Installing Backup Batteries
Note:
After installing the backup batteries and reading the Maintenance
section, plug the AC line cord correctly into a wall outlet.
Battery Backup
If the backup batteries have been installed and a power failure occurs or
the AC cord is accidentally disconnected, the current time and alarm time
settings will be temporarily maintained.
If the backup batteries have not been installed or are dead, when the AC
power resumes the display will show 12:00 and you must reset the time
and alarm settings.
1. Open the battery compartment cover
located on the bottom of the unit.
2. Install 2 “AAA” size batteries into the
compartment, making sure that the + and
– polarities match the diagram next to the
compartment.
3. Close the battery cover.
For the Best Possible Performance
We recommend the use of alkaline batteries for longer life.
• Different types of batteries or new and used batteries are not to be mixed.
• Only batteries of the same or equivalent type as recommended are to be
used.
• Batteries are to be inserted with correct polarity.
• Remove exhausted batteries from the unit.
• Do not attempt to recharge non-rechargeable batteries.
• Remove rechargeable batteries from the unit before charging.
• The supply terminals are not to be short-circuited.
• Batteries should be removed if the item is not going to be needed for an
extended period of time (approximately 30 days or more) to prevent
leakage or damage to the unit.
Maintenance
• Protect your furniture when placing the clock on natural wood or a lacquered
wood finish. A cloth or other protective material should be placed between
the unit and the furniture.
• Clean the casing with a soft cloth moistened only with mild soap and water.
Stronger cleaning agents may damage the surface of the case.
• If the clock is not to be used for a prolonged period, remove the batteries to
prevent possible corrosion. Should the battery compartment become corroded
or dirty, clean it thoroughly and replace the batteries.
