Preparation For Use

Remove the clock from the carton and remove all packing material from the clock, Save the packing material, if possible, in case the clock ever needs to be serviced or transported. The original carton and packing material is the only safe way to pack your clock to protect it from damage in transit.

  • Remove any descriptive labels, stickers or protective films on the front or top of the cabinet, if any. Do not remove any labels or stickers from the back or bottom of the cabinet.
  • Note the serial number on the bottom of your clock and write this number in the space provided on the Warranty page of this manual.
  • Place your clock on a level surface such as a table, desk or shelf, convenient to an AC outlet, out of direct sunlight, and away from sources of excess heat, dirt, dust, moisture, humidity, or vibration.
  • Unwind the antenna wire and extend it fully.

Protect Your Furniture

This model is equipped with non-skid rubber ‘feet’ to prevent the product from moving when you operate the controls. These ‘feet’ are made from non migrating rubber material specially formulated to avoid leaving any marks or stains on your furniture. However certain types of oil based furniture polishes, wood preservatives, or cleaning sprays may cause the rubber ‘feet’ to soften, and leave marks or a rubber residue on the furniture. To prevent any damage to your furniture we strongly recommend that you purchase small self adhesive felt pads, available at hardware stores and home improvement centers everywhere, and apply these pads to the bottom of the rubber feet before you place the product on fine wooden furniture.

Power Source

This clock is designed to operate on normal 120V 60Hz AC power only. Do not attempt to operate the clock on any other power source. You could causse damage to the clock that is not covered by your warranty. This clock should be connected to an AC outlet that is always ‘live’. Do not connect it to an outlet that is controlled by a wall switch. When the power to the clock is interrupted, the built in lithium battery takes over to maintain the time and alarm settings. To maximize the life of the lithium battery keep the clock connected to a ‘live’ AC outlet at all times.
