Battery Backup Operation

This clock radio is equipped with a memory
holding system that can be powered with 2
"AAA" batteries (included). 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 Spacemaker to keep track of time and
timer setting programmed into memory. When
the battery backup functions, the digital display
will not light. Normal operation will resume
after AC power is restored so you will not have
to reset the time.
Power Failure Indicator
The display blinks when AC power is interrupted
for more than 2 seconds. You need to reset the
clock time to stop the display from blink.
Installing Back up Battery:
1. The compartment door is located at the side
of the Spacemaker.
Rotate the lock in the direction of the
arrow until it is released. Remove the
compartment door.
2. Before inserting the batteries, observe the
polarities (that is, + and -) of the batteries,
then relate the polarities to the engraved
diagram inside the battery compartment.
Now insert the batteries.
3. Replace the battery compartment door. Lock
the door in place by pushing down on the
lock and rotating it in the opposite direction
(counterclockwise).
