Changing The Lithium Battery
Like all batteries, eventually the built in lithium battery will need to be replaced. A
number of factors, such as, the length of time between the date the radio was
manufactured and the date you plugged it in for the first time determine the amount
of time before replacement. During this initial storage period, the lithium battery is
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 2 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.
IMPORTANT:
Leave the AC adapter connected to your AC outlet.
This will provide power to the SmartSet computer memory while the original
lithium battery is removed.
3.) Turn the radio face up and use a small screw driver to remove the screw securing
the battery holder to the cabinet.
BE
CAREFUL
NOT
TO
LOSE
THIS
SMALL
SCREW
!
4.) Remove the original battery from the holder and insert the new battery into the
holder the same way, observing the positive (+) direction. Slide the holder with
the new battery back into the slot in the cabinet.
5.) Replace the screw that secures the battery holder in the cabinet.
OFF
6.) Turn
the
radio
right
side
up
and
confirm
that
the
LOW BATT
indicator is 'Off'.
7.) Save these instructions. You'll have to do this again five to eight years from
Now!
WARNING: DANGER OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERY IS INCORRECTLY REPLACED.
REPLACE ONLY WITH THE SAME OR EQUIVALENT TYPE.
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 warning indicator, the lithium battery may become exhausted
a n d w i l l n o l o n g e r b e a b l e t o s u p p l y b a c k u p p o w e r t o t h e S m a r t S e t i n t e r n a l
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.

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 11,12 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'.
While holding in the
MONTH/DATE

display to the correct Month and Date. The
DAY OF WEEK
indicator will change
automatically as you adjust the Month/Date settings. When the correct Month and

5.) Depress the
TIME
button and the
/

button to set the display to the
correct Time. Be sure to confirm that you have set the time correctly to 'AM'
or 'PM' b y observing the

indicator.
6.) After you set the Time, reconfirm that the Day, and Month/Date displays are
still correct. Make final adjustments if necessary.
The SmartSet clock memory is now reset and the new lithium battery will maintain
it for the next 5 years, depending on the number and duration of the power
outages you experience.
