before use. If a power failure occurs or the AC cord is accidentally

disconnected, the display backlight will not remain lit, but current time and

alarm time settings will be temporarily maintained. Otherwise, you must reset

the time and alarm settings.

Note: The Battery Low icon is located at the left side of clock display.

When the backup battery is low and needs to be replaced, the Battery

Low icon will flash. To replace, follow steps below:
