USING A VEHICLE BATTERY

With a DC adapter (such as Cat. No. 14-844, not supplied), you can
operate the receiver in a car, boat, or recreational vehicle equipped
with a 12-volt DC, negative-ground electrical system.
Insert the adapter's barrel plug into the receiver's
the adapter's 6V/9V selector to 6V. Then plug the other end of the
adapter into the vehicle's cigarette-lighter socket. Internal batteries
automatically disconnect.
Cautions:
• The recommended adapter supplies 6 volts DC and delivers at
least 300 milliamps with its center tip set to negative. Using an
adapter that does not meet the specifications could damage
the receiver or the adapter.
• Do not let the adapter's barrel plug contact any metal parts of
the vehicle when you plug the adapter into the lighter socket.
This can damage the adapter or the vehicle's electrical system.
