Amazon Basics Small Digital Alarm Clock with LED Display User Manual

Before First Use

Plugging in for power

  • Connect the power cord to a convenient wall outlet.
  • Once connected with power, the clock flashes. Refer to the Clock section for instructions on properly setting the Clock.

Back-up battery operation

  • This clock is equipped with a timekeeping system that can be powered with a 9 V alkaline battery (not included). The power failure protection circuit will not operate unless a battery is installed. This convenience feature is meant only for use in case of a power outage as this clock is designed to be powered by AC outlet.
  • When normal household power is interrupted, the battery will power the clock to keep track of time and alarm settings programmed into memory. During unusually long
    outages, Sirs or more, the clock may run fast or slow.
  • When the back-up battery functions or the digital display will not light up, however, the alarm still functions during the power interruption if the remaining battery power is
    adequate. If outage is longer than 15 minutes time may need to be reset.

To install the battery:

  1. Remove the battery compartment door (located at the bottom of the clock) by applying thumb pressure to the tab on the battery door and then lift the door out and off the
    cabinet.Amazon Basics Small Digital Alarm Clock with LED Display User Manual - To install the battery
  2. Connect a 9 V alkaline battery (not included) to the connector plug.
  3. Replace the compartment door.

Power failure indicator

  • If you have not installed the 9 V alkaline battery in the product, or the battery runs out while power is interrupted, all the settings (clock and alarm) will be lost. After AC power is restored, the Digital Display will flash to indicate that power was interrupted and you should readjust the time settings.

⚠ NOTICE It is recommended to replace the battery at least once per year even if no power failures have occurred.

⚠ NOTICE Alkaline (NEDA 1604NIEC 6LR61) type battery is recommended. A carbon zinc battery may be used but memory-retaining time will be substantially reduced. The memory-retaining time for a fresh alkaline battery is approximately 8 hours (if the alarm is not operated) which should take care of short, nuisance-type AC power failures. To preserve battery life, the product should remain plugged into an AC outlet. As the battery gets older, its voltage drops and memory may be lost. Be sure to replace the battery periodically. The battery should be removed if the product will be stored for more than one month. A leaky battery can badly damage unit.

FAQ

Is there a switch for the back up battery? Or does it work as soon as you connect the battery?

It’s an automatic function. If you install the AA battery, not included, the battery automatically kicks in if power goes out, and returns to AC once power is back on. No switch needed.

does this clock keep time when power goes out and then comes back on or do you have to reset?

This clock has a battery that keeps record of the time, no need to reset after power failure.

Will this stay lit at night without choosing that option

Not sure which option you are asking about. The numbers stay lit as long as the clock is plugged in. The nite light will stay lit if you choose that option.
