Battery Back-Up System
This clock radio is equipped with a back up system that is
powered by two customer-installed "AA" alkaline batteries
(not incjuded). The backup circuit will not operate unless
batteries are installed.
When normal household current is interrupted, or the AC
line cord is unplugged, the batteries power the clock to
keep track of time, alarm and calendar settings. Should
wake-up time occur during the power interruption, the
alarm will sound for 2 minutes, if remaining battery power
is adequate. If Snooze is pressed during the 2-minute
alarm time period, the alarm will go off and come on again
in approximately 9 minutes. Normal operation will resume
after AC power is restored so you will not have to reset
time, alarm or calendar settings.
Note: The display will remain lit' during battery back-up
when batteries are fresh. The display will gradually fade as
the batteries weaken.
Install batteries as follows:
1. Open the battery compartment door located on the
bottom of the radio.
