PREPARATION

CONNECTING POWER

You can power your CTR-94 from any of these power sources:

•Internal batteries

•Standard AC power (with an optional AC adapter)

•Vehicle battery power (with an optional DC auto adapter)

Note: Connecting an adapter discon- nects the internal batteries.

Cautions:

•Always dispose of old batter- ies promptly and properly.

•Never leave dead, old, or weak batteries in the CTR-94. Batteries can leak chemicals and corrode or damage elec- tronic circuits.

•If you do not plan to use bat- teries in the CTR-94 for a month or more, remove the batteries to protect the CTR- 94 from possible battery leak- age.

Using Internal Batteries

You can power your CTR-94 from four C batteries (not supplied). For the best performance, we recom- mend alkaline batteries, such as Cat. No. 23-551.

1.Press down on the battery com- partment cover’s grooves and slide it off in the direction of the arrow.

3.Install the batteries as indicated by the polarity symbols (+ and –) marked inside the battery com- partment.

Cautions:

•Use only fresh batteries of the required size and type.

•Never mix fresh and old bat- teries, or different battery types.

4.Replace the cover.

2.Remove the old batteries (if nec- essary).
