Using DC Power

To power the recorder from your vehicle’s cigarette-lighter socket, you need a DC adapter (not supplied), such as Cat. No. 270-1560.

Cautions:

•You must use an adapter that supplies 3 volts and delivers at least 300 milliamps. Its center tip must be set to negative, and it must have a plug that properly fits the CTR-106’s DC 3V jack. The recommended adapter meets these specifications. Using an adapter that does not meet these specifications could dam- age the CTR-106 or the adapter.

•Connecting a DC adapter automatically disconnects internal batteries.

•Always plug the adapter into the recorder before you plug it into the cigarette-lighter socket. Always unplug the adapter from the cigarette-lighter socket before you unplug it from the recorder.
