Using Vehicle Battery Power
Your walkie-talkie comes with a DC car adapter that is ideal for
use in your vehicle. It lets you power your walkie-talkie from your
vehicle’s cigarette lighter socket (if your vehicle has a 12-volt
negative-ground electrical system), and its antenna adapter con-
nector makes it easy to connect to an external antenna mounted
on your vehicle. Your local Radio Shack store sells a wide vari-
ety of mobile walkie-talkie antennas. Choose the one that best
meets your needs.
Follow these steps to use DC power.
1. If either battery case is connected to the walkie-talkie, push
the battery latch up and slide the battery case off the
walkie-talkie.
2. Slide the DC car adapter onto the walkie-talkie.
Caution:
Before plugging the DC adapter’s cigarette lighter
plug into your vehicle’s cigarette lighter socket, make sure
the cap is screwed firmly onto the plug. See “Replacing the
DC Car Adapter Fuse” on Page 34 for more information
about the cigarette lighter plug.
