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
(main display) 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 in main display 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 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 it initial default setting when the power is restored.
The initial default setting is “
12:00AM, TUESDAY, January 1
st
(1.1), 2008”.
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 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 “Changing the lithium battery “ item 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. Press 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
button to set the
display to the correct year, and then release the buttons.
4. Press the
MONTH/DATE
button. The display will change from ‘Time’ to ‘
MONTH/DATE
’
(MM/DD).
While
holding the
MONTH/DATE
button, press the
SET
button to set the 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 Date appear on the display, release the
buttons.
5. Press the
TIME
button and the
SET
button to set the display to the correct Time. Be sure
to confirm that you have set the time correctly to ‘AM’ or ‘PM’ by observing the
AM
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.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
After resetting the clock, don’t forget to reset your wake up times, and alarm
mode settings, and sleep timer settings as well.
