PREPARATION FOR USE

SURE-ALARM BATTERY BACK UP SYSTEM

This clock radio includes a battery back up system that will maintain the correct time and alarm settings in case of a temporary power interruption. As long as the battery has sufficient power, it will also operate the Radio or Buzzer alarm to wake you up even if the power is ‘Off’ at your normal wake up time. The battery back up system requires one 9 volt battery,(not included). We recommend you use an alkaline battery for longest life.

Open the battery compartment door, located on the back of the radio cabinet.

Gently pull the battery terminal outside the battery compartment.

• Connect the 9 volt battery to the battery terminal. It can only be

 

 

 

connected one way.

 

 

 

• Push the battery and the terminal back into the battery

If the power is interrupted the clock display goes ‘Off ’. However the clock will continue to run, powered by the 9 volt battery. When power is restored the clock will come ‘On ’ again to the correct time. The alarm setting will also be maintained.

NOTE: If no battery is installed, or if the battery is exhausted and power is interrupted, the time and alarm settings will be lost. When power is restored the clock display will begin flashing “12:00 AM”. This is your indication that the time is incorrect and needs to be reset. Don’t forget to reset both the time and the wake up time.

A fresh alkaline battery should be able to provide back up power for up to a year in normal circumstances. However if you live in an area that has frequent power interruptions the battery life will be reduced. For best results you should install a new battery every 8 to 12 months. If you installed a battery but you notice that the display is flashing, your battery is exhausted and should be replaced.

POWER SOURCE

This radio operates on 120V, 60Hz AC house current only. Unwind the AC power cord and connect the plug to any conveniently located AC outlet.

NOTES:

1.) This radio uses a polarized AC plug which has one blade wider than the other. This plug will only fit into a polarized AC outlet. This is a safety feature. If the plug will not fit, you may have an older non-polarized AC outlet. Do not defeat the safety feature by trying to file the wider blade, or replacing the plug. Contact an electrician to replace your outdated outlet.

2.) Do not connect this unit to an AC outlet which is controlled by a wall switch. The AC outlet should be ‘live’ at all times.

ANTENNA INFORMATION

FM - The FM antenna is built into the AC power cord. Be sure the AC power cord is fully unwound and extended to its full length for best FM reception.

AM - The AM ferrite bar antenna is inside the radio cabinet. If AM reception is noisy or weak, try turning the radio slightly until the bar antenna is pointing towards the transmitter. Experiment until you find the position which provides the clearest reception.
