DC Power Cable
Connect the supplied DC power cable to a vehicle
power source:
1. Disconnect your battery's negative (-) terminal.
NOTE: Disconnecting your battery may reset some
devices in your vehicle, such as automotive audio
systems, navigation systems, or alarm systems.
2. Route the suppled DC power cord between a
power source and the mounting location for your
scanner.
3. Ground the power cord's black wire to your
vehicle’s chassis.
NOTE: The grounding screw must make complete
contact with the metal frame of your vehicle.
4. Connect the power cord's red wire to a voltage
source that turns on and off with the ignition
switch, such as a spare accessory terminal in your
vehicle’s fuse box.
5. Insert the power plug into the DC power jack on
the rear of the radio.
6. Reconnect the cable to the negative (-) terminal of
your vehicle’s battery.
NOTE: If your vehicle’s engine is running, you might
hear electrical noise from the engine while scanning.
This is normal.
WARNING: The DC power cord is equipped with an
inline fuse. This fuse protects your scanner and your
vehicle from damage in case of equipment malfunction
or a short circuit. Do not remove the inline fuse holder
from the DC power cord. If the fuse blows, replace
it with a 2A fuse and apply power again. If the fuse
blows again, check all wiring for short circuits, and
check the radio for a malfunction.
