3. Place the battery holder into the battery
compartment and replace the cover.
Warning: Never install non-rechargeable batteries in the
rechargeable yellow battery holder. Non-rechargeable
batteries can get hot or explode if you try to recharge them.
Cautions:
• The battery holders fit only one way. Do not force
them.
• Use only fresh batteries of the required size and
recommended type.
• Remove old or weak batteries. Batteries can leak
chemicals that destroy electronic circuits.
• Dispose of old batteries promptly and properly. Do
not burn or bury them.
• Do not mix old and new batteries, different types of
batteries (alkaline, or rechargeable), or rechargeable
batteries of different capacities.
• If you do not plan to use the scanner with batteries
for a month or longer, remove the batteries. Batteries
can leak chemicals that can destroy electronic parts.
Using AC Power
Power the scanner using the supplied AC adapter.
To disconnect, unplug the adapter first.
Caution: Only use the supplied AC adapter. You must
use a Class 2 power source that supplies 9V DC and
delivers at least 400mA. Its center tip must be set to
positive and its plug must fit the scanner's DC 9V jack.
Using an adapter that does not meet these specifications
could damage the scanner or the adapter.
Note: 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.
