REPLACING THE POWER CORD’S FUSE

The TRC-494’s 2-amp fuse helps protect your CB from power surges and short circuits. If the fuse is blown, replace it with a 2-amp, 250-volt, fast-acting fuse (Cat. No. 270-1052).

Follow these steps to replace the fuse.

1.Unplug the power cord from the vehicle’s cigarette lighter and be sure the CB is turned off.

2.To open the cigarette-lighter plug and remove the fuse, turn either end counterclockwise and release it.

3.If the fuse is blown, replace it.

Caution: Make sure you replace the fuse only with another fuse of the same type and rating.

4.To close the cigarette-lighter plug, put the open ends together, then turn either end clockwise.
