Using Your Vehicle's Cigarette-Lighter
Socket
To power the SCP-84 from your vehicle's cigarette-lighter
socket, you need a DC adapter, such as Cat. No. 270-
1560.
Cautions:
• The recommended DC cigarette-lighter adapter sup-
plies 3 volts and delivers at least 300 milliamps. Its
center tip is set to negative, and its plug correctly fits
the jack on the bottom of the SCP-84. Using
DC 3V
an adapter that does not meet these specifications
could damage the SCP-84 or the adapter.
• Unplug the adapter from your vehicle's cigarette-
lighter socket when you turn off the ignition. This pre-
vents your vehicle's battery from being drained if you
leave the SCP-84 on when you turn off the ignition.
