Manual Time Adjustments

Adjusting The Wake Up Times

Selecting The Alarm Week Mode

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.

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

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 1

or

ALARM 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.

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.

Note:

For buttons displayed with additional

they have multiple function at different operation mode. Generally, the

functions displayed in

font are for operation when Radio is ON.

INVERSED

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.

This radio is designed to operate on normal 120V 60Hz AC power only. Do not

attempt to operate the radio on any other power source. You could cause damage

to the radio that is not covered by your warranty.

Protect Your Furniture

Power Source

LOCATION OF CONTROLS AND INDICATORS

This radio should be connected to an AC outlet that

is always 'live'. Do not connect it to an outlet that is

controlled by a wall switch. When the power to the

radio is interrupted, the built in lithium battery takes

over to maintain the time and alarm settings. To

maximize the life of the lithium battery keep the radio

connected to a 'live' AC outlet at all times.
