Protect Your Furniture

This model is equipped with non-skid rubber 'feet' to prevent the product from moving

when you operate the controls. These 'feet' are made from non-migrating rubber

material specially formulated to avoid leaving any marks or stains on your furniture.

However certain types of oil based furniture polishes, wood preservatives, or cleaning

sprays may cause the rubber 'feet' to soften, and leave marks or a rubber residue on

the furniture. To prevent any damage to your furniture we strongly recommend that

you purchase small self-adhesive felt pads, available at hardware stores and home

improvement centers everywhere, and apply these pads to the bottom of the rubber

'feet' before you place the product on ne wooden furniture.

Power Source

This radio is designed to operate on normal 120V 60Hz AC power only. Do not attempt

to operate the radio on any other power source. You could cause damage to the radio

that is not covered by your warranty.

This radio should be connected to an AC outlet that is always 'live'. Do not connect it to

an outlet that is controlled by a wall switch. When the power to the radio is interrupted,

the AA battery (not provided) takes over to maintain the time and alarm settings. To

maximize the life of the AA battery keep the radio connected to a 'live' AC outlet at all

times.
