To keep good time, the unit needs one 6F22 battery in addition to house current. The battery keeps the clock operating in the event of a power interruption.

Before setting the time, open the lid at the bottom of the unit, install the battery with correct polarity, and then close the lid.

The unit features a full power back-up function to keep the clock, the alarm (radio and buzzer), and the radio operating during a power interruption using a 6F22 battery.

After a power interruption, the displayed time may not always be correct; it may gain or lose about 10 minutes per hour.

To check battery power, unplug the AC power cord from the wall outlet and plug it in again after a few minutes. If the displayed time is incorrect, replace the battery with a new one.

Additionally, when the unit will be left unplugged for a long time, remove the battery to avoid undue battery discharge and damage to the unit from battery leakage.
