PREPARATION FOR USE
SURE-ALARM BATTERY BACK UP SYSTEM
This clock radio includes a battery back up system that will maintain the correct time
and alarm settings in case of a temporary power interruption. As long as the battery
has sufficient power, it will also operate the Radio or Buzzer alarm to wake you up
even if the power is ‘Off’ at your normal wake up time. The battery back up system
requires one 9 volt battery,(not included). We recommend you use an alkaline
battery for longest life.
• Open the battery compartment door, located on the back of the radio cabinet.
• Gently pull the battery terminal outside the battery compartment.
• Connect the 9 volt battery to the battery terminal. It can only be
connected one way.
• Push the battery and the terminal back into the battery
compartment.
• Replace the battery compartment door.
If the power is interrupted the clock display goes ‘Off ’. However the clock will
continue to run, powered by the 9 volt battery. When power is restored the clock will
come ‘On ’ again to the correct time. The alarm setting will also be maintained.
NOTE: If no battery is installed, or if the battery is exhausted and power is
interrupted, the time and alarm settings will be lost. When power is restored the clock
display will begin flashing “12:00 AM”. This is your indication that the time is
incorrect and needs to be reset. Don’t forget to reset both the time and the wake up
time.
A fresh alkaline battery should be able to provide back up power for up to a year in
normal circumstances. However if you live in an area that has frequent power
interruptions the battery life will be reduced. For best results you should install a new
battery every 8 to 12 months. If you installed a battery but you notice that the display
is flashing, your battery is exhausted and should be replaced.
POWER SOURCE
This radio operates on 120V, 60Hz AC house
current only. Unwind the AC power cord and
connect the plug to any conveniently located AC
outlet.

NOTES:
1.) This radio uses a polarized AC plug which has one blade wider than the other.
This plug will only fit into a polarized AC outlet. This is a safety feature. If the
plug will not fit, you may have an older non-polarized AC outlet. Do not defeat
the safety feature by trying to file the wider blade, or replacing the plug. Contact
an electrician to replace your outdated outlet.
2.) Do not connect this unit to an AC outlet which is controlled by a wall switch. The
AC outlet should be ‘live’ at all times.
ANTENNA INFORMATION
FM
- The FM antenna is built into the AC power cord. Be sure the AC power cord
is fully unwound and extended to its full length for best FM reception.
AM
