You can power the scanner from a
vehicle’s 12V power source (such
as a cigarette-lighter socket) using
a 9V, 300 mA DC adapter and a
size C Adaptaplug™ adapter
(neither supplied). Both are
available at your local RadioShack
store.

To power the scanner using a DC
adapter, attach the Adaptaplug to
the DC adapter so the tip reads
positive (+) and set the adapter's
voltage switch to 9V. Next, insert
the Adaptaplug into the scanner's
PWR DC 9V
jack. Plug the other
end of the DC adapter into your
vehicle's cigarette-lighter socket.

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.
