TELEPHONE MEMORY OPERATION

When storing a number, a momentary delay may be needed in the dialing sequence for a stored telephone number.

This is generally used when a “PAUSE” is needed to wait for a dial tone

(e.g. after dialing a long distance access number).

The REO/AL button should be pressed at the point where a pause is needed in the dialing sequence.

During storage, pushing the REDiAL button sewes to store a pause in the dialing sequence as often as needed.

Note: The REDiAL key will place a pause in the dialing sequence anytime it is pres~ afier dialing a number. When storing PAUSE in MEMORY, each PAUSE counts as one stored digit.

::::::

This radio is equipped with a memory holding system that can be powered with a customer-installed %volt battery (not included). When normal household power is interrupted, or AC line cord is unplugged, the battey willpower the radio to keep track of time and alarm settings programmed into memory. When on battery power, the digital display will not light, but the radio will play and alarm will operate. Normal operation will resume after AC power is restored so you will not have to reset time or alarm.

lnstal! batte~ as follows:

1.

Remove battery compartment door (located on bottom of radio) by applying thumb pressure to area indicated on battery door and then sliding door off cabinet.

2. Connect a 9-voit battery connedor. The power failure protetiion

circuit will

not operate unless batte~ is installed.

3. Insed batte~ in compartment and replace compartment door.

Note: Alkaline batte~, NEDA 1604A, is recommended for memoy holding time. Carbon-zinc batte~ (NEDA 1604) may

be used

but memory holding time will be substantially reduced.

Memory holding time for a fresh alkaline battery is approximately 6 hours (if radio or alarm are not operated), which should take care of short, nuisanc+type AC power failures. To presewe battery life, the radio should remain plugged into an AC outlet. As the battery gets olde~ its voltage will drop and memo~ may be lost. Be sure to replace the batte~ periodically. Battery is not included with this clock radio.

lMPO~ANT

Be

sure to

remove battery when storing the set. Battery will be drained if left conneded when set is unplugged. A leaky batte~ can badly damage the clock radio.
