Operation
• Unplug the power cord's cigarette-lighter plug from your
vehicle's cigarette-lighter socket when you turn off the igni-
tion. This prevents your vehicle's battery from being
drained if you leave the detector on when you turn off the
ignition.
Plug the supplied power cord's barrel plug into the detector's
DC 12V jack. Then plug the cord's cigarette-lighter plug into
your vehicle's cigarette-lighter socket.
Note: If the detector does not operate when you turn it on, re-
move the cigarette-lighter plug from your vehicle's socket and
check the socket for ashes and other debris. Also, check the
fuse in the cigarette-lighter plug and your vehicle's fuse block
(see “Replacing the Fuse” on Page 26).
