Optimus SCP-98 - Manual (Page 9)

9
Cautions:
• The recommended DC adapters supply 3 volts and
deliver at least 300 milliamps. Their center tips are set to
negative, and their plugs correctly fit the SCP-98’s
DC 3V
jack. Using a DC adapter that does not meet these spec-
ifications could damage the SCP-98 or the adapter.
• Always plug the DC adapter into the SCP-98 before you
plug it into the vehicle’s cigarette-lighter socket, and
always unplug it from the cigarette-lighter before you
unplug it from the SCP-98.
• Unplug the adapter from your vehicle’s cigarette-lighter
socket when you turn off the ignition. This prevents your
vehicle’s battery from being drained if you leave the SCP-
98 on when you turn off the ignition.
Follow these steps to power the SCP-98 from your vehicle’s
battery power.
1. Set the adapter’s voltage switch to 3V.
