MAINS CONNECTIONS:
MAINS OUTLET POWER SUPPL Y: 120V ~60Hz Note:
Power is fed to the unit even when it is not functioning. To cut the power supply off, the power cable must be unplugged.
For Your Safety
The AC power plug is polarized (one blade is wider than the other) and only fits into AC power outlets one way. If the plug won’t go into the outlet completely, turn the plug over and try to insert it the other way. If it still won’t fit, contact a qualified electrician to change the outlet, or use a different one. Do not attempt to bypass this safety feature.
Protection against mains power failures:
-- Connect a 9-volt battery (6LR61 or NEDA 1604A)
-- When the battery is used up, the digits flash on and off when the power comes back on
NOTE: Alkaline (6LR61/NEDA 1604A) batteries are recommended. Carbon­zinc 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.
