Warning: Do not use an AC adapter’s polarized plug with
an extension cord, receptacle, or other outlet unless the
blades can be fully inserted to prevent blade exposure.
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 plug must correctly fit
the scanner’s
PWR/DC 9V
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.
Using Vehicle Battery Power
To power the scanner from your vehicle’s cigarette lighter
socket, you need a DC Adapter, such as Cat. No. 270-
1560.
Cautions:
• You must use a DC adapter that supplies (regulated)
9-volt power and delivers at least 300 milliamps. Its
center tip must be set to negative, and its plug must
correctly fit the scanner’s
PWR/DC 9V
jack. The rec-
ommended adapter meets these specifications.
Using an adapter that does not meet these specifica-
tions 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 scanner.
