Getting Started Using the RCA RC141 Clock Radio

Before You Begin 

Battery back-up operation:

• This clock radio is equipped with a time keeping system that is powered with 2 “AA” batteries (included). The power failure protection circuit will not operate unless batteries is installed.
• When normal household power is interrupted, or AC line cord is unplugged, the batteries will power the clock radio to keep track of time and alarm settings programmed into memory.
• Normal operation will resume after AC power is restored so you will not have to reset the time or the alarm.

To install the battery:

1. Remove battery compartment door (located at the bottom of the radio) by applying thumb pressure to the tab on battery door and then lift the door out and off the cabinet.
2. Insert 2 AA batteries (included).
3. Replace the compartment door.

Note: It is recommended to replace the batteries at least once per year even if no power failures have occurred.

Power failure indicator: If you have not installed the 2 “AA” batteries in the product, or the batteries runs out while AC power is disconnected, all the settings (clock and alarm) will be lost. After AC power is reconnected, the Digital Display will flash to indicate that power was interrupted and you should readjust the time settings.
