Thank you… … …

for purchasing this Emerson dual alarm stereo clock radio CD player with 20 track

programmable memory. The dual alarm system can be used to wake two people

at two different times, or use one alarm for weekdays and the other for weekend

wake-ups. In addition you have the choice of waking to an electronic ‘Buzzer’

alarm, the AM/FM radio, or your favorite CD. You can also fall asleep to music –

either radio or CD – and the system will shut itself off automatically.

Of course there’s also a battery back up system to maintain your clock and alarm

settings in the event of a power interruption.

This system was designed to give you many years of enjoyment with an absolute

minimum of care and maintenance. Please read this Owners Manual carefully

and completely to ensure that you get the maximum benefit from all the outstanding

features we have included in this product. If you encounter any problem with the

set up or operation of this model please do not return it to the retail store. Please

call the Emerson Customer Service Hotline toll free at 1-800-898-9020. One of

our service technicians will try to diagnose the problem for you.

Once again thanks for choosing this Emerson audio product.
