(UM-4) batteries (not included).
BATTERY BACK-UP SYSTEM
The Battery Back-up System ensures the clock and alarm settings will be retained during a
power interruption or power outage (in order to preserve the battery life the Display will not
light). All clock settings will be kept in memory, however, the clock time may require
adjustment for exact accuracy once the power returns. If the batteries are not installed, the
Display will blink”12:00” when the power is restored. This will indicate that you have to reset
the time and alarm settings.
BATTERY INSTALLATION
1. Open the battery compartment door on the bottom of the cabinet.
2. Follow the polarity diagram shown inside the compartment and Install 2 X “AAA” size
batteries (not included).
3. Replace the Battery Compartment Door.
IMPORTANT: Be sure that the batteries are installed correctly. Wrong polarity may
damage the unit.
NOTE: Only use a well-known brand of battery to ensure longest life and best performance.
