PREPARATION

CONNECTING TO POWER

You can power your SCP-86 from:
• Internal batteries
• AC power (using an AC adapter)
• Your vehicle's cigarette-lighter socket (using a
DC adapter)

Using Battery Power

To power the SCP-86 from internal batteries, you
need two AA batteries. For the best performance and
longest life, we recommend alkaline batteries, such
as RadioShack Cat. No. 23-557.
You can also use rechargeable nickel-cadmium
batteries (Cat. No. 23-125). These batteries (and a
battery charger, Cat. No. 23-133) are available at
your local RadioShack store.
Caution: Do not mix old and new batteries, different
types of batteries (standard, alkaline, or recharge-
able), or rechargeable
capacities.
