Before You Begin

Battery Back-Up Operation

The power failure protection circuit will
not operate unless batteries are
installed.

When the battery backup functions, the
digital display will not light, however,
the function of wake 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. Unlock the battery compartment

door (located at the bottom of
the radio) by sliding the tab away
from the door.

2. 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.
