EXTERNAL POWER
Instead of batteries, the Explorer can operate on 6 to 16 volts DC from
an external power source. To use external power, an adapter cable must
be purchased (model CA-2) that will plug into your vehicle’s cigarette
lighter. To use this cable, simply plug one end into the connector on the
Explorer and the other end into the cigarette lighter.
