Be sure to unplug the adapter from the wall outlet
before you remove the barrel from the PWR jack on
the scanner.
Charging Batteries
Should you choose to use nickel-cadmium batteries, it
is possible to recharge them while inside the scanner.
1. Install nickel-cadmium batteries as instructed
above.
2. Plug your AC adapter into the CHG jack.
Your scanner will work off the AC power from the
outlet and recharge the batteries at the same time.
DC A
DAPTER
If you plan to operate the scanner in your vehicle, you
may choose to power it using a DC adapter and the
socket of the cigarette lighter. Check to make sure
the socket is attached to a 12-volt, negative-ground
electrical system.
Connect and disconnect with the scanner same as an
AC adapter.
WARNING: The adapter you use must supply 9-volts with
the center tip set to negative.
It also must fit properly into the PWR jack and deliver at
least 300 milliamperes.
• The adapter's voltage switch must be set on 9V.
• Never leave the adapter plugged into the lighter
when it isn't attached to the scanner. Always
disconnect the adapter from the lighter first,
then the scanner.
• If the scanner does not properly operate while
trying to use a DC adapter, simply unplug the adapter
from the lighter socket and clean the socket.
