POWER SOURCE
This unit is designed to operate on normal household AC power rated at 240V/50Hz.
Operating this unit from any other power source may cause damage to the unit, and such
damage is not covered by your warranty.
It is also equipped with a battery back-up system for the clock that is powered by an
optional 9V 006P battery (type 6F22 or equivalent – not included).
BATTERY BACK–UP SYSTEM
The Battery Back-up System ensures the clock and alarm settings will be retained during a
power interruption or power outage (in order to preserve the battery life the Display will not
light). All clock settings will be kept in memory, however, the clock time may require
adjustment for exact accuracy once the power returns. If a battery is not installed, the Display
will blink”12:00” when the power is restored. This will indicate that you have to reset the time
and alarm settings.
BATTERY INSTALLATION
1. Open the battery compartment door on the bottom of the
cabinet and connect a 9V DC battery to the Battery Clip
located inside.
Note: The battery clip only fits one way to ensure
the correct polarity.

Important: Be sure that the battery is installed correctly.
Wrong polarity may damage the unit.
3. For optimum performance, an alkaline-type battery is recommended. If the unit is not
to be used for an extended period of time, remove the battery. An old or leaking
battery can cause damage to the unit and will void the warranty.
4. Do not try to recharge batteries that are not intended to be recharged; they can
overheat, rupture and leak. (Follow the battery manufacturer’s directions).
