Resetting The Clock After A Total Memory Loss
If you do not change the built in lithium battery within a reasonable period of time
after you see the ‘flashing’ LOW warning indicator, the lithium battery may
become exhausted and will no longer be able to supply back up power to the
SmartSet
®
internal computer. If the unit is disconnected from the Mains outlet after
the battery is exhausted, or if a power interruption occurs, the SmartSet
®
memory
will be lost and the clock will need to be reset when the power is restored. Be sure
to install a fresh lithium battery before you reset the clock, otherwise the clock will
need to be reset each time the power is interrupted.
If the lithium battery is exhausted and you experience an interruption in the Mains
power supply, the clock will reset itself to its initial default setting when the power is
restored.
The initial default setting is “12:00 AM, Saturday, 1
st
January (1. 1), 2005”.
If you notice that the time on your SmartSet
®
clock radio is completely incorrect,
and the day of week indicator is also wrong, press the DATE/MONTH button to
see the date.
If the date display is showing “1. 1”, you
probably experienced a total memory loss.
To reset the clock after a total memory loss, proceed as follows:
1.) Follow the instructions on pages 16, 17 and install a new CR2430 lithium battery
in the battery compartment.
2.) Connect the radio to your Mains outlet and let the clock set itself.
3.) Depress the DATE/MONTH and TIME buttons together. The display will change
from ‘Time’ to ‘Year’.
While holding the DATE/MONTH and TIME buttons, press the SET + button
to set the display to the correct year, then release the buttons.
