Before you begin
Plugging in for power
•Insert the plug of the unit into an AC power outlet.
•AC OUTLET POWER SUPPLY: 120V~60Hz
•Power is fed to the unit even when it is not functioning. To cut the power supply off, the power cable must be unplugged.
Refer to the “Clock” section and follow the instructions to get the clock time shown correctly with the Auto Clock set feature.
Battery back-up operation
This clock radio is equipped with a memory holding system that can be powered with 2 “AA” batteries (included and installed). The power failure protection circuit will not operate unless battery is installed. When normal household power is interrupted, or AC line cord is unplugged, the batteries will power the clock radio to keep track of time and alarm settings programmed into memory. When the battery backup functions, the digital display will not light, however, the function of alarm 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 the alarm.
To install or replace the batteries:
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.Insert or replace 2 AA batteries.
3.Replace the compartment door.
•It is recommended that you replace the batteries every year.
•It is recommended to plug the unit for AC power while replacing batteries to avoid the loss of clock and wake time/mode settings.
Power failure indicator
When external DC 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.
