PREPARATION FOR USE
UNPACKING AND SET UP
•
Remove any descriptive labels or stickers on the front or top of the cabinet. Do not
remove any labels or stickers from the back or bottom of the cabinet.
•
Note the serial number on the bottom of your radio and write this number in the
space provided in page 3 of this manual.
•
Place your clock radio on a level surface such as a table, desk or shelf, convenient
to an AC outlet, out of direct sunlight, and away from sources of excess heat, dirt,
dust, moisture, humidity, or vibration.
•
Unwind the AC power cord of the radio and extend it to its full length. The FM
antenna is built-in to this cord. It must be fully extended to provide the best FM
reception.
BATTERY BACK UP SYSTEM
The battery back up system in this clock radio will maintain the time and alarm settings
in the event of a temporary power interruption. When the AC power is restored the time
and alarm settings will be correct. If the AC power is off at your wake up time, the back
up system will use the battery power to turn on the radio or buzzer alarm as usual, as
long as the back up battery is installed and has sufficient power remaining.
The battery back up system requires one 9-volt battery (not included).
We recommend that you install an alkaline battery for longest life and best performance.
