Power Source

AC Outlet

This system is designed to operate on 120V AC 60Hz house current only.
Connecting this system to any other power source may cause damage to the
system and such damage is not covered by your warranty.

NOTE: The system has polarized AC plug with one wide blade and one narrow
blade. The plug will only fit into matching polarized AC outlets .

This is a safety feature to reduce the possibility of electric shock. If the plug will not
fit in your AC outlet, you probably have an outdated non-polarized outlet. You should
have your outdated outlet changed by a qualified, licensed electrician. Do not file
the wide blade on the plug, or use an adapter to make the plug fit into your outlet.
This defeats the safety feature and could expose you to electric shock.

AC Plug

Protect Your Furniture

This model is equipped with non-skid rubber ‘feet’ to prevent the product from
moving when you operate the controls. These ‘feet’ are made from non-migrating
rubber material specially formulated to avoid leaving any marks or stains on your
furniture. However certain types of oil based furniture polishes, wood preservatives,
or cleaning sprays may cause the rubber ‘feet’ to soften, and leave marks or a
rubber residue on the furniture. To prevent any damage to your furniture we strongly
recommend that you purchase small self-adhesive felt pads, available at hardware
stores and home improvement centers everywhere, and apply these pads to the
bottom of the rubber ‘feet’ before you place the product on fine wooden furniture.

Battery Back Up System

This unit uses a single 9-Volt battery (not included) to maintain the time and alarm
settings in the event that it is accidentally unplugged, or you experience a temporary
power failure. We recommend that you install a well-known brand of Alkaline battery
for longest life and best performance. To keep the battery back up system operational
you should install a new battery every 6 to 9 months.

To install the back up battery, turn the unit upside down.

1.) Press on the small tab to remove the battery

door.

2.) Connect the battery to the battery

terminal.

3.) Push the battery back into the

compartment and replace the battery
door.

If the power is interrupted the clock display will go off but the battery will maintain
the clock and alarm time settings. When power is restored the time display will be
correct and your alarm setting will also be maintained.

If you notice that the time display is completely wrong you probably experienced a
power failure with a weak or exhausted battery in the compartment. Reset the
clock and replace the battery as soon as possible.
