COMPUTER/CLOCK BATTERIES
These batteries are used to operate the clock, displays, and
microcomputer which controls the receiver and retains the
memory. Be sure to keep the batteries installed even when the
receiver is operating on other power sources than the radio bat¬
teries.
Battery installation
Insert two size AA batteries (lEC designation R6) with correct
polarity, following illustration [C] on page 3.
As soon as the batteries are installed, 0:00 will appear on the clock
display and the clock begins to operate.
Battery life
About one year of operation can be expected when using Eveready
No. 1015 batteries. This assumes listening for four hours a day at
normal volume.
When the computer/clock batteries are exhausted, the displays
may become faint.
Replacement of the batteries
Be sure to replace both computer/clock batteries once a year to
avoid damage from leaking batteries.
Once the batteries are removed, the memorized frequencies and
timer programs are erased and the clock setting is cancelled. Be
sure to memorize or set these contents again after replacing the
computer/clock batteries.
Note
When the air is especially dry, the following may be caused by
static electricity, but there is no cause for alarm:
• The indication in the clock/timer display and the frequency
display disappears.
• Irregular figures appear in the clock/timer display and the fre
quency display.
• The indication preset at the factory—0:00 or AM 150.0 kHz—ap¬
pears in the clock/timer or frequency display.
• Frequencies cannot be tuned in.
If any of these things happens, set the MAIN POWER switch to
OFF, and reset to ON. If the problem persists, remove and re-install
the computer/clock batteries.
The MEMORY PRESET key is illustrated and described as
follows in the text of this manual.
