servicing techniques. For instructions on how to obtain service, refer to the warranty
included in this Guide.
FCC Information
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two
conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) this device must accept any
interference received, including interference that
may cause undesired operation.
In accordance with FCC requirements, changes or
modifications not expressly approved by Thomson
Inc. could void the user’s authority to operate this
product.
This device generates and uses radio frequency
(RF) energy, and if not installed and used properly,
this equipment may cause interference to radio
and television reception.
If this equipment does cause interference to radio
or television reception (which you can determine
by unplugging the unit), try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following
measures:
• Re-orient the receiving antenna (that is, the
antenna for the radio or television that is
“receiving” the interference).
• Move the unit away from the equipment that is
receiving interference.
• Plug the unit into a different wall outlet so that
the unit and the equipment receiving interference
are on different branch circuits.
If these measures do not eliminate the
interference, please consult your dealer or an
experienced radio/television technician for
additional suggestions. Also, the Federal
Communications Commission has prepared a
helpful booklet, “How To Identify and Resolve
Radio TV Interference Problems.” This booklet is
available from the U.S. Government Printing
Office, Washington, DC 20402. Please specify stock

Operating the Clock
This clock radio is equipped with a memory
EN
holding system that can be powered with
9V battery (not included). The power
failure protection circuit will not operate
unless battery is installed.
When normal household power is
interrupted, or AC cord is unplugged, the
battery will power the clock radio to keep
track of time and alarm settings
programmed into the memory. When the
battery backup functions, the digital
display will not light, however, the
function of alarm 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 the
alarm.
Install battery as below:
1. Remove battery compartment door
(located at the bottom of the radio) by
applying thumb pressure to area
indicated on battery door and then lift
the door out and off the cabinet.
2. Connect a 9V battery to the connector
plug.
3. Insert battery in the compartment and
replace the compartment door.

as the final reference on all product and operational details should any discrepancies arise in

Power Failure Indicator
When the AC power is interrupted
(disconnected) for a short period of time,
both time and alarm settings will change

Digital Display will blink to indicate that
power was interrupted and you should
re-adjust the time and alarm settings.

(AFC) works only on FM. It helps reducing
drift on FM reception and keeping the
radio locked in on the FM station to which
it is tuned.
When tuning in FM stations, you may
notice that the station you are tuning can
be well-tuned on two or three nearby
points on the dial. Always tune carefully
at the loudest and clearest point.

Antennas
AM Antenna - A built-in ferrite rod
antenna eliminates the need for an outside antenna for AM reception. Rotating
the unit slightly may improve the reception of distant AM stations.
FM antenna - The power cord acts as your
FM antenna. It picks up moderate to
strong stations and eliminates the need for
an external antenna in most strong signal
areas. Be sure the power cord is stretched
to its full length. Do not coil or bunch the
cord together. Changing position of the
power cord may improve reception.
