CARE AND MAINTENANCE
supplying power to the SmartSet computer memory. Once you plug the radio in,
your household outlet supplies the power, and the battery is not being used. A fresh
lithium battery can supply power to the SmartSet computer for at least 3 years even
if it is never connected to an AC power supply. If your clock radio was connected to
your AC supply within a few months after it was manufactured, and you experience
only the normal, nuisance type, short duration power interruptions, your battery may
last for up to 5 years or even longer.
When
the
battery
power
drops
below
a
certain
level
,
the
LOW
BATT
.
indicator
will 'Flash'. When you see this indicator, you should change the battery as soon as
it is convenient for you to do so. To change the battery proceed as follows:
1.) Purchase a replacement 3V lithium battery wherever batteries are sold . The
battery type is
CR2032
or equivalent.
2.) Remove the battery from its package so it is ready to install.
If you do not change the built in lithium battery within a reasonable period of time
after you see the warning indicator, the lithium battery may become exhausted

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.
The initial default setting is "
12:00 AM, Sunday , January 1st (1. 1), 2012
".
If you notice that the time on your SmartSet clock radio is completely incorrect,
and the
DAY OF WEEK
indicator is also wrong, press the
MONTH/DATE
button to
see the date.
If the date display is showing "
1. 1
" (January 1st),
y o u p r o b a b l y e x p e r i e n c e d a t o t a l m e m o r y l o s s .
To reset the clock after a total memory loss, proceed
as follows:
1 .) Follow the instructions on page 10,11 and install a new
CR2032
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'.
