Battery Backup System
If the unit is being operated through AC power and there is a power
interruption, the 3 “AA” batteries will takeover and run the unit. All settings,
alarms, and instant weather will operate.
If the unit is operating through DC power (3 “AA” batteries) and there is a
power interruption, then the lithium battery (CR-2032) will maintain the time
and alarm time settings and operate the sure alarm. The sure alarm will
default all alarms to buzzer and turn on for 2 minutes.
All settings will be lost if there is a power failure and no batteries are installed.
