Clock has distorted or frozen display
Explanation:
On a brand new clock, check for thin plastic film of
printed scratch guard
that may be on the screen of the clock. This thin piece of plastic has printed numbers for
store displays. When the batteries are installed, the “real” numbers show behind the
printed scratch guard and create distortion.
•With all power removed, the clock should be blank.
•If numbers still appear, please check for scratch guard.
Power:
•Check that the power adapter and batteries are installed correctly.
•This is generally a power related issue.
•Batteries may be overpowered or underpowered.
•Remove batteries from clock.
•Press any button 20 times. Leave the batteries out of the display for 2 hours.
•Insert batteries into the clock.
