FCC INFORMATION
NOTE: Alkaline (NEDA 1604A) batteries are recommended. Carbon-zinc
(NEDA 1604) batteries may be used but memory holding time will be substan-
tially reduced. Memory holding time for a fresh alkaline battery is approxi-
mately 8 hours (if radio or alarm are not operated), which should take care of
short, nuisance-type AC power failures. To preserve battery life, the radio
should remain plugged into an AC outlet. As batteries get older, their voltage
drops and memory may be lost. Be sure to replace the battery periodically.
Battery should be removed if the radio will be stored for more than one day.
Leaky batteries can badly damage the clock radio.
