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.

the new default zone setting and will always return to that setting after a power
interruption.
There are 7 time zones programmed into your Smart Set ® clock radio as follows :
ZONE 1 — Atlantic Time
ZONE 2 — Eastern Time (Default Setting)
ZONE 3 — Central Time
ZONE 4 — Mountain Time

Manual Time Adjustments
Some people like to set their clocks 5 to 10 minutes fast to make sure that they will
always be on time. Even though the SmartSet ® sets the time by itself, you still have
the option of adjusting the time manually if you wish.
To manually adjust the time display depress and hold the TIME button, and press
either the SET + or - buttons to adjust the time display ahead or back as desired.
Each press of the SET + or - buttons will change the display by one minute. If you
hold the SET + or - buttons the display will continue to change. The display will
change slowly at first, one minute at a time. But if you continue holding the SET +or
- buttons the display will change rapidly.
NOTE: If you manually adjust the time, your new setting is entered into the
SmartSet ® memory. If the power is interrupted, the display will return to your
new setting, not the original setting, when the power is restored.

Adjusting The Wake Up Times
Your SmartSet ® clock radio has two separate alarms that can be set and used
independently. You may use the alarms to wake two people at different times, or
you may use one alarm for weekdays and the other for weekend wake up times.
The procedure for adjusting the wake up time is the same for both Alarm 1 and
Alarm 2.
1.) Depress and hold either the ALARM 1 or
AM
ALARM 2 setting button. The display will
change from the correct time to the Alarm 1
or Alarm 2 wake up time.
2.) While holding the ALARM 1or A LARM 2 setting button, depress either the
SET + or - button to move the display ahead or back to your desired wake up time.
3.) When the desired wake up time appears on the display, release the SET + or buttons.
NOTE: Be sure that you have set the wake up time correctly by observing the AM
indicator. If the AM indicator is 'On ' the wake up time is "AM". If the AM indicator is
'Off', the wake up time is "PM".
4.) When the desired wake up time (AM or PM) appears on the display, release the
ALARM 1 or ALARM 2 setting buttons.

Selecting The Alarm Week Mode
Your SmartSet ® clock radio allows you to select from among three different alarm
operation modes for either alarm. The alarm modes are:
• Everyday ― the alarm will turn on all 7 days.
• Weekdays only ― the alarm will only turn on Monday through Friday;
• Weekends only ― the alarm will only turn on Saturday and Sunday.
To check the Alarm Mode setting for Alarm1, depress the ALARM 1 setting button.
The display will show the Alarm 1 wake up time and the DAY OF WEEK indicators
will show you the alarm mode which is selected.

supplying power to the SmartSet ® computer memory. Once you plug the radio in,
your household outlet supplies the power, and the battery is not being used. A fresh
lithium battery can supply power to the SmartSet ® computer for at least 3 years even
if it is never connected to an AC power supply. If your clock radio was connected to
your AC supply within a few months after it was manufactured, and you experience
only the normal, nuisance type, short duration power interruptions, your battery may
last for up to 5 years or even longer.
When the battery power drops below a certain level, the
LOW BATT. indicator
will 'Flash'. When you see this indicator, you should change the battery as soon as
it is convenient for you to do so. To change the battery proceed as follows:
1.) Purchase a replacement 3V lithium battery wherever batteries are sold . The
battery type is CR2032 or equivalent.
2.) Remove the battery from its package so it is ready to install.
IMPORTANT: Leave the AC adapter connected to your AC outlet.
This will provide power to the SmartSet ® computer memory while the original
lithium battery is removed.
3.) Turn the radio face up and use a small screw driver to remove the screw securing
the battery holder to the cabinet.
4.) Remove the original battery from the holder and insert the new battery into the
holder the same way, observing the positive (+) direction. Slide the holder with
the new battery back into the slot in the cabinet.
BE CAREFUL NOT TO LOSE THIS SMALL SCREW !
5.) Replace the screw that secures the battery holder in the cabinet.
