TALKING TIMER, 810038
INSTRUCTIONS
INTRODUCTION: Features include a talking count
down timer, a count up timer and a talking clock. These
functions are independent and will operate either
separately or simultaneously. In addition, choose from
six different alarm sounds. The timer’s memory feature
allows you to store your most frequently used count
down time. An automatic repeat function allows you to
restart any count down as many times as desired. This
feature is particularly useful for repetitive activities such
as checking experiments at regular intervals. The timer
is designed with an easel back for desktop use, a
magnet for attaching to metal surfaces, and a clip for
belt attachment.
FIRST USE: Slide open the battery compartment located beneath the belt clip and remove the plastic tab
between the battery and the contact point.
