in your region (USA, EUROPE, JAPAN, AUSTRALIA,or CHINA). The default setting is USA; if you live in the US, you may skip this section.

Important: AM radio will only work if the radio frequency range set to USA.
Install/Replace Backup Battery
The iP90 uses a backup battery system to provide continuous alarm operation and clock settings in the
event of a power failure. If the Battery Low Icon located on the right of the display is flashing, it is time
to replace the backup batteries. Please make sure the AC adaptor is connected, otherwise all settings
may be lost during battery replacement.
Open the battery compartment cover located on the bottom of the unit. Insert 2 “AA” batteries as indicated.
We recommend the use of alkaline batteries for longer life.
