CAUTION

You must use a power source ! that supplies 6V

DC and delivers

at least 300 mA. Its center tip must be set to positive and its plug must fit the scanner’s PWR DC 6V jack. Using an adapter that does not meet these specifications could damage the scanner or the adapter.

Ô NOTES Ô

If you use a cigarette- lighter power cable and your vehicle’s engine is running, you might hear electrical noise from the engine while scanning. This is normal.

recharging the batteries, but charging takes longer.

USING AC POWER

You can power the scanner using a 6V, 300-mA AC adapter and a size B Adaptaplug™ adapter (neither supplied). Both are available at your local RadioShack store.

To power the scanner using an AC adapter, attach the Adaptaplug to the AC adapter so the tip reads positive (+), then insert the Adaptaplug into the scanner’s PWR DC 6V jack. Connect the other end of the adapter to a standard AC outlet.

USING A 12V POWER SOURCE

You can power the scanner from a vehicle’s 12V power source (such as a cigarette-lighter socket) using a 6V, 300-mA DC adapter and a size B Adaptaplug (neither supplied.) Both are available at your local RadioShack store.

To power the scanner using a DC adapter, attach the Adaptaplug to the DC adapter so the tip reads positive (+), set the adapter’s voltage switch to 6V, then insert the Adaptaplug into the scanner’s PWR DC 6V jack. Plug the other end of the DC adapter into your vehicle’s cigarette-lighter socket.Ô
