239’s

jack.

2. Connect the other end of the power cord to your

vehicle’s cigarette lighter socket.

USING AC POWER

You can power the TRC-239 using an optional DC
power supply that provides 13.8 volts (12-volt nomi-
nal) at 1300 mA. You also need a fused power cord
that ends in a size M Adaptaplug adapter (neither
supplied). Both are available at your local Ra-
dioShack store.

Cautions:

You must use a power supply that sup-
plies 13.8V DC and delivers at least
1300 mA. Its fused connecting cord’s

center tip must be set to positive and its plug
must fit the TRC-239's

POWER

jack. Using a

power supply that does not meet these specifi-
cations could damage the TRC-239, the power
cord, or the power supply.

• Always connect the power supply to the TRC-

239 before you connect it to AC power. When
