OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

SETTING THE CLOCK

When you connect the radio to your AC outlet for the first time the clock display
will begin flashing “12:00” (AM). The flashing will stop when you set the time.

1.

Depress the Clock button and either the Fast Forward 

 or Fast Reverse

 buttons to rapidly move the time display forward or back.

2.

As the display approaches the correct time release fast setting buttons and
depress the Slow Forward 

 or Slow Reverse 

 buttons until the correct time

appears, then release all buttons.

Note: Be sure to observe the AM indicator to make sure that the time is set
correctly for AM or PM. If the AM indicator is ‘on’, the time displayed is “AM”. If
the AM indicator is ‘off’, the time displayed is “PM”.

SETTING THE WAKE UP TIMES

This clock radio has two separate alarms that can be set and used independently.
You may use the alarms to wake two people at different times, or you may use
one alarm for weekdays and the other for weekend wake up times. The procedure
for adjusting the wake up time is the same for both Alarm 1 and Alarm 2.

will change from the correct time to the Alarm 1 or Alarm 2 wake up time.

Forward 

 or Fast Reverse 

 button to move the display rapidly ahead or

buttons and depress the Slow Forward 

 or Slow Reverse 

 buttons until the

desired wake up time appears, then release all buttons.
