Before You Begin

Plugging In For Power

AC OUTLET POWER SUPPLY:

120V~60Hz

Battery Back-Up Operation

The power failure protection circuit will not operate unless battery is installed.

When the battery backup functions, the digital display will not light, however, the wake function still occurs during the power interruption if remaining battery power is adequate.

Normal operation will resume after AC power is restored so you will not have to reset the time or wake.

Install battery as follow:

1. Remove battery compartment door

(located at the bottom of the radio) by applying thumb pressure to the tab on battery door and then lift the door out and off the cabinet.

2. Connect a 9-volt battery (not supplied) to the connector plug.

3. Replace the compartment door.

Power Failure Indicator

When AC power is interrupted (disconnected) for a short period of time, both time and alarm settings will change (unless batteries are installed). After AC power is restored

(reconnected), the Digital Display will blink to indicate that power was interrupted and you should readjust the time and alarm settings.

Alkaline (NEDA 1604A/IEC

6LR61) batteries are recommended.

Carbon-zinc battery may be used but memory holding time will be substantially reduced. Memory holding time for a fresh alkaline battery is take care of short, nuisance-type AC power failures. To preserve battery life, the unit should remain plugged into an AC outlet. As the battery gets older, its voltage drops and memory may be lost. Be sure to replace the battery periodically. Battery should be removed if the unit will be stored for more than one month. Leaky battery can badly damage the clock radio.

Safety Information

For Your Safety

The AC power plug is polarized

(one blade is wider than the other) and only fits into AC power outlets one way. If the plug will not go into the outlet completely, turn the plug over and try to insert it the other way. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to change the outlet, or use a different one. Do not attempt to bypass this safety feature.
