Care And Maintenance - Timex T231 User Manual

Dimmer (Display Brightness) Control
By default the display brightness is set to the Hi level at our factory. Press and hold the
DIMMER button once to reduce the display brightness to a low level. Press and hold again to
return to full brightness.
Auxiliary Input (AUX IN) Jack (on back panel)
You can listen to music from an external source such as an iPod, MP3 player, CD player, etc,
through the speaker of your Timex clock radio. Use a 3.5mm stereo audio cable (not included)
to connect the headphone jack of your external source to the AUX IN jack on the back panel of
your Timex clock radio.
Press the MODE/ALM RESET button on the radio until the display shows "AUH". Begin
playback on your external device. Adjust the volume level of the clock radio as desired. You
may need to adjust the volume level on your external device as well.
When you are finished listening press and hold the MODE/ALM RESET button until the display
shows 'OFF'. Don't forget to turn off your external device as well.
Replacing The Back Up Batteries / Power Failure
Good quality alkaline batteries should last for at least one year under normal conditions. When
the back up batteries start to lose power the Low Battery indicator will appear in the upper right
corner of the display. Leave the clock radio connected to the AC outlet while replacing the
exhausted batteries to avoid having to reset the time, alarm times, and radio preset station
memories.
If you experience a power failure and the back up batteries are exhausted, the display will begin
flashing when the power is restored. If you notice the flashing display you should first remove
the exhausted batteries, install fresh batteries, and then reset the time, alarm times, and preset
station memories as described in this manual.
Cleaning The Cabinet
If the cabinet becomes dusty wipe with a soft, dry dust cloth. Never spray the cabinet with
furniture dusting sprays. If the cabinet becomes dirty or smudged with fingerprints, wipe it with
a soft cloth slightly dampened with a mild soap and water solution. Never use chemicals or
abrasive cleaners. Never allow water or any other liquid to enter the cabinet.
There are no user serviceable parts inside this unit. To avoid the potential for electric shock
never open the cabinet yourself. Refer all service problems to a qualified service technician at a
factory authorized service center. Consult your warranty for more details.
