[. . . ] Operating this unit from any other power source may cause damage to the unit, and such damage is not covered by your warranty. The radio is also pre-loaded with 2 x "AA" batteries for the battery back-up and for the Auto Time Set clock system. BATTERY BACK ­ UP SYSTEM The Battery Back-up System ensures the clock and alarm settings will be retained during a power interruption or power outage (in order to preserve the battery life the Display will not light). All clock settings will be kept in memory, however, the clock time may require adjustment for exact accuracy once the power returns. If the batteries are not installed, the Display will blink"12:00" when the power is restored. This will indicate that you have to reset the time and alarm settings. Insert 2 "AA" size batteries into the battery compartment according to the polarity diagram engraved inside the compartment. For optimum performance, these batteries should be replaced after every year or when batteries become exhausted. Old or leaking battery can cause damage to the unit and will void the warranty. Do not mix alkaline, standard (carbon-zinc) or rechargeable (nickelcadmium) batteries. Do not try to recharge batteries not intended to be recharged; they can overheat, rupture and leak. POWER FAILURE INDICATOR If there are no batteries installed in the unit or if the batteries installed are weak or dead, the time and alarm settings will be lost if the AC power is interrupted.

SPEAKER 7 AUTO TIME SET This unit features an Automatic Time Set system powered by 2 X "AA" batteries (3V DC) (Included), so you do not need to set the clock time when first plugged in. After the unit is plugged in, the LED display will show the current time automatically after you set the time zone and daylight saving time for desired area. SETTING THE TIME ZONE Change to your time zone area by sliding the TIME ZONE switch on the back of the unit to the appropriate time zone you live in. Please refer to the time zone map below when setting the switch position on the back. Eastern Standard Time (EST) Central Standard Time (CST) Mountain Standard Time (MST) Pacific Standard Time (PST) PST MST CST EST DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME Slide the DST (Daylight Saving Time) switch on back of the unit to turn Daylight saving time on/off. This setting is correct unless you live in Arizona or parts of Indiana where DST is not observed. IMPOTANT: Do not change this setting unless you live in an area which does not observe the Daylight Saving time change. NOTE: The batteries will become weak after time, so replace the batteries as needed. To avoid re-program the time and alarm settings, we recommend leaving the unit plugged in when changing the batteries. [. . . ] Turn the unit off and unplug the AUX Line-in jack.
