Resetting The Clock After A Total Memory Loss

Page 23 highlights

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. If the lithium battery is exhausted and you experience an interruption in the AC power supply, the clock will reset itself to its initial default setting when the power is restored. The initial default setting is "12:00 AM, Saturday, January 1st (1. 1), 2005". 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 first), 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 20-21 and install a new CR2430 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 the MONTH/DATE and TIME buttons, press the SET + button to set the display to the correct year, then release the buttons. CKS3528_110606.p65 22 22 9/11/2006, 14:07
