RESETTING THE CLOCK AFTER A TOTAL MEMORY LOSS

If you do not change the built in lithium battery within a reasonable period of time after you see the LOW BATT warning indicator, the lithium battery may become exhausted and will no longer be able to supply back up power to the internal computer. If the unit is disconnected from the AC outlet after the battery is exhausted, or if a power interruption occurs, the unit’s memory will be lost and the clock will need to be reset when the power is restored. Be sure to install a fresh lithium battery before you reset the clock, otherwise the clock will need to be reset each time the power is interrupted.

If the lithium battery is exhausted and you experience an interruption in the AC power supply, the clock will reset itself to its initial default setting when the power is restored. If you notice that the time on the unit is completely incorrect, and the Month and Day indicators are also wrong, press the RANDOM/YEAR button to see the Year. If the year display is showing “2000”, you probably experienced a total memory loss. To reset the clock after a total memory loss, proceed as follows:

1.) Follow the instructions on page 19 and install a new CR2032 lithium battery in the battery compartment.

2.) Connect the radio to your AC outlet .

3.) Hold the PROGRAM/TIME ZONE button and then press either the SKIP FWD/ UP or SKIP REV/DOWN button until the time zone code which stands for your location appears on the display.

4.) Depress RANDOM/YEAR button, the display will change from “Time”to “Year”.

5.) While holding RANDOM/YEAR button, press the SKIP FWD/UP or SKIP REV/ DOWN button to set the display to the correct year, then release the buttons.

6.) Hold the CD DISPLAY/DATE button, then press the SKIP FWD/UP or SKIP REV/DOWN button to set the display to the correct Month and Date. When the correct Month and Date appear on the display, release these buttons.

7.) Hold the TIME button, then press the SKIP FWD/UP or SKIP REV/DOWN button to set the display to the correct time.

8.) After you set the time, reconfirm that the Year and Month/Date displays are still correct. Make final adjustment if necessary.
