INSTALLATION
Unravel the AC cord and connect it to a
conveniently located AC outlet having 120V and 60Hz only. The Clock Display will illuminate and “12:00” will blink in the display and the backlight will light.
NOTE: If the AC plug does not fit into a nonpolarized outlet, do not file or cut the
wide blade. It is the user’s responsibility to have an electrician replace the obsolete outlet.
If the AC cord is disconnected or if there is a power failure, this electronic clock is designed to continue operating internally (without showing the time on the Clock Display) with two (2) AAA size batteries (not included).
