POWERSUPPLY

This unit operates from a main supply of 230V 50Hz . Connect the AC power cord to the AC household main outlet. Ensure that the voltage is as indicated on the rating plate on the rear of the unit.

Battery Back-up Power Failure Protection

This radio has a battery back up circuit that will keep the correct time and alarm settings in the event of a temporary power interruption.

Install a 2 x UM4 Battery, not Included, into the battery compartment located on the back of the unit (29).

Note: We recommend an alkaline battery for longer usable life. Change the battery every 9 to 12 months for best result and avoid possible battery leakage.

If power is temporarily interrupted the display will blink and the radio will not play. However, the battery back-up circuit will continue to maintain the clock and alarm settings. When power is restored the clock will display the correct time and alarm settings, and no adjustment is necessary.

• To remove a disc from its storage case, press down on the centre of the case and lift the disc out, holding it carefully by the edges.

• Fingerprints and dust should be carefully wiped off the disc's recorded surface with a soft cloth. Unlike conventional records, compact discs have no grooves to collect dust and microscopic debris so gently wiping with a soft cloth should remove most particles. Wipe in a straight line from the inside to the outside of the disc. Small dust particles and light stains will have absolutely no effect on reproduction quality.
• Never use chemicals such as record sprays, antistatic sprays, benzine, or thinners to clean compact discs. These chemicals can irreparably damage the disc's surface.
• Discs should be returned to their cases after use. This avoids serious scratches that could cause the Laser pickup to skip.
• Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high humidity, or high temperatures for extended periods. Long exposure to high temperatures can warp the disc.
• Do not stick paper or write anything with a ballpoint pen on the label slide of the disc.
