PREPARATION
CONNECTING TO POWER
You can power your SCP-86 from:
•Internal batteries
•AC power (using an AC adapter)
•Your vehicle’s cigarette-lighter socket (using a DC adapter)
Using Battery Power
To power the SCP-86 from internal batteries, you need two AA batteries. For the best performance and longest life, we recommend alkaline batteries, such as RadioShack Cat. No. 23-557.
You can also use rechargeable nickel-cadmium batteries (Cat. No. 23-125). These batteries (and a battery charger, Cat. No. 23-133) are available at your local RadioShack store.
Caution: Do not mix old and new batteries, different types of batteries (standard, alkaline, or recharge- able), or rechargeable batteries of different capacities.
