Installation; Battery Precautions - Emerson CKD9908 Owner's Manual

CKD9908 O/M.QXD 1/29/01
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 appear in
the display.
NOTE: If the AC plug does not fit into a nonpolarized outlet, do not file or cut the
wide blade.
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 a 9 volt battery (not included). To install the battery,
remove the battery compartment cover and connect the
battery to the terminals of the battery snap inside the
compartment (use of an alkaline battery is recommended)
and install the battery compartment cover back into place.
Be sure to check the condition of the battery periodically by disconnecting the AC
cord and connecting it again 2 or 3 minutes later. The preset times should
continue operating. If the present time resets to "12:00", it indicates the battery is
dead or not connected properly. A fresh 9 volt battery will keep the internal times
accurately for approximately 30 minutes. If the power is restored after 30 minutes,
the times may need to be reset.
Follow these precautions when using batteries in this device:
1. Use only the size and type of batteries specified.
2. Be sure to follow the correct polarity when installing the batteries as indicated in the
battery compartment. Reversed batteries may cause damage to the device.
3. If the device is not to be used for a long period of time, remove the batteries to prevent
damage or injury from possible battery leakage.
4. Do not try to recharge batteries not intended to be recharged; they can overheat and
rupture. (Follow battery manufacturer's directions.)
