Important Battery Precautions
• Any battery may present a risk of
fi re, explosion, or chemical burn
if abused. Do not try to charge a
battery that is not intended to be
recharged, do not incinerate, and
do not puncture.
• Non-rechargeable batteries, such as
alkaline batteries, may leak if left in
your product for a long period of
time. Remove the batteries from the
product if you are not going to use
it for a month or more.
• If your product uses more than one
battery, do not mix types and make
sure they are inserted correctly.
Mixing types or inserting incorrectly
may cause them to leak.
• Discard any leaky or deformed bat-
tery immediately. They may cause
skin burns or other personal injury.
• Please help to protect the environ-
ment by recycling or disposing of

ings.
• Do not expose product to extreme
temperatures such as found near
a hot radiator or stove, or in a car
parked in the Summer sun.
• Connect power cord only to AC
power source as marked on the
product.
• Some products employ a polarized
AC line plug (one blade is wider).
This is a safety feature. The plug
will go in the power outlet only
one way. If the plug doesn’t go into
the outlet completely, turn the plug
over and put it in the other way. If
it still doesn’t fi t, contact a qualifi ed
electrician to change the outlet. Do
not defeat the safety purpose of
the polarized plug.
• Route power cord to prevent it
from being pinched, or walked on,
or melted by a hot stove or radiator.
• To clean cabinet, unplug AC power
cord, then use a soft cloth damp-
ened only with water.
• Do not place lighted candles, ciga-
rettes, cigars, etc. on the product.
• Unplug AC power cord from outlet
during a lightning storm or when
product is left unused for a long pe-
riod of time to prevent damage due
to lightning or power line surges.
• Care should be taken so that objects
do not fall and liquids do not spill
into the product.
• Never add accessories that the
product has not been designed to

• An appliance and cart combination
should be moved with care. Quick
stops, excessive force, and uneven
surfaces may cause the appliance
and cart combination to overturn.
• Damage Requiring Service –This

fi ed service personnel when:
A. The power supply cord or the
plug has been damaged; or
B. Objects have fallen, or liquid has
been spilled into the product; or
C. The product has been exposed to
rain; or
D. The product does not appear
to operate normally or exhibits a
marked change in performance; or
E. The product has been dropped,
or the cabinet damaged.
• When service or repairs are com-
pleted, ask the service technician to
perform the safety check described
in the service manual and to
confi rm that replacement parts have
the same safety characteristics as
the original parts.
• Overloading - Do not overload the
wall outlets, extension cords or inte-
gral convenience receptacles as this
can result in a risk of fi re or electric
shock.
•
IF YOUR PRODUCT OPERATES ON
BATTERIES,
adhere to the follow-
ing precautions:
A. Any battery may leak electrolyte
if mixed with a different battery
type, if inserted incorrectly, or if all
batteries are not replaced at the
same time.
B. Any battery may leak electrolyte
or explode if disposed of in fi re or
an attempt is made to charge a bat-
tery not intended to be recharged.

Plugging in for power
AC OUTLET POWER SUPPLY:
120V~60Hz
The AC power plug is po-
larized (one blade is wider
than the other) and only
fi ts into AC power outlets
one way. If the plug will
not go into the outlet
completely, turn the plug over and try
to insert it the other way. If it still does
not fi t, contact a qualifi ed electrician
to change the outlet, or use a different
one. Do not attempt to bypass this
safety feature.
Power is fed to the unit even when it
is not functioning. To cut the power
supply off, the power cable must be
unplugged.
Battery back-up operation
The power failure protection circuit will
not operate unless battery is installed.
When the battery backup functions, the
digital display will not light, however,
the wake function still occurs during the
power interruption if remaining battery
power is adequate.
Normal operation will resume after AC
power is restored so you will not have
to reset the time or wake.
Install battery as follow:
1. Remove battery compartment door
(located at the bottom of the radio)
by applying thumb pressure to the
tab on battery door and then lift
the door out and off the cabinet.
Power failure indicator
When AC power is interrupted
(disconnected) for a short period of
time, both time and alarm settings
will change (unless battery is
installed). After AC power is restored
(reconnected), the Digital Display
will blink to indicate that power was
interrupted and you should readjust the
time and alarm settings.
Alkaline (NEDA 1604A/IEC
6LR61) battery is recom-
mended. Carbon-zinc battery
may be used but memory holding
time will be substantially reduced.
Memory holding time for a fresh
alkaline battery is approximately
8 hours (if radio or alarm are not
operated) which should take care
of short, nuisance-type AC power
failures. To preserve battery life,
the unit should remain plugged
into an AC outlet. As the battery
gets older, its voltage drops and
memory may be lost. Be sure to
replace the battery periodically.
Battery should be removed if the
unit will be stored for more than
one month. Leaky battery can
badly damage the clock radio.
Turning on/off
• Slide the selector to
ON
on the top of
the unit to turn on
the radio.
• To turn off, slide
the selector to
OFF
.
Selecting bands
Slide the
BAND
switch on
the side of the unit to select
between AM and FM bands.
Tuning to stations
Rotate the tuning knob on the
side of the unit to tune up and
down radio frequency.
Antennas
AM Antenna
– A built-in ferrite rod
antenna eliminates the need for an
outside antenna for AM reception.
Rotating the unit slightly may improve
reception of distant AM stations.
FM Antenna
– The power cord acts
as your FM antenna. The power cord
picks up moderate to strong stations
and eliminates the need for an external
antenna in most strong signal areas. Be
sure the power cord is stretched out to
its full length. Do not coil or bunch the
cord together. Changing position of the
power cord may improve reception.
Built-In AFC
– The Built-In Automatic
Frequency Control (AFC) works only on
FM. It helps to reduce drift on FM recep-
tion and to keep the radio locked in on
the FM station to which it is tuned.
