Eco power saving mode
The radio has an extra low-power energy saving mode for when the radio is in
standby. The use of the Eco power saving mode allows the radio to keep its internal
clock running for days or even weeks while powered from its batteries so that the
alarm function can be used without mains power being required.
When the Eco power saving mode has been activated, the radio will minimise its
power consumption and the backlight and clock will not be displayed.
You will still be able to use the On/Off, Alarm 1 and Alarm 2 buttons and the clock
and alarms will continue to function.
The Tuning/Select control can be pressed briefl y to cause the radio to display the
time for a few seconds.
When the Eco power saving mode is enabled there will be a short delay in response
to the On/Off, Alarm 1, Alarm 2 and Tuning/Select controls while the radio wakes up.
