UNPACKING AND SET UP
•
Remove the clock radio from the carton and remove all packing material from
the clock radio. We suggest that you save the packing material, if possible, in
the unlikely event that your radio ever needs to be returned for service. The
original carton and packing material is the only safe way to pack your radio to
protect it from damage in transit.
•
Remove any descriptive labels or stickers on the front or top of the cabinet. Do
not remove any labels or stickers from the back or bottom of the cabinet.
•
Note the serial number on the bottom of your radio and write this number in the
space provided on Page 2 of this manual.
•
Place your clock radio on a level surface such as a table, desk or shelf, convenient
to an AC outlet, out of direct sunlight, and away from sources of excess heat,
dirt, dust, moisture, humidity, or vibration.
•
Unwind the AC power cord and extend it to its full length. The FM antenna is
built in to this cord. It must be fully extended to provide the best FM reception.
SURE-ALARM BATTERY BACK UP SYSTEM
The Sure-Alarm battery back up system in this clock radio will maintain the time
and alarm settings in the event of a temporary power interruption. When the power
is restored the time and alarm settings will be correct. If the power is off at your
wake up time, the Sure-Alarm system will use the battery power to turn on the
radio or buzzer alarm as usual, as long as the back up battery is installed and has
sufficient power remaining.
The Sure-Alarm battery back up system requires one 9-volt battery, not included.
We recommend that you install an alkaline battery for longest life and best
performance.
