wish. All of the controls are easy to see and easy to use. The radio has a slide rule
dial for easy tuning.

PREPARATION FOR USE
Unpacking And Set Up
•Remove the radio from the carton and remove all packing material from the
radio. We suggest that you save the packing material, if possible, in the unlikely
event that your radio ever needs to be returned for service. The original carton
and packing material is the only safe way to pack your radio to protect it from
damage in transit.
•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 on Page 2 of this manual.
•Place your 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 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.
Sure-Alarm Battery Back Up System
The Sure-Alarm battery back up system in this radio will maintain the time and
alarm settings in the event of a temporary power interruption. When the power is
restored the time and alarm settings will be correct. If the power is off at your wake
up time, the Sure-Alarm 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 Sure-Alarm 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.

Power Failure Iindicator
If no battery is installed in the radio, or if the battery in the compartment is weak or
dead, the time and alarm settings will be lost if the power is interrupted.

will begin flashing. This is your indication that
the time display is incorrect and needs to be
reset.

After you reset the time, be sure to reset your alarm settings as well.
