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 the Warranty page of this manual.
Place your radio on a level surface such as a table, desk or shelf, convenient to anAC 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.
Protect Your Furniture
This model is equipment with non-skid rubber ‘feet’ to prevent the product from moving when you operate the controls. These ‘feet’ are made 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 store 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.
Power Source
This radio designed to operate on normal 120V 60Hz AC power only. Do not attempt to operate the radio on any other power source. You could cause damage to the radio that is not covered by your warranty.
This radio should be connected to an AC outlet that is always ‘live’. Do not connect it to an outlet that is controlled by a wall switch. When the power to the radio is interrupted, the built in lithium battery takes over to maintain the time and alarm settings. To maximize the life of the lithium battery keep the radio connected to a ‘live’AC outlet at all times.
You will note that this system is equipped with a polarized AC power plug having one blade wider than the other. This is a safety feature. If this
plug does not fit into your existing AC outlet, do not try to defeat this safety feature by filing the wide blade to make it fit into your outlet.
If this plug will not fit into your outlet, you probably have an out-dated non-polarized AC outlet. You should have your outlet changed by a qualified licensed electrician.
Sure Alarm battery Back-Up System
This SmartSet ®Clock Radio includes a Sure Alarm battery back-up circuit that can wake you up even if the power is ‘off’ at the selected wake up time. If your power is ‘off’ at the selected wake up time the clock display will be off and the radio will not operate, but a separate mini-buzzer will turn ‘on’ automatically to wake you up, even if you had selected the “Wake to Radio” option.
The Sure Alarm will sound for 30 seconds and then shut off automatically. To stop the Sure Alarm buzzer immediately, press the RADIO ON/OFF button. Press the SNOOZE button has no effect during Sure Alarm operation.
NOTE: In order to maximize the life of the built in lithium battery, please be sure to set the ALARM 1 and ALARM 2 switches to the ‘OFF’ position if the radio will be disconnected from the AC outlet for more than a few hours. This will prevent the Sure Alarm from turning ‘On’ unnecessarily.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Setting The Time, The First Time
IMPORTANT: The first time you connect your new SmartSet ®clock radio to the AC outlet the internal computer will automatically set the time correctly for the Eastern Time Zone, which is the initial default setting. The display will scan for a few seconds and then show the correct Day and Time in the Eastern zone. If you live in the Eastern Time zone, there is nothing else to do. Your clock is set correctly and running.
If you do not live in the Eastern Time zone you must change the default zone display to your own zone. You only do this one time and the SmartSet®will remember the new default zone setting and will always return to that setting after a power interruption.
There are 7 time zones programmed into your SmartSet®clock radio as follows:
ZONE 1 |
-- Atlantic Time |
ZONE 5 |
– Pacific Time |
ZONE 2 |
– Eastern Time (Default setting) |
ZONE 6 |
– Yukon Time |
ZONE 3 |
-- Central Time |
ZONE 7 |
– Hawaiian Time |
ZONE 4 |
– Mountain Time |
|
|
To change the default time zone display, depress the TIME ZONE button. The number “2” will appear on the display indicating that the default zone is ZONE 2, Eastern Time.
Hold the TIME ZONE button and then press either the SET + or – button until your own time zone appears on the display, then release the buttons. The clock display will change to the correct time in the time zone you selected. The clock will always return to the correct time in the zone you selected after every power interruption.
If you move to a different time zone, simply change the default zone display to the new zone and the SmartSet ® will remember that setting for you.
Date Display
To see the correct date at any time, depress the MONTHE/DATE button. The display changes from time to Month and Date (MM/DD).
For example, May 21st will appear “5.21”.
When you release the MONTH/DATE button, the display will return to the correct time.
Year Display
To see the correct year, depress the MONTH/DATE and TIME buttons together.
The display changes from time to year.
When you release the MONTH/DATE and TIME buttons the display returns to the correct time.
Day Of Week Display
Press the SNOOZE button to show day of week, for example, today is Monday, the display will appear “d 1”. (“d” instead of “day of week”, “1” instead of Monday.)

Daylight Saving and Leap Year Adjustments
All Daylight Saving and Leap Year adjustments are made automatically by the SmartSet ®internal computer as follows:
Start of Daylight Saving Time:
At “2:00 AM” on the 2nd Sunday in March, the clock will automatically advance to “3:00 AM”.
End of Daylight Saving Time:
At “3:00AM” on the 1st Sunday in November, the clock will automatically reset to “2:00 AM”.
Leap Year:
At “12:00 Midnight” on February 28th, the calendar display will change to “2.29”.
Manual Time Adjustments
Some people like to set their clocks 5 to 10 minutes fast to make sure that they will always be on time. Even though the SmartSet ®sets the time by itself, you still have the option of adjusting the time manually if you wish.
To manually adjust the time display depress and hold the TIME button, and press either the SET + or – button to adjust the time display ahead or back as desired.
Each press of the SET + or – button will change the display by one minute. If you hold the SET + or – buttons the display will continue to change. The display will change slowly at first, one minute at a time. But if you continue holding the SET + or – buttons the display will change rapidly.
NOTE: If you manually adjust the time, your new setting is entered into the SmartSet ®memory. If the power is interrupted, the display will return to your new setting, not the original setting, when the power is restored.
Adjusting The Wake Up Times
Your SmartSet®clock radio has two separate alarms that can be set and used independently. You may use the alarms to wake two people at different times, or you may use one alarm for weekdays and the other for weekend wake up times. The procedure for adjusting the wake up time is the same for both Alarm 1 and Alarm 2.
1.Press and hold either the ALARM 1 or ALARM 2 setting button.
The display will change from the correct time to the Alarm 1 or Alarm 2 wake up time.
2.While holding the ALARM 1 or ALARM 2 setting button, depress either the SET + or – button to move the display ahead or back to your desired wake up time.
3.When the desired wake up time appears on the display, release the SET+ or – button.
NOTE: Be sure that you have set the wake up time correctly by observing the AM indicator. If the AM indicator is ‘On’, the wake up time is “AM”. If the AM indicator is ‘off’, the wake up time is “PM”.
4.When the desired wake up time (AM or PM) appears on the display, release the ALARM 1 or ALARM 2 setting buttons.
