Resetting The Clock After A Total Memory Loss
If you do not change the built in lithium battery within a reasonable period of time
after you see the ‘flashing’
LOW BATT.
warning indicator, the lithium battery may
become exhausted and will no longer be able to supply back up power to the
SmartSet
®
internal computer. If the unit is disconnected from the AC outlet after
the battery is exhausted, or if a power interruption occurs, the SmartSet
®
memory
will be lost and the clock will need to be reset when the power is restored.
Be sure to install a fresh lithium battery before you reset the clock, otherwise the
clock will need to be reset each time the power is interrupted.
If the lithium battery is exhausted and you experience an interruption in the AC
power supply, the clock will reset itself to its initial default setting when the power is
restored.
The initial default setting is “
12:00 AM, Saturday, January 1
st
(1 1), 2005
”.
If you notice that the time on your SmartSet
®
clock radio is completely incorrect,
and the Day indicator is also wrong, press the
MONTH/DATE
button to see the
Date.
If the Date display is showing “
1 1
” (January 1
st
),
you probably experienced a total memory loss.
To reset the clock after a total memory loss, proceed as follows:
1.) Follow the instructions on pages 17, 18 and install a new
CR2430
lithium battery
in the battery compartment.
2.) Connect the radio to your AC outlet and let the clock set itself.
3.) Depress the
MONTH/DATE
and
TIME
buttons together. The display will change
from ‘Time’ to ‘Year’.
While holding the
MONTH/DATE
and
TIME
buttons, press the
SET
(Up)
button to set the display to the correct year, then release the buttons.
