PREPARATION FOR USE
Unpacking and Set Up
• Carefully remove the unit from the display carton. Remove all the packing material
from the unit and remove any small strips of tape that may have been used to
prevent the CD door from opening in transit.
• Unwind the AC power cord and extend it to its full length.
• Unwind the FM antenna wire and extend it to its full length.
• This unit was shipped with a dummy CD transit card in the CD player. This
dummy CD prevents the laser pick up from moving during shipment. This card
must be removed before you can insert your own CDs. Open the CD door,
remove the transit card and discard it.
• Place the unit on a flat, level surface such as a table, desk, counter, shelf, etc,
convenient to a 120V 60 Hz AC outlet, out of direct sunlight, and away from
sources of excess heat, dust, moisture, or strong magnet fields.
Battery Back Up System
This model includes a battery back up circuit that will maintain the clock and alarm
settings in the event of a temporary power interruption. The battery back up system
requires one 9-Volt battery, not included. The battery compartment is located on
the bottom of the cabinet.
1.) Press the battery door-locking tab in the direction of the arrow and remove the
battery door.

CKD2300_060305.p65 3/6/2005, 11:044
2.) Connect a fresh 9-Volt alkaline battery to the battery terminal in the battery
compartment. It can only be connected one way.
3.) Replace the battery door.
If the power is interrupted the display will go ‘Off’ and the radio will not work. However
the battery will maintain the clock and alarm settings in memory. When the power
is restored the display will come on again and the clock and alarm settings will be
correct.
The life of the back up battery will depend on the frequency and length of the
power interruptions that you experience.
For best results we suggest you install a fresh battery every 9 to 12 months. Always
use a well-known brand of alkaline battery.

AC Outlet
Power Source
This radio is designed to operate on 120V 60Hz AC only. Attempting to operate
this radio on any other power source could cause damage to the unit and such
damage is not covered by your warranty.
Make sure the radio is connected to an AC outlet that is always “live”. Do not
connect the radio to an outlet that is controlled by a wall switch.
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 c leaning 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.
