BCT7

power cord

directly to the fuse block or battery
of your car.

Plug one end of the cigarette lighter
power cord into your vehicle’s
cigarette lighter.

2. Connect the power cord to the

jack marked “DC 13.8V” on the
back of the radio.

3. Attach the external antenna

connector to the jack marked
“ANT.”

Note:

The power cord provided with your

Uniden recommends using an external antenna designed specifically for scanning radios.

Do not use the telescoping antenna in a mobile installation.
