Setting Up The Scanner
These guidelines will help you install and use your new scanner:
If your scanner receives interference or electrical noise, move the
scanner or its antenna away from the source. You might also try
changing the height or angle of the antennas.
Use an optional mono earphone or mono headset with proper
impedance for private listening.
Do not use the scanner in high-moisture environments such as in the
kitchen or bathroom.
Avoid placing the scanner in direct sunlight or near heating elements
or vents.
Connecting Power
Insert the supplied AC
Adapter’s barrel plug into the
power jack on the back of the
scanner. Then plug the
Adapter into a standard
household outlet that supplies
120V AC, 60Hz. Do not plug
the adapter into a switch
controlled outlet.
Open the battery compartment
and insert 3 AA batteries.
Be sure to note the polarity
markings in the battery
compartment. You can use
either alkaline or rechargeable
batteries, but the scanner will
not recharge batteries in the
compartment.
Use only fresh alkaline or
rechargeable AA batteries.
Always remove old or weak
batteries. Batteries can leak
chemicals that destroy
electronic circuits.
Do not mix old an new batteries, different types of batteries
(standard, alkaline, or rechargeable) or rechargeable batteries of
