Before you begin
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 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 t, contact a
quali ed electrician to change the
outlet, or use a di erent one.
• Do not attempt to bypass this
safety feature.
• Power is fed to the unit even when
it is not functioning. To cut the
power supply o , the power cable
must be unplugged.
Battery back-up operation
• This clock radio is equipped with a
memory holding system that can
be powered with 2 “AA” batteries
(included).
• The power failure protection circuit
will not operate unless battery is
installed.
• When normal household power
is interrupted, or AC line cord
is unplugged, the batteries will
power the clock radio to keep
track of time and alarm settings
programmed into 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.
To install the batteries:
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 o the
cabinet.
2. Insert 2 AA batteries (included).
3. Replace the compartment door.
Note: we recommend that you replace
the batteries every year.
Power failure indicator

(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.
Important battery

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 reception of distant AM
stations.
• FM Antenna – The power cord
acts as your FM antenna. The
power cord 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
out to its full length. Do not
coil or bunch the cord together.
Changing position of the power
cord may improve reception.
• Built-In AFC – The Built In
Automatic Frequency Control
(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.

Antes de comenzar
Conexión a la red
FUENTE DE ALIMENTACIÓN CA:
120V~60Hz
• El adaptador de
corriente CA está
polarizado (una de
sus patas es más
grande que la otra)
y sólo encajará en salidas de
potencia CA de una manera.
• Si tiene usted di cultad en
introducir el adaptador en la caja
del tomacorriente en su totalidad,
intente cambiar la posición del
adaptador.
• Si aún así no consigue encajarlo,
contacte a un electricista cali cado
para que sustituya la caja del
tomacorriente, o utilice una
diferente.
• No intente pasar desapercibido
estas normas de seguridad.
• La electricidad sigue pasando a
la unidad incluso cuando esta
está apagada. Para cortar la
alimentación, desenchufe el cable.
Pila de Seguridad
• Este radio reloj está equipado con
un sistema de mantenimiento de
memoria que se puede alimentar
con 2 pilas “AA” (incluidas).
• El circuito de protección contra
caídas de tensión no funcionará a
menos que se instale la pila.
• Cuando se produce una
interrupción en el suministro
eléctrico normal, o el cable de
suministro AC está desenchufado,
la pila de seguridad suministra la
energía al radio reloj para que se
mantengan los ajustes del reloj y
de la alarma programados en la
memoria.
• Cuando el mantenimiento de
la memoria mediante la pila
de seguridad está actuando, la
función alarma todavía funciona
durante la interrupción eléctrica,
siempre que el nivel de carga de
las pilas sea adecuado
• El funcionamiento normal se
reanudará tras restablecer el
suministro eléctrico de modo que
Vd. no tendrá que reajustar el reloj
ni la alarma.
Instale la batería como sigue:
1. Retire la tapa del compartimiento
(en la parte inferior de la unidad),
apretando el pasador con el pulgar
y retirando la tapa.
2. Inserte 2 baterías AA (incluidas)
3. Reemplace la puerta del
compartimento.
Sin embargo, las baterías pueden
acabarse también y le recomendamos
que las sustituya cada año.
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.
Precauciones importantes
para la batería
• Cualquier batería puede presentar
un riesgo de fuego, explosión
o quemadura química si es mal
tratada. No trate de cargar una
batería que no esté diseñada para
ser recargada, no incinere y no
perfore.
• Baterías no recargables, tales como
las baterías alcalinas, pueden
tener fugas si son dejadas en su
producto por un largo periodo
de tiempo. Retire las baterías del
producto si usted no lo va a usar
por un mes o más.
• Si su producto usa más de
una batería, no mezcle tipos
y asegúrese de que estén
insertadas correctamente. Mezclar
tipos de baterías o insertarlas
incorrectamente puede causar que
tengan fugas.
• Deseche inmediatamente cualquier
batería con fugas o deformada.
Ellas pueden causar quemaduras
de la piel u otra lesión personal.
• Por favor ayude a proteger el
ambiente reciclando o eliminando
las baterías de conformidad con las
regulaciones federales, estatales y
