• If you do not plan to use batteries in the trans-
ceiver for a month or more, remove the bat-
teries. This protects the transceiver from
possible battery leakage.
6. Replace the cover.

Using Vehicle Battery Power
You can power your transceiver from your vehicle’s
cigarette lighter socket with an optional DC cigarette
lighter power cord (such as Cat. No. 270-1534).
Cautions:
• You must use a DC power cord that supplies 12
volts and delivers at least 2.5 amps. Its center tip
must be set to positive, and it must have a plug
that properly fits your transceiver’s
DC13.8V
CHARGE
jack. The recommended power cord
meets these requirements. Using a power cord
that does not meet these specifications could
damage the transceiver or the power cord.
• To protect your vehicle’s electrical system,
always plug the power cord into the transceiver
before you plug it into your vehicle’s cigarette
lighter socket. Always unplug the power cord
from the vehicle’s cigarette lighter socket before
you unplug it from the transceiver.
1. Insert the power cord’s barrel plug into the trans-
ceiver’s
DC13.8V CHARGE
jack.
2. Plug the other end of the cord into your vehicle’s
cigarette lighter socket.
