This warranty does not include damage to the product resulting from accidents, misuse or
leaking batteries.
Should your product not perform properly during the warranty period, either:
1. Return it to the selling dealer with proof of purchase for replacement,
OR
2. Remove the batteries (where applicable), and pack product complete with accessories in

CANADIAN WARRANTY
MAINS CONNECTIONS:
MAINS OUTLET POWER SUPPLY:120V ~60Hz
Note:
Power is fed to the unit even when it is not functioning. To cut the power
supply off, the power cable must be unplugged.
For Your Safety
The AC power plug is polarized (one blade is wider than the other) and
only fits into AC power outlets one way. If the plug won’t go into the
outlet completely, turn the plug over and try to insert it the other way. If it
still won’t fit, contact a qualified electrician to change the outlet, or use a
different one. Do not attempt to bypass this safety feature.
Protection against mains power failures:
-- Connect a 9-volt battery
(6LR61 or NEDA 1604A)
-- When the battery is used up, the digits flash on and off when the
power comes back on
NOTE: Alkaline (6LR61/NEDA 1604A) batteries are recommended. Carbon-
zinc battery may be used but memory holding time will be substantially
reduced. Memory holding time for a fresh alkaline battery is approximately 8
hours (if radio or alarm are not operated) which should take care of short,
nuisance-type AC power failures. To preserve battery life, the unit should
remain plugged into an AC outlet. As the battery gets older, its voltage drops
and memory may be lost. Be sure to replace the battery periodically. Battery
should be removed if the unit will be stored for more than one month. Leaky
battery can badly damage the clock radio.
