When you finish using the TRC-235,
unplug the fused cord from the ciga-
rette-lighter socket before you dis-
connect it from your TRC-235.
1. If the TRC-235 is on, turn
OFF/VOL-
UME
fully counterclockwise until it
clicks to turn it off.
2. Be sure
ALKALINE/NI
CD
inside the
battery compartment is set to
ALKA-
LINE
.
3. Insert the power cord’s 5.5 mm outer
diameter/2.1 mm inner diameter bar-
rel plug into the
POWER
jack.
4. Plug the power cord’s other end into
your vehicle’s cigarette-lighter sock-
et.
Note:
If the TRC-235 does not oper-
ate when you use the DC power
cord, unplug the cord from the ciga-
rette-lighter socket and clean any
ashes or debris from the socket. If
your TRC-235 still does not work,
check the fuse in the DC power cord
and replace it if necessary.
USING AC POWER
You can power your TRC-235 from stan-
dard AC power using an optional 12-volt
AC adapter that provides 1 amp, such as
RadioShack Cat. No. 273-1653.
Cautions:
The adapter must be able to deliver
12 volts and at least 1 amp, its cen-
ter tip must be set to positive, and
the barrel plug must correctly fit the
TRC-235’s
POWER
jack. The recom-
mended adapter meets these speci-
fications. Using an adapter that does
not meet these specifications could
damage the TRC-235 or the adapter.
