PREPARATION
Connecting to AC Power
Plug the clock’s power cord into a standard AC outlet.
The display flashes when you first plug
in the clock or when the power is interrupted and the back-up battery is weak
or missing. When you set the time, the
display stops flashing.
Installing the Backup Battery
• The backup battery only powers
the clock (not the light).
Follow these steps to install the backup battery.
1. Press the tab and remove the battery compartment cover.
2. Snap the battery onto the terminals and place it inside the battery
compartment.
3. Replace the cover.
OPERATION
To keep the clock running during an
AC power failure, install a 9-volt alkaline battery. We recommend Radio
Shack Cat. No. 23-553.
Notes:
• To prevent unnecessary battery
drain, install the battery after you
connect the radio to AC power.
• If the BATTERY SENTINEL indicator lights after an AC power failure, or when you press
the battery is too low to power the
clock. Replace the batt ery and set
the time.
