Connect a size C Adaptaplug to
the adapter's cable with the tip set
to positive then insert the
Adaptaplug into the scanner’s
PWR DC 9V
jack. For best results,
we recommend RadioShack
rechargeable nickel-metal hydride
(Ni-MH) 1500mAh batteries.

The scanner can also charge Ni-
Cd batteries. 600mAh batteries
require 6 hours and 850mAh
batteries require 8 hours to
charge.
Rechargeable batteries last longer
and deliver more power if you let
them fully discharge once a
month. To do this, use the scanner
until
8888
appears. Then fully charge
the rechargeable batteries.

You can power the scanner using
a 9V, 300 mA AC adapter (Cat.
No. 273-1767) and a size C
Adaptaplug™ adapter (neither
supplied). Both are available at
your local RadioShack store.

To power the scanner using an AC
adapter, attach the Adaptaplug to
the AC adapter so the tip reads
positive (+), then insert the
Adaptaplug into the scanner's
PWR DC 9V
jack. Then connect the
other end of the adapter to a
standard AC outlet.

You must
use a
Class 2
power source that
supplies 9V DC
and delivers at
least 300 mA. Its
center tip must be
set to positive and
its plug must fit the
scanner's PWR
DC 9V jack. Using
an adapter that
does not meet
these specifica-
tions could dam-
age the scanner
or the adapter.
•
Always connect
the AC adapter to
the scanner
before you
connect it to AC
power. When you
finish, disconnect
the adapter from
AC power before
you disconnect it
from the scanner.

When you charge Ni-
Cd batteries, pay
attention not to over
charge. Overcharging
shortens battery life.
