Backup battery
As with all batteries, eventually the built in lithium battery will need to be
replaced.
A number of factors, such as the length of time between the date your
clock radio was manufactured and the date you plugged it in for the first
time, determine the amount of time before replacement.
During this initial storage period the lithium backup battery is supplying
power to your CD clock radios computer memory.
Once you connect your CD clock radio to the household AC mains supply
the battery no longer supplies power to your clock radio.
A fresh backup battery can supply power to your CD clock radio’s
computer memory for 2 years even if it is never connected to a mains
supply.
If your CD clock radio was connected to the AC mains supply within a
few months after it was manufactured and you experience only short
interruptions to the mains supply, your battery may last for up to 2-3
years or even longer.
When the power drops below a certain level the Low battery indicator
will light. When you see this indicator you should change the battery as
soon as it is convenient to do so.
See following page for details on battery replacement.
Headphones
A Headphone Socket (3.5mm located on left side) is provided for use
with either headphones or an earpiece. Inserting a plug automatically
mutes the internal loudspeakers.
