IMPORTANT NOTE

Resetting The Clock After A Total Memory Loss

®

If you do not change the built in lithium battery within a reasonable period of time

after you see the

warning indicator, the lithium battery may become

exhausted

and will no longer be able to supply back up power to the SmartSet

internal computer. If the unit is disconnected from the AC outlet after the battery

is exhausted or if a power interruption occurs, the SmartSet memory will be lost

and the clock will need to be reset when the power is restored.

Be sure to install a fresh lithium battery before you reset the clock, otherwise the

clock will need to be reset each time the power is interrupted.

The initial default setting is "

12:00 AM, Sunday , January 1st (1. 1), 2017

".

If you notice that the time on your SmartSet clock radio is completely incorrect,

and the

DAY OF WEEK

indicator is

also wrong, press

the

MONTH/DATE

button to

see the date.

If the date display is showing "

1. 1

" (January 1st),

you probably experienced a total memory loss.

To reset the clock after a total memory loss, proceed

as follows:

1 .)

Follow the instructions on page 10,11 and install

a new

CR2032

lithium battery

in the battery compartment.

2.)

Connect the radio to your AC outlet and let the clock set itself.

3.)

Depress the

MONTH/DATE

and

TIME

buttons together. The

display will change

from 'Time' to 'Year'.

While holding in the

MONTH/DATE

and

TIME

buttons, press the

SET +

button to set the display to the correct year, then release the buttons.

4.)

Depress the

MONTH/DATE

button. The display will change from 'Time'

to 'Month/Date' (MM/DD).

While holding in the

MONTH/DATE

button, press the

SET +

button to set the display

to the correct Month and Date. The

DAY OF WEEK

indicator will change automatically

as you adjust the Month/Date settings. When the correct Month and Date appear

on the display, release the buttons.

5.)

Depress the

TIME

button

and the

SET +

button

to set the display to the correct

Time. Be sure to confirm that you have set the time correctly to 'AM' or 'PM'

by observing the

AM

indicator.

6.)

After you set the Time, reconfirm that the Day, and Month/Date displays are

still correct. Make final adjustments if necessary.

The

SmartSet

clock memory is now reset and the new lithium battery will maintain

it for the next 5 to 8 years, depending on the number and duration of the power

outages you experience.

After resetting the clock, don't forget to reset your wake up times and alarm

mode settings, and sleep timer settings as well.
