Thank you for purchasing this Emerson Space Saving AM/FM Clock Radio
with Dual Alarms.

The bright green LED display is designed to be highly visible and easily readable
from anywhere in your room. At the same time we have managed to minimize the
cabinet size so that the radio won’t take up too much space on your night table.

The dual alarms can be set and used independently. And since there are two separate
Radio/Buzzer selector switches, you can set one alarm to wake you to buzzer and
the other to wake you to radio if your wish. All of the controls are easy to see and
easy to use. The radio has a slide rule dial for easy tuning. The cloc k has fast
forward and slow reverse setting controls for quick and easy adjustments.

The Sure-Alarm battery back up system will remember the time and alarm settings
of cours e, but it can do more than that. As long as there is a fresh 9-volt battery
installed, the Sure-Alarm system will operate the radio or buzzer alarm to wake you
up even if the power is off at your normal wake up time.

We have taken great care to make sure that your radio was in perfect worki ng order
when it left our factory. It has been designed to give you many years of enjoyment
and trouble free operation. Should you experience any problems with the operation
or performance of this product please refer to the service and warranty information
at the end of this instruction manual.

Once again, from all of us at Emerson Radio Corp., thanks for your purchase.

For future reference, record the serial number in the space provided.

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.
