Make sure the power is turned off.

If the adapter has a voltage switch, set the switch to 6V.

Insert the Adaptaplug into the DC adapter's cord so it reads TIP +. Then, insert the Adaptaplug into the scanner's DC 6V jack.

Plug the other end of the adapter into your vehicle's cigarette-lighter socket.

If rechargeable batteries are installed and ALKALINE/RECHARGEABLE is set to RECHARGEABLE, the adapter powers the scanner and recharges the installed batteries at the same time.

Note: If the scanner does not operate properly when you use a DC adapter, unplug the adapter from the cigarette-lighter socket and clean the socket to remove ashes and debris.
