FCC information

This equipment has been tested and
found to comply with the limits for a Class
B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of FCC
Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation.
This equipment generates, uses, and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if
not installed and used in accordance
with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications.

However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause
harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined
by turning the equipment off and on,
the user is encouraged to try to correct
the interference by one or more of the
following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving
antenna.

• Increase the separation between the
equipment and receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet
on a circuit different from that to

For your records

In the event that service should be
required, you may need the model

Plugging in for power

AC OUTLET POWER SUPPLY:
120V~60Hz

The AC power plug is polarized (one
blade is wider than the other) and only
fi ts into AC power outlets one way.
If the plug will not go into the outlet
completely, turn the plug over and try
to insert it the other way. If it still does
not fi t, contact a qualifi ed electrician
to change the outlet, or use a different
one. Do not attempt to bypass this
safety feature.

Battery back-up operation

• The power failure protection circuit
will not operate unless battery is
installed.

• When the battery backup functions,
the digital display will not light,
however, the wake function
still occurs during the power
interruption if remaining battery
power is adequate.

• Normal operation will resume after
AC power is restored so you will not
have to reset the time or wake.

Install battery as follow:

1. Remove battery compartment door
(located at the bottom of the radio)
by applying thumb pressure to the
tab on battery door and then lift
the door out and off the cabinet.

2. Connect a 9-volt battery (not
supplied) to the connector plug.

3. Replace the compartment door.

Power failure indicator

When AC power is interrupted
(disconnected) for a short period of
time, both time and alarm settings
will change (unless battery is
installed). After AC power is restored
(reconnected), the Digital Display
will blink to indicate that power was
interrupted and you should readjust the
time and alarm settings.

• Power is fed to the unit
even when it is not
functioning. To cut the
power supply off, the power
cable must be unplugged.

• Alkaline (NEDA 1604A/IEC
6LR61) battery is recommended.
Carbon-zinc battery may be
used but memory holding time
will be substantially reduced.
Memory holding time for a fresh
alkaline battery is approximately
8 hours (if radio or alarm are not
operated) which should take care
of short, nuisance-type AC power
failures. To preserve battery life,
the unit should remain plugged
into an AC outlet. As the battery
gets older, its voltage drops and
memory may be lost. Be sure to
replace the battery periodically.
Battery should be removed if the
unit will be stored for more than
one month. Leaky battery can
badly damage the clock radio.

Setting clock time

1. Slide the switch SET / / to
position.

2. Press

REV or FWD to set the

clock time on the large display.

• The time decrements or increments

will follow by a faster rate when
you press and hold the buttons.

• The “:” between hour and minute

time fl ashes when you are setting
the time. AM or PM icon will also
show beside the time.

3. Slide the switch SET / / to

position.

Important Battery Precautions

• Any battery may present a risk of
fi re, explosion, or chemical burn
if abused. Do not try to charge a
battery that is not intended to be
recharged, do not incinerate, and
do not puncture.

• Non-rechargeable batteries, such as
alkaline batteries, may leak if left in
your product for a long period of
time. Remove the batteries from the
product if you are not going to use
it for a month or more.

• If your product uses more than one
battery, do not mix types and make
sure they are inserted correctly.
Mixing types or inserting incorrectly
may cause them to leak.

• Discard any leaky or deformed
battery immediately. They may
cause skin burns or other personal
injury.

• Please help to protect the
environment by recycling or
disposing of batteries according to
federal, state, and local regulations.

• Do not expose batteries to excessive
heat (for example, by leaving them
in sunlight or close to fi re).

Conexión a la red

FUENTE DE ALIMENTACIÓN CA:
120 V ca – 60 Hz

La toma de alimentación CA está
polarizada (una de las clavijas es más
ancha que la otra) y solo encaja en la
toma de alimentación CA en un sentido.
Si la clavija no encaja completamente
en el enchufe, dé la vuelta a la clavija e
insértela de la otra forma. Si sigue sin
encajar, póngase en contacto con un
electricista califi cado para que cambia
el enchufe o utilice uno distinto. No
intente puentear este dispositivo de
seguridad.

Operación de batería de
respaldo

• El circuito de protección de
interrupción de energía no
funcionará a menos que la batería
esté instalada.

• Al utilizar la unidad con las pilas
de reserva, el display digital no se
iluminará, pero la función de alarma
se activará de todos modos durante
el corte de electricidad, si las pilas
tienen sufi ciente potencia.

• Al reestablecer la alimentación, se
reanuda el funcionamiento normal,
por lo que no tendrá que volver a
ajustar la hora ni la alarma.

Indicador de fallo de
alimentación

Si se interrumpe la alimentación
(desconexión) durante un breve
periodo de tiempo, cambiará el
ajuste de la hora y de la alarma
(a menos que estén instaladas las
pilas). Cuando se restablezca la
alimentación (reconexión), el display
digital parpadeará para indicar que
se ha interrumpido la alimentación y
que debe volver a ajustar la hora y la
alarma.

Instalación de las pilas:

1. Retire la tapa del compartimiento
(en la parte inferior de la unidad),
apretando el pasador con el pulgar
y retirando la tapa.

2. Conecte una batería de 9 voltios
(no suministrada) a la entrada del
conector.

3. Reubique la puerta del
compartimiento.

• La electricidad sigue
pasando a la unidad incluso
cuando ésta está apagada.
Para cortar la alimentación,
desenchufe el cable.

• Se recomiendan baterías alcalinas
(6LR61/NEDA 1604A). La batería
de carbón-zinc puede ser usada
pero el tiempo de retención en
memoria será substancialmente
reducido. El tiempo de retención
en memoria para una batería
alcalina fresca nueva es de
aproximadamente ocho horas
(si el radio o la alarma no son
operados) lo cual debería ser
sufi ciente para molestas fallas
de energía CA del tipo de corta
duración. Para preservar la vida
de la batería, la unidad debería
permanecer conectada a una
toma de corriente CA. Conforme
la batería pierde energía, su
voltaje cae y la memoria se puede
perder. Asegúrese de reemplazar
la batería periódicamente. La
batería debería ser retirada si la
unidad será almacenada por más
de un mes. Una batería con fuga
puede dañar seriamente el radio
reloj.
