Using Vehicle Battery Power
You can power the scanner from your vehicle’s battery
power using an optional DC adapter such as Cat. No.
270-1560.
Cautions:
• The recommended DC adapter supplies 9 volts
and delivers at least 300 milliamps. It has a barrel
plug with a center negative tip that correctly fits the
scanner’s
POWER
jack. Using an adapter that does
not meet these specifications could damage the
scanner or the adapter.
• To protect your vehicle’s electrical system, always
plug the adapter into the scanner before you plug it
into your vehicle’s cigarette-lighter socket. Always
unplug the adapter from the vehicle’s cigarette-
lighter socket before you unplug it from the scan-
ner.
• If batteries are installed, make sure the battery
switch inside the battery compartment is set to the
correct position (see “Using Internal Batteries” on
Page 9).
