Important: At the end of a rechargeable battery’s use-
ful life, it must be recycled or disposed of properly.
Contact your local, county, or state hazardous waste
management authorities for information on recycling or
disposal programs in your area. Some options that
might be available are: municipal curb-side collection,
drop-off boxes at retailers such as your local Ra-
dioShack store, recycling collection centers, and mail-
back programs.
Using AC Power
You can power the scanner from a standard AC outlet
using an optional AC adapter (such as Cat. No. 273-
1665).
Warning: Do not use an AC adapter’s polarized plug
with an extension cord, receptacle, or other outlet un-
less the blades can be fully inserted to prevent blade
exposure.
Cautions:
• The recommended AC adapter supplies 9 volts
and delivers at least 300 milliamps. It has a barrel
plug with a center negative tip that correctly fits the
scanner’s
POWER jack. Using an adapter that
does not meet these specifications could damage
the scanner or the adapter.
• To protect your scanner and AC adapter, always
plug the adapter into the scanner before you plug
it into the AC outlet, and always unplug the
adapter from the AC outlet before you unplug it
from the scanner.
• If batteries are installed, make sure the battery
switch inside the battery compartment is set to the
correct position (see “Using Internal Batteries” on
Page 9).
