BATTERY BACKUP
This clock radio is equipped with a memory holding system that can be
powered with a customer-installed
9-volt alkaline battery (not 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 battery will power the clock radio to keep track of time and alarm settings
programmed
into memory. When on battery power, the digital display will
not light; however, should WAKE TIME occur during the power interruption,
the radio will operate or the alarm will sound if remaining
battery power is
adequate. Normal operation will resume after AC power is restored so you
will not have to reset time or alarm.
Install battery as follows:
1. Unlatch and lift off battery compartment
door (located on bottom of
radio)
2. Connect a 9-volt battery to battery connector plug.
3. Insert the battery
and replace compartment
door.
NOTE: Alkaline
(NEDA
1604A) battery
are recommended.
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 radio
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 radio will be stored for more than one
day.
Leaky battery
can badly
damage
the clock radio.
