power source. When you finish, disconnect the fused power cord from the power source before you disconnect it from the TRC-239.
If batteries are installed, make sure NI/AL inside the battery compartment is set to the correct position (see “Using Batteries” on Page 7).
