INSTALLING BATTERIES  
Your Talking Alarm Clock requires two AA  
batteries (not supplied) for power. For the  
best performance and longest life, we rec-  
ommend RadioShack alkaline batteries.  
Cautions:  
Use only fresh batteries of the  
required size and recommended type.  
Do not mix old and new batteries, dif-  
ferent types of batteries (standard,  
alkaline, or rechargeable), or recharge-  
able batteries of different capacities.

1. Slide the battery compartment cover  
on the back of the clock in the direc-  
tion of the arrow to remove it.  
2. Place the batteries in the compart-  
ment as indicated by the polarity sym-  
bols (+ and –) marked inside.  
3. Replace the cover.

63-963.fm Page 7 Wednesday, June 30, 1999 11:18 AM  
Notes:  
When you install new batteries, the  
clock starts at 12:00 am.  
If nothing appears on the display,  
make sure the batteries are fresh and  
installed properly.  
If the display begins to dim, the voice or  
alarm sounds warped, or the clock stops  
operating properly, replace the batteries.  
Warning: Dispose of old batteries promptly  
and properly. Do not burn or bury them.  
Caution: If you do not plan to use the clock  
for a month, remove the batteries. Batteries  
can leak chemicals that can destroy elec-  
tronic parts.
