PREPARATION FOR USE
Unpacking and Set Up
•Remove the alarm clock radio from the carton and packaging materials.
Retain the carton and packaging for future reference and in case the alarm
clock radio ever needs to be serviced or transported.
•Remove any descriptive labels or stickers on the front or top of the cabinet.
Do not remove any labels or stickers from the back or bottom of the cabinet,
Note the serial number on the bottom of your radio and write this number in
the space provided on the Warranty page of this manual.
•Place your radio on a level surface such as a table, desk or shell,
convenient to an AC outlet, out of direct sunlight, and away from sources
of excess heat, dirt, dust, moisture, humidity or vibration.
•Select and attach the appropriate plug attachment to the AC mains
adapter. Unwind and fully extend the power cable.
•The FM antenna is built into this cord. It must be fully extended to provide
the best FM reception.
•Connect the mains adapter to the mains supply and the radio. Ensure the
mains socket is switched on.
Protect Your Furniture
This model is equipped with non-skid rubber feet to prevent the product
from moving when you operate the controls. These 'feet' are made from
non-migrating rubber material specially formulated to avoid leaving any
marks or stains on your furniture. However certain types of oil-based
furniture polishes, wood preservatives, and cleaning sprays may cause
the rubber “feet” to soften and leave marks on the furniture. To avoid the
risk of such damage to your furniture we recommend either a piece of cloth
or self-adhesive felt pads attached to the underside of the alarm clock radio.
Power Source
The alarm clock radio uses an AC power adapter of a kind that depends on
where the alarm clock radio is purchased. The AC power adapter for North
America is rated 120V at 60Hz and within Europe or Australia is rated
220-240V at 50Hz. Using an incorrect AC power adapter is not covered by
your warranty because it may damage the alarm clock radio. A lithium
battery is used to maintain the time and alarm settings when the alarm
clock radio loses AC mains power. To maximize the life of the lithium
battery and to keep the radio and alarm functions active you must ensure
the AC power adapter remains connected and that the AC mains outlet is
never turned off. Ideally you should use an un-switched mains outlet.
IMPORTANT NOTES
•Avoid installing this alarm clock
radio in direct sunlight, close to
sources of heat, where there is poor
ventilation and places that are dusty,
humid, wet or subject to vibration.
•Operate controls and switches as
described in the manual.
•Before turning on the power, make
certain that the AC adapter is
properly installed.
•When moving the unit, be sure to
first disconnect the AC adapter. Do
not use the AC power adapter if any
part of it shows signs of damage.
