OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Powering Up
Plug the AC power cord into a 120V, 60Hz electrical outlet. The clock
display will light up and flash indicating the power is on.
NOTE:
This cord is polarized. This means the cord will only fit one
way into the socket or wall outlet. If it does not fit, do not force
it, just reverse it and try again.
BATTERY BACK-UP
If the AC cord is disconnected or if there is a short time power failure,
this electronic clock and timer are designed to continue operating
internally (without showing in the display) if a 9 volt battery (not included)
is installed.
The radio will work fine without this back up battery.
NOTE:
You may check the condition of the battery every few months
by disconnecting the AC cord and connecting it again 2 or 3
minutes later. The preset times will show. If the time flashes, it
indicates the battery is dead or not connected properly.
Setting the Clock
1. Press the TIME set button together with the HOUR set button until the
display shows the desired hour.
2. Press the TIME set button together with the MINUTE set button until
the display shows the desired minutes.

When the PM indicator is off, the time is AM.
Setting the Alarm Time
1. Use the ALARM/OFF button to check the alarm time.
2. Press the ALARM/OFF button together with the HOUR set button

morning.

normal time of day.
NOTE:
Again check the PM indicator. If you want the radio to wake
you in the morning, the lamp next to PM should be off on alarm
time (when pressing ALARM/OFF button). To change PM to
AM time, advance time 12 hours. To have clock wake you up,
slide the FUNCTION switch to AUTO or ALARM position(s).
