Avis d’Industrie Canada  
Alkaline (1.5V) battery is recommended.  
Carbon-zinc battery may be used but  
memory holding time will be substantially  
reduced. Memory holding time for a fresh  
alkaline battery is approximately 8 hours (if alarm  
is not operated) which should take care of short,  
nuisance-type AC power failures. To preserve battery  
life, the unit should remain plugged into an AC  
outlet. As the battery gets older, its voltage drops and  
memory may be lost. Be sure to replace the battery  
periodically. Battery should be removed if the unit will  
be stored for more than one month. A leaky battery  
can badly damage the clock radio.

disposing of batteries according to federal, state, and  
local regulations.

Battery back-up operation  
This clock radio is equipped with a timekeeping system  
that can be powered with two AA batteries (not  
included). The power failure protection circuit will not  
operate unless the batteries are installed.  
When normal household power is interrupted or AC/  
DC adaptor is unplugged, the battery will power the  
clock radio to keep track of time and alarm settings  
programmed into memory.  
When the battery backup functions, the digital display  
will not light, however, the alarm will still sound during  
power interruption if the remaining battery power is  
adequate.
