General

Do not allow this unit to be exposed to water or steam. It is recommended that the FM band be used wherever possible as better results in terms of quality and freedom from interference will usually be obtained than on the MW band.

Mains supply

The CR9916 will operate from a supply of AC 230volts, 50Hz only. For your convenience this product is supplied with a plug which is fitted with

a fuse of the appropriate rating. If the plug supplied is not suitable for your socket outlet, it should be removed by unscrewing the plug top, the terminal screws and removing the cable.

The correct style of plug to suit your household together with a correctly rated fuse should be fitted.

IF IN DOUBT - CONSULT A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN IMPORTANT. DO NOT make any connection to the larger terminal which is marked with the letter E or by the safety earth symbol or coloured

Green or Green-and-yellow. The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following

codes :-

BLUE - NEUTRAL BROWN - LIVE

As these colours may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:-

Fuse

This apparatus must be protected by a 3A fuse (BS1362) in a 13A plug (BS1363). If another type of plug is used a 5A fuse should be fitted in the plug, adaptor or distribution board.

IF IN DOUBT - CONSULT A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.

Back-up Battery (not necessary for the unit to function)

Slide the battery cover catch in the direction of the arrow. Open the battery cover. Fit a 9 volt IEC size 6LR61 (6F22, PP3) or equivalent battery into the compartment. Observe the correct polarity as shown on battery cover.

The time and alarm settings will be retained during a temporary failure of the AC mains supply. The LED display will not be operational. The display will be extinguished to conserve battery life, but the memory will retain details of the time and alarm time settings.

If your clock radio is not to be used for a prolonged period of time, remove the battery to avoid damage by battery leakage.
