POWER SUPPLY

Connecting the unit
Important note for users in the U.K.:
When fitting a mains plug, follow the instructions
on page 2.
GB
The unit is designed to operate from a mains supply
of 230 V~, 50 Hz.
When the set is connected for the first time or after a
power failure (without standby battery fitted), the
display flashes to indicate that the clock and, if
necessary, the alarm time should be set.
Note: The unit remains connected to the mains
even when it is switched off.
The unit is only fully isolated from the mains if the
mains plug is removed from the wall socket.
Standby-battery – mains failure
If a standby battery is fitted, the clock will continue to
operate during mains failure. However, the display will
not be illuminated, the radio does not work and the alarm
will not sound unless the mains supply is restored within
1 hour and 59 minutes of the preset alarm time (if so,
the radio will switch on or the alarm tone will sound).
• Insert a 9 V alkaline battery (IEC 6 LF 22) into the
battery compartment on the bottom of the unit.
• Insert the battery only after the unit has been connected
to the mains in order to prevent unnecessary drain.
• We recommend that the battery is replaced after
approx. 1 year.
• If the clock radio is to be disconnected for a long
period, the standby battery should be removed, as it
would otherwise discharge too quickly and may leak.
Note on Environmental Protection
Do not throw exhausted batteries in the
household refuse.
Hand over the old batteries to your dealer or
public collecting points when buying new ones.
