(PST) (refer to the maps on the right).
2. Daylight Saving
You can slide the
DST
switch at the back
of the unit to turn on/ off in areas
observing/ not observing such time
change.
WARNING: Please avoid playing with
these buttons after entering the
Clock/Alarm set mode.
Auto Clock Set
You do not have to set the clock time as a
built-in automatic time set system is
equipped in this clock powered by 3V (2
X AA batteries, included and installed). All
you have to do is to plug this clock for
power and current time will be shown
automatically.
However, the batteries can also be
exhausted and we recommend that you
replace the batteries every 2-3 years. In
case the memory holding batteries are
accidentally removed, you may set the
clock manually with following procedures:
Setting Clock
1. Slide the switch
/WAKE1/WAKE2/
on the top of the unit to clock
position.
Auto Brightness Control
Clock time and radio frequency are
display on the display area at the front of
the unit. The display brightness can be
adjusted automatically by analyzing the
intensity of surrounding light sources.
Selecting Radio Mode
Press
RADIO/AUX
to switch on radio.
Switching Band
Slide the
AM/FM
switch on the back of the
unit to select AM or FM band.
Tuning the Radio
Turn the
TUNING
knob on the right of the
unit to adjust radio frequency. Radio
frequency shows on the display.
FM Antenna
The power cord acts as your FM antenna.
The power cord picks 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. 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 reducing
drift on FM reception and keeping the
radio locked in on the FM station to which
it is tuned.
When tuning in FM stations, you may notice
that the station you are tuning can
be well-tuned on two or three nearby
points on the dial. Always tune carefully
at the loudest and clearest point.
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.
Listening to Auxiliary Source
1. Connect your auxiliary source (e.g. mp3
player) to the AUX input jack on the right
side of the unit.
2. Turn on the unit and your auxiliary source.
3. Press
RADIO/AUX
to switch to listen to
auxiliary source. The AUX indicator on the
front display will turn on. Press again to
switch back to listen to the radio.

Battery Back-Up Operation
This clock radio is equipped with a
memory holding system that can be
powered with 2 “AA” batteries (included
and installed). The power failure
protection circuit will not operate unless
battery is installed. When normal
household power is interrupted, or AC line
cord is unplugged, the batteries will
power the clock radio to keep track of
time and alarm settings programmed into
memory. When the battery backup
functions, the digital display will not light,
however, the function of alarm 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 the alarm.
Replace batteries 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.
2. Insert 2 AA batteries.
3. Replace the compartment door.
Note: we recommend that you replace the
batteries every 2-3 years.

Indoor Temperature
The main unit has an internal
thermometer that shows the current room
temperature at the lower left of the
display indicated by “IN”.
Outdoor Temperature
A separate digital
thermometer is
included which can
remotely transmit
temperature
information to the
main unit and shows
at the lower right of
the display indicated
by “OUT”.
Install 2 “AAA” batteries (not included) in
the thermometer.
1. Unscrew at the battery compartment
to open the door.
2. Install two “AAA” batteries by
referring to the indications in the
compartment.
3. Replace the battery compartment door
of the thermometer and secure closing
with the screw.
Once the main unit (clock radio) is
plugged for power, it can automatically
synchronize with the digital thermometer
(with batteries installed) to show the
temperature. You do not need to do
anything.
Placing thermometer
The digital thermometer can be fixed on walls
with the included holder (screws not
provided). If you are placing it outdoor,
ensure that it does not get wet by rain and is
not under direct sunlight.
If you are using the line out temperature
sensor, place the thermometer indoor and
extend the sensor wire outside the window.
Line Out Temperature Sensor
If you are going to install the
thermometer outdoor with extreme
temperatures (below 14
o
F (-10
o
C) ), the use
of line out temperature sensor (included)
is recommended to avoid battery failure.
Insert the sensor connector to the receptor
(below
ID
button) in the battery
compartment. The sensor wire should be
extended from battery compartment
through the hole at the lower left of the
door.
However, if you find abnormal temperature
display on the main unit, you may
synchronize the temperature manually by
following the steps below:
1.
At the main unit (clock radio):
press and hold
ID
until the temperature
display “- - -” at the lower right of the
display starts scrolling.
2.
At the digital thermometer:
Unscrew
at the battery compartment to open the
door. Press and hold
ID
inside the battery
compartment until the antenna icon on
the display of the thermometer flashes.
Synchronization starts automatically and
should be finished within several seconds.
•
When synchronization succeeds, the
antenna icon stops flashing and the
synchronized temperature shows on the
main unit.
3. If synchronization fails (no temperature
shows on the main unit), perform step 2
again.
If synchronization still fails after several
attempts and the temperature display
“- - -” on the main unit stops scrolling and
starts to flash, you have to perform both
steps 1 and 2 again.
Tips:
• The thermometer sends the
latest temperature information to
the main unit every 35 seconds.
There may be delay on the main unit to
show the most updated temperature
changes.
• When the outdoor temperature display
is flashing on the main unit, there may be
no signal receiving from the digital
thermometer. Please make sure the
batteries of the thermometer are not
empty and the thermometer is not placed
too far from the main unit and without
obstacles between them.
Note: Both the main unit and
thermometer will show “LLL” if
temperature is lower than -58
o
F
(-50
o
C) and will show “HHH” if it
is higher than 140
o
F (60
o
C).
