label. If you are not sure of the type of power  
supply to your home, consult your appliance  
dealer or local power company. For products  
intended to operate from battery power, or other  
sources, refer to the operating instructions.  
11. GROUNDING OR POLARIZATION

alternating-current line plug (a plug having one  
blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into  
the power outlet only one way. This is a safety  
feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully  
into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug  
should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to  
replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the  
safety purpose of the polarized plug.  
When replacement parts are required, be sure  
the service technician uses replacement parts  
specified by the manufacturer or those that have  
the same characteristics as the original part.  
Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire,  
electric shock or other hazards.

into the product.  
c. If the product has been exposed to rain or water.  
d. If the product does not operate normally by  
following the operating instructions. Adjust only  
those controls that are covered by the operating  
instructions, as an adjustment of other controls

extensive work by a qualified technician to restore  
the product to its normal operation.  
12. POWER-CORD PROTECTION  
Power-supply cords should be routed so that they  
are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items  
placed upon or against them, paying particular  
attention to cords at plugs, convenience  
receptacles, and the point where they exit from  
the appliance.  
13. LIGHTNING  
To protect your product from a lightning storm, or  
when it is left unattended and unused for long  
periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and  
disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will  
prevent damage to the product due to lightning  
and power-line surges.  
14. POWER LINES  
e. If the product has been dropped or the cabinet  
has been damaged.  
f. When the product exhibits a distinct change in  
performance - this indicates a need for service.  
22. HEAT  
An outside antenna system should not be located  
in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other  
electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall  
into such power lines or circuits. When installing  
an outside antenna system, extreme care should  
be taken to keep from touching such power lines  
or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.  
15. OVERLOADING  
The product should be situated away from heat  
sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves,  
or other products (including amplifiers) that  
produce heat.  
Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords  
as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.  
16. OBJECT AND LIQUID ENTRY  
23. NOTE TO CATV SYSTEM INSTALLER  
This reminder is provided to call the CATV  
system installer's attention to Article 820-40 of the  
NEC that provides guidelines for proper  
grounding and, in particular, specifies that the  
cable ground shall be connected to the grounding  
system of the building, as close to the point of  
cable entry as practical.  
Never push objects of any kind into this product  
through openings as they may touch dangerous  
voltage points or short out parts that could result in  
fire or electric shock. Never spill or spray any type  
of liquid on the product.  
17. SERVICING  
24. NONUSE PERIODS

Dear Customer:  
Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you’ve just purchased is only the start of your  
musical enjoyment. Now it’s time to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement  
your equipment offers. This manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association’s  
Consumer Electronics Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a  
safe level. One that lets the sound come through loud and clear without annoying blaring or  
distortion and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing.  
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level” adapts to higher volumes of  
sound. So what sounds “normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard  
against this by setting your equipment at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.  
To establish a safe level:  
Start your volume control at a low setting.  
Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without  
distortion.  
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:  
Set the dial and leave it there.  
Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss in the future. After  
all, we want you listening for a lifetime.  
We Want You Listening For A Lifetime  
Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a lifetime of fun and enjoyment. Since  
hearing damage from loud noise is often undetectable until it is too late, this manufacturer and  
the Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer Electronics Group recommend you avoid  
prolonged exposure to excessive noise. This list of sound levels is included for your protection.

INSTALLATION  
Unravel the AC cord and connect it to a  
conveniently located AC outlet having 120V  
and 60Hz only. The Clock Display will  
illuminate and “12:00” will blink in the window.  
NOTE: If the AC plug does not fit into a  
nonpolarized outlet, do not file or cut the wide  
blade. If the AC plug does not t into a  
nonpolarized AC outlet, do not le or cut the  
wide blade. It is the user’s responsibility to  
have an electrician replace the obsolete outlet.  
If the AC cord is disconnected or if there is a power failure, this electronic clock is  
designed to continue operating internally (without showing the time on the Clock  
Display) with a 9 volt battery (not included). To install the battery, connect the  
battery to the terminals of the battery snap inside the compartment (use of an  
alkaline battery is recommended).  
Be sure to check the condition of the battery  
periodically by disconnecting the AC cord and  
connecting it again two or three minutes later. The  
preset times should continue operating. If the present  
time does not appear, it indicates the battery is dead  
or not connected properly. The 9 volt battery will keep  
the internal times accurately for approximately 30  
minutes. If the power is restored after 30 minutes, the  
times may need to be reset.  
BATTERY PRECAUTIONS  
Follow these precautions when using batteries in this device:  
1. Use only the size and type of battery specified.  
2. Be sure to follow the correct polarity when installing the batteries as indicated in the  
battery compartment. Reversed batteries may cause damage to the device.  
3. If the device is not to be used for a long period of time, remove the batteries to prevent  
damage or injury from possible battery leakage.  
4. Do not try to recharge batteries not intended to be recharged; they can overheat and  
rupture. (Follow battery manufacturer’s directions.)
