•Follow all instructions.

•Do not use this apparatus near water.

•Clean only with dry cloth.

•Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.

•Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

•Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. A polarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong is provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.

•Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.

•Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.

•Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/ apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.

]

•Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.

•Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does

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 fits 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 fit, contact a qualified electrician to change the outlet, or use a different 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 off, 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 off 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

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.

Important battery precautions

•Any battery may present a risk of fire, 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.

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.

Auxiliary input

C.Deseche inmediatemente pilas con fuga. Estas pueden causar quemaduras a la piel otra herida personal. Cuando deseche las baterías asegúrese de deshacerse de ellas en una manera apropiada, de acuerdo con las regulaciones locales o del estado.

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 dificultad 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 calificado 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 locales.
