CLOCK MEMORY BACKUP
The clock memory backup allows your alarm and clock time settings to be stored
for up to a day when there is a power interruption e.g. power failure. The com-
plete clock radio and display illumination will be switched off. As soon as the
power supply returns, the display will indicate the correct time.

Remove the battery door to insert a 9 volts 6F22 type battery (not included)
for backup.
2
Replace the battery door.
NOTE:
If no backup battery is installed or the power interruption is prolonged,
you will need to set the clock and alarm times again.
Batteries contain chemical substances so they should be disposed of
properly.
