PREPARATION
CONNECTING POWER
The SCP-101 operates from any of these power sources:
• internal batteries (not supplied)
• standard AC power (using an optional AC adapter)
• vehicle battery power (using an optional DC adapter)
Using Internal Batteries
Your SCP-101 requires two AA batteries (not supplied for
power. For the best performance and longest life, we rec-
ommend RadioShack alkaline batteries.
Cautions:
• Use only fresh batteries of the required size and rec-
ommended type.
• Do not mix old and new batteries, different types of
batteries (standard, alkaline, or rechargeable) or
rechargeable batteries of different capacities.

Follow these steps to install batteries.
1. Press and slide the battery compartment cover in the
direction of the arrow until it stops.
2. Lift the curved edge of the cover.
Caution: The battery compartment cover is hinged
and cannot be removed.
3. Place the batteries in the compartment and on top of
the attached ribbon, as indicated by the polarity sym-
bols (+ and –) marked on outside the compartment.
4. Close the cover.
When the sound gets distorted or weak, or the SCP-101
stops operating properly, replace the batteries.
Warning: Dispose of old batteries promptly and properly.
Do not burn or bury them.
Caution: If you do not plan to use the SCP-101 with bat-
teries for a week or more, or if you plan to use only stan-

dard AC or vehicle power, remove the batteries. Batteries
can leak chemicals that can destroy electronic parts.
USING AC POWER
You can power the SCP-101 using a 3V, 300-mA AC
adapter and a size H Adaptaplug®(neither supplied).
Both are available at your local RadioShack store.
Cautions:
You must use a Class 2 power source that
supplies 3V DC and delivers at least 300
mA. Its center tip must be set to positive and
its plug must fit the SCP-101's DC 3V jack. Using an
adapter that does not meet these specifications could
damage the SCP-101 or the adapter.
• Always connect the AC adapter to the SCP-101 be-
fore you connect it to AC power. When you finish,
disconnect the adapter from AC power before you
disconnect it from the SCP-101.

Follow these steps to power the SCP-101 from standard
AC power.
1. If the adapter has a voltage switch, set the switch to
3V.
2. Insert the Adaptaplug into the adapter’s cord so it
reads TIP +.
3. Insert the Adaptaplug into the SCP-101’s DC 3V jack.
4. Plug the adapter into a standard AC outlet.
Note: Connecting an adapter to the SCP-101's DC 3V
jack disconnects the internal batteries.
USING VEHICLE BATTERY POWER
You can power the SCP-101 from a vehicle’s 12V power
source (such as cigarette-lighter socket) using a 3V, 300-
mA DC adapter and a size H Adaptaplug (neither sup-
plied). Both are available at your local RadioShack store.

before you disconnect it from the SCP-101.

3. Insert the Adaptaplug into the SCP-101's DC 3V jack.
Note: Connecting an adapter to the SCP-101's DC
3V jack disconnects the internal batteries.
4. Plug the other end of the DC adapter into the vehi-
cle's cigarette-lighter socket.
CONNECTING HEADPHONES/
SPEAKERS
To listen to the SCP-101, connect stereo headphones or
amplified speakers (neither supplied) equipped with a 1/8-
inch (3.5-mm) stereo plug to PHONES. Your local
RadioShack store sells a wide variety of stereo head-
phones and amplified speakers.

Listening Safely
To protect your hearing, follow these guidelines when
you use headphones.
• Set the volume to the lowest setting before you begin
listening. After you begin listening, adjust the volume
to a comfortable level.
• Do not listen at extremely high volume levels.
Extended high-volume listening can lead to perma-
nent hearing loss.
• Once you set the volume, do not increase it. Over
time your ears adapt to the volume level, so a volume
level that does not cause discomfort might still dam-
age your hearing.
Traffic Safety
• Do not wear headphones while operating a motor
vehicle or riding a bicycle. This can cause a traffic
hazard and could be illegal in some areas.
• Even though some headphones are designed to let
you hear outside sounds when you listen at normal
volume levels, they still can present a traffic hazard.
