SLUMBER MAINTENANCE
SLUMBERING POWER BREAKDOWN
The clock radio has a built-in slumberfunction-. With
this function you can continue to listen to the radio
while falling asleep. You do not need to switch off the
radio yourself. This happens automatically.
The period during which you continue to listen to the
radio is called the slumber time. You can set this
yourself. The maximum slumber time is 59 minutes.
Slumber time
• If you wish to slumber for 59 minutes, you should
simply press SLUMBER button As long as you
press the button, the display will show a slumbertime
of 59 minutes.
• If you wish to slumber for less than 59 minutes,
then keep SLUMBER button © depressed. The
display will now slowly begin to count down from 59
to 00 minutes. As soon as the required slumber time
is reached, release the button.
You may switch off the radio before the slumber time
has expired.
• Press the button SLUMBER OFF © and the radio
will switch off.
Note:
- The slumber function will not operate if function
switch © is set to RADIO ON, because the radio
will then simply stay on.
- The slumber function has no influence on the alarm
setting.
- During slumbering the radio is often on very low.
Bear this in mind if you wish to be woken the,next
day, as you will perhaps sleep through the sound
of the radio.
As soon as the power fails, the whole appliance wiii
be switched off.
When the power returns, the figures on the display will
begin to blink. The clock radio is thereby indicating
that you must set the correct time and alarm time.
BATTERY
You may fit a 9 volt battery in the clock radio. If the
power then fails, the clock will in any case continue
to operate. This will not however be visible, because
the battery does not power the lighting of the clock
display. As soon as the power returns the display will
show the correct time.
To be perfectly clear: Alarm, radio and display do
not operate on the battery.
• Insert the battery into the compartment in the base
of the appliance (see illustration).
Recommendation
Replace the battery once a year. It cannot be stated
precisely how long the battery will last. This depends
completely on how often and for how long the power
fails. This may vary from country to country or even
region to region.
If you will not be using the appliance for any length
of time, then it is advisable to remove the battery from
the appliance, to avoid the possibility of leakage and
consequently damage to the appliance.
MAINTENANCE_____________________________
- Rngerprints, dust and dirt on the appliance should
be removed with a clean, damp cloth or chamois
leather. Do not use products containing abrasives
or solvents for cleaning (spirit, thinner, alcohol
etc.), as these may damage the casing.
- Rain, damp and excessive heat are bad for the
appliance. The clock radio should not therefore be
left in direct sunlight or near heating apparatus.
