BATTERY OPERATION
• Open the lid of the battery compartment (found at rear of unit)
• Insert 4 x R14/size C batteries. Ensuring correct polarity is observed.
• Close the battery compartment lid. (These batteries serve as a power
supply for radio operation without mains connection.
Back up batteries for clock and preset memory
• Place these batteries size RO3, AAA, alkaline type in the battery
compatment. These batteries should always be inserted, regardless of the
power supply (mains voltage or batteries).
If the unit is not to be used for a prolonged period, remove the batteries to
avoid leakage. In the interests of environmental safety, dispose of batteries
safely.
MAINS FAILURE
If the back-up batteries are fitted, the clock will continue to operate during
mains failure and the preset stations will be retained in the memory.
However, the display will not be illuminated and the alarm will not sound
unless the mains supply is restored within 90 minutes of the preset alarm
time.
MAINS OPERATION
The unit is designed to operate from a mains supply of 230v 50/60Hz.
• Connect one plug of the mains lead to the AC socket and the other
to the radio.The internal batteries will be automatically isolated.
Notes:
• Switch off the radio when connecting or disconnecting the mains cable.
• Remove the AC plug from the unit to use on the batteries.
The unit is only fully isolated from the mains when the wall plug is removed
from the wall socket.
If the socket outlets in your home are not suitable for the plug supplied
with this appliance the plug should be removed and the appropriate one
fitted.
IMP0RT ANT : THE PLUG REMOVED FROM THE MAINS LEAD, IF
SEVERED, MUST BE DESTROYED AS A PLUG WITH A BARED FLEXIBLE CORD IS HAZARDOUS IF ENGAGED INTO A LIVE SOCKET
OUTLET.
Should the fuse in the 13 amp mains plug require changing a 3 amp
BS1362 fuse must be fitted. The socket outlet should be installed near the
equipment and shall be easily accessible.
