SLUMBER
The clock radio has a built-in slumber function.
This function enables you to listen to the radio
before you fall asleep. You will not have to switch
off the clock radio yourself. This will take place
automatically. The period during which you
continue to listen to the radio is called the
slumbertime. You can set this yourself. The
maximum slumbertime is 59 minutes.
SLUMBER ON _
If you wish to slumber for 59 minutes, you simply
should press the SLUMBER button (?). As long as
you press the button, the display will show a
slumber time of 59 minutes.
C
O
• If you wish to slumber for less than 59
minutes, keep the SLUMBER button ®
depressed. The display will now slowly begin to
count down from 59 to 00 minutes. As soon as
the required slumber time is reached, release
the button.
SLUMBER OFF _
You can switch off the radio before the slumber
time has elapsed:
• Press the SLUMBER OFF/REPEAT ALARM
button (g) and the clock radio is switched off.
Note:
- The slumber function will not operate if the
RADIO switch is ON.
- The slumber function has no influence on the
alarm setting.
- Duing slumbering the radio is often on very
low. Bear this in mind if you wish to be woken
the next day, as you will perhaps sleep through
the sound of the radio.
POWER FAILURE _
-As soon as a power failure occurs, the complete
clock radio will be switched off.
-As soon as the power supply returns, the
numbers on the display start to flash. This
indicates that you must set the correct time on
the clock.
-You can insert a 9 Volts pack battery (type 6F22)
in the clock radio. Should there be a power
failure, the clock will continue to function. You
will not see this, however, because the battery
does not illuminate the clock display. As soon as
the power is switched on again, the display will
indicate the correct time. For clarity: Alarm, radio
and display do not work on battery.
• Before inserting the battery, connect the power
plug to the wall outlet.
• Place the battery in the compartment on the
underside of the clock radio,
- Replace the battery once a year. It is not
possible to say precisely how long the battery
'Will last. The service life depends on how often
and for how long the power supply fails. This
varies according to country and region.
MAINTENANCE __
- If you do not intend to use the clock radio for a
long time, it is better to remove the plug from
the wall socket. In addition to this, it is advisable
to remove the battery from the clock radio. This
will prevent any danger of leakage and the clock
radio will not be damaged.
- Fingerprints, dust and dirt on the clock radio
should be removed using a clean and damp soft
cloth or chamois leather. When cleaning do not
use any products wich contain abrasive agents
or solvents (benzine, thinner, alcohol etc.).
These might affect the housing.
-Rain, dampness and extreme heat may damage
the clock radio. For this reason it should not be
placed under direct sunlight or close to heating
elements for any period of time.
