Power Source
This radio is designed to operate on normal 230V 50Hz Mains power only. Do not
attempt to operate the radio on any other power source. You could cause damage
to the radio that is not covered by your warranty.
This radio should be connected to a Mains outlet that is always ‘live’. If you connect
this radio to a wall outlet that is controlled by a switch, the switch should be left ‘On’
at all times. When the power to the radio is interrupted, the built in lithium battery
takes over to maintain the time and alarm settings. To maximize the life of the
lithium battery keep the radio connected to a ‘live’ Mains outlet at all times.
If this plug does not fit into your outlet, you probably have an out-dated Mains
outlet. You should have your outlet changed by a qualified licensed electrician
Sure Alarm battery Back-Up System
This SmartSet ® Clock Radio includes a Sure Alarm battery back-up circuit that can
wake you up even if the power is ‘Off’ at the selected wake up time. If your power
is ‘Off’ at the selected wake up time the clock display will be off and the radio will
not operate, but a separate mini-buzzer will turn ‘On’ automatically to wake you up,
even if you had selected the “Wake to Radio” option. The Sure Alarm will sound for
30 seconds and then shut off automatically.
To stop the Sure Alarm buzzer immediately, press the RADIO ON/OFF button.
Pressing the SNOOZE button has no effect during Sure Alarm operation.
NOTE: In order to maximize the life of the built in lithium battery, please be
sure to set the ALARM 1 and ALARM 2 switches to the “OFF” position if the
radio will be disconnected from the Mains outlet for more than a few hours.
This will prevent the Sure Alarm from turning ‘On’ unecessarily.
