Power supply
Battery operation
• Insert 2 ААА (UM-4) batteries (not included)
to the terminals inside the battery compartment
according to the polarity marks (+ and -). Your
set will not work normally from the battery
supply, but there is now the advantage that, in
case of a mains current failure or power
outage, your clock will continue to work. The
clock display will not light up, the clock time
and alarm setting will be held in the clock
memory by the battery back-up system.
This enables you to move the set from place
to place without re-setting the clock every
time. The battery back-up system is only
meant to be used for short-term power
failures. For longer durations the batteries may
become exhausted or there may be some
deviation in accuracy.
• When the batteries are exhausted, they
should be removed from the set to prevent
leakage. If you do not wish to take advantage
of the battery back-up system, your set will
work normally without batteries. However, if
disconnected from the mains, the clock figures
will flash when the mains are reconnected and
you must re-set the clock.
