IMPORTANT: The first time you connect your new SmartSet clock radio to the
AC outlet the internal computer will automatically set the time correctly for the
Eastern Time Zone, which is the initial default setting. The display will scan for a
few seconds and then show the correct Day and Time in the Eastern zone. If you
live in the Eastern Time zone, there's nothing else to do. Your clock is set correctly
and running.
If you do not live in the Eastern Time zone you must change the default zone
display to your own zone. You only do this one time and the Smart Set will remember
the new default zone setting and will always return to that setting after a power
interruption.
There are 7 time zones programmed into your Smart Set clock radio as follows :
ZONE 1 — Atlantic Time ZONE 2 — Eastern Time (Default Setting)
ZONE 3 — Central Time ZONE 4 — Mountain Time
ZONE 5 — Pacific Time ZONE 6 — Yukon Time
To change the default time zone display,
depress the TIME ZONE button. The number
"2" will appear on the display indicating that the
default zone is ZONE 2, Eastern Time.

IMPORTANT NOTES
FCC Information
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy
and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause
harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which
the receiver is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/T V technician for help.
•
•
•
• Operate controls and switches as
described in the manual.
Before turning on the power, make
cer tain that the AC adap ter i s
properly installed.
When moving the set, be sure to first
disconnect the AC adapter.
•
•
• Avoid installing this unit in places
exposed to direct sunlight or close to
heat radiating appliances such as
electric heaters, on top of other stereo
equipment that radiates too much
heat, places lacking ventilation or dusty
areas, places subject to constant
vibration and/or humid or moist areas.
Remove the radio from the carton and remove all packing material from the
radio. We suggest that you save the packing material, if possible, in the unlikely
event that your radio ever needs to be returned for service. The original carton
and packing material is the only safe way to pack your radio to protect it from
damage in transit.
Remove any descriptive labels or stickers on the front or top of the cabinet. Do
not remove any labels or stickers from the back or bottom of the cabinet.
Note the serial number on the bottom of your radio and write this number in the
space provided on the Warranty page of this manual.
Place your radio on a level surface such as a table, desk or shelf, convenient
to an AC outlet, out of direct sunlight, and away from sources of excess heat,
dirt, dust, moisture, humidity, or vibration.
Unwind the Line cord connecting the AC adapter and extend it to its full length.
The FM antenna is built in to this cord. It must be fully extended to provide the
best FM reception.
This model is equipped with non-skid rubber 'feet' to prevent the product from
moving when you operate the controls. These 'feet' are made from non-migrating
rubber material specially formulated to avoid leaving any marks or stains on your
furniture. However certain types of oil based furniture polishes, wood preservatives,
or cleaning sprays may cause the rubber 'feet' to soften, and leave marks or a
rubber residue on the furniture. To prevent any damage to your furniture we strongly
recommend that you purchase small self-adhesive felt pads, available at hardware
stores and home improvement centers everywhere, and apply these pads to the
bottom of the rubber 'feet' before you place the product on fine wooden furniture.
This radio is designed to operate on normal 120V 60Hz AC power only. Do not
attempt to operate the radio on any other power source. You could cause damage
to the radio that is not covered by your warranty.

• Start of Daylight Saving Time:
At "2:00 AM" on the 2nd Sunday in March, the clock will automatically
advance to "3:00 AM".
• End of Daylight Saving Time:
At '3:00 AM' on the 1st Sunday in November, the clock will automatically
reset to "2:00 AM".
• Leap Year:
At "12:00 Midnight" on February 28th, the calendar display will change
to "2.29".
Some people like to set their clocks 5 to 10 minutes fast to make sure that they will
always be on time. Even though the SmartSet sets the time by itself, you still have
the option of adjusting the time manually if you wish.
To manually adjust the time display depress and hold the TIME button, and press
either the SET + or - buttons to adjust the time display ahead or back as desired.
Each press of the SET + or - buttons will change the display by one minute. If you
hold the SET + or - buttons the display will continue to change. The display will
change slowly at first, one minute at a time. But if you continue holding the SET +or
- buttons the display will change rapidly.
NOTE: If you manually adjust the time, your new setting is entered into the
SmartSet memory. If the power is interrupted, the display will return to your
new setting, not the original setting, when the power is restored.
Your SmartSet clock radio has two separate alarms that can be set and used
independently. You may use the alarms to wake two people at different times, or
you may use one alarm for weekdays and the other for weekend wake up times.
The procedure for adjusting the wake up time is the same for both Alarm 1 and
Alarm 2.
1.) Depress and hold either the ALARM 1 or
ALARM 2 setting button. The display will
change from the correct time to the Alarm 1
or Alarm 2 wake up time.
2.) While holding the ALARM 1or ALARM 2 setting button, depress either the
SET + or - button to move the display ahead or back to your desired wake up time.
3.) When the desired wake up time appears on the display, release the SET + or -
buttons.
NOTE: Be sure that you have set the wake up time correctly by observing the AM
indicator. If the AM indicator is 'On ' the wake up time is "AM". If the AM indicator is
'Off', the wake up time is "PM".
4.) When the desired wake up time (AM or PM) appears on the display, release the
ALARM 1 or ALARM 2 setting buttons.
Your SmartSet clock radio allows you to select from among three different alarm
operation modes for either alarm. The alarm modes are:
• Everyday ― the alarm will turn on all 7 days.
• Weekdays only ― the alarm will only turn on Monday through Friday;
• Weekends only ― the alarm will only turn on Saturday and Sunday.
To check the Alarm Mode setting for Alarm1, depress the ALARM 1 setting button.
The display will show the Alarm 1 wake up time and the DAY OF WEEK indicators
will show you the alarm mode which is selected.

Power Source
This radio should be connected to an AC outlet that
is always 'live'. Do not connect it to an outlet that is
controlled by a wall switch. When the power to the
radio is interrupted, the built in lithium battery takes
over to maintain the time and alarm settings. To
maximize the life of the lithium battery keep the radio
connected to a 'live' AC outlet at all times.
