Replacing And Installing Clock Backup Batteries - iHome iBT230 Instruction Manual

Replacing and Installing Clock Backup Batteries

Note: 2 AA batteries are included with the unit. Install them before using the unit.
This model is equipped with a battery backup circuit that will maintain the time and alarm time settings in
the event of a temporary power interruption (the display is NOT lit). The battery backup circuit will also
operate the buzzer alarm to wake you up at the selected wake up time even if the power is out. When the
backup batteries are getting weak the Low Backup Battery Indicator will begin flashing in the display.
When you see this flashing indicator you should replace the backup batteries as soon as possible. Note:
We recommend alkaline batteries for best performance.
To install/replace the backup batteries:
IMPORTANT: When replacing the backup batteries be sure to have the
unit connected to the AC outlet to maintain all of your settings,
otherwise it will be necessary to reset the time and alarm time after the
batteries are replaced.
1. Press tab to remove the battery door located on the bottom of the unit.
If replacing batteries, remove the exhausted batteries.
2. Insert 2 fresh AA batteries in the backup battery compartment. Make
sure the polarity of the batteries ("+" or "-" nodes) matches the
illustration.
3. Close the battery compartment door. Confirm that the backup battery
indicator is not flashing in the display.
Note: Make sure you dispose of batteries properly (see your local regulations)
