Power supply
Battery operation
• Insert 2 ААA batteries (not included)
to the terminals inside the battery
compartment according to the polarity marks
(+ and -). Your set will have a limited
operation from the battery supply, but there is
now the advantage that, in case of a mains
current failure or power outage, your clock will
continue to work. The clock display will not
light up, the clock time and alarm setting will
be held in the clock memory by the battery
back-up system.
This enables you to move the set from place
to place without re-setting the clock every time.
The battery back-up system is only meant to
be used for short-term power failures. For
longer durations the batteries may become
exhausted or there may be some deviation in
accuracy.

When the batteries are exhausted, they
check that the voltage indicated on the rating
label corresponds to the mains voltage in your
location.
