symbols (+ and –) marked on the battery holder.

4. Slide the battery holder or battery pack into the compart-

ment.

Caution:

 The battery holder or battery pack fits only one

way inside the battery compartment. Do not force it.

5. Replace the cover.
When battery power is low, 

BATT

 flashes and the scanner

beeps about every 3 seconds. Immediately replace all six

non-rechargeable batteries or recharge the rechargeable

batteries or battery pack.

Caution:

 Always dispose of old batteries promptly and prop-

erly. Do not bury or burn them.

Using Standard AC Power

To power the scanner from AC power, you need an AC

adapter.

Cautions:

You must use an AC adapter that supplies 9 volts and

delivers at least 300 milliamps. Its center tip must be set

to negative, and its barrel plug must correctly fit the

scanner's 

POWER/CHARGE

 jack. The recommended

adapter meets these specifications. Using an adapter that

does not meet these specifications could damage the

scanner or the adapter.

When you finish using the AC adapter, disconnect it from

the AC outlet first. Then disconnect it from the scanner.

Plug the adapter's barrel plug into the scanner's 

POWER

jack. Then plug the adapter's power module into a standard

AC outlet.

Using Vehicle Battery Power

To power the scanner from your vehicle's cigarette-lighter

socket, you need a DC adapter.

Cautions:

You must use a DC adapter that supplies 9 volts and de-

livers at least 300 milliamps. Its center tip must be set to

negative, and its plug must correctly fit the scanner's

POWER/CHARGE

 jack. The recommended adapter

meets these specifications. Using an adapter that does

not meet these specifications could damage the scanner

or the adapter.
