Battery Back-up System
Your new Timex Clock Radio includes a battery back up system that will maintain the time and alarm 

settings during a temporary power interruption. The battery back up system requires two “AAA” batteries, 

not included. We recommend you use a well-known brand of alkaline batteries for longest life and best 

performance. If you experience a power failure while batteries are installed, the display will turn ‘off’ but the 

clock will continue to run and maintain your alarm settings. When power is restored the display will turn 

‘on’ again and the time and alarm settings will be correct.

• Press on the battery door locking tab to open and remove the battery door.

• Install two “AAA” batteries in the battery compartment. Observe the polarity (+/ - ) markings in the battery 

compartment to make sure the batteries are inserted correctly.

• Replace the battery door.

Protect Your Furniture
This clock radio has four silicon rubber feet on the bottom cabinet to prevent the radio from sliding and to 

avoid scratching your furniture. These rubber feet are designed not to leave marks on furniture. However 

the use of certain furniture polishes could cause the rubber feet to soften and stick to your furniture. If this 

radio is going to be placed on fine, highly polished wooden furniture, you should place small self-adhesive 

felt pads on the rubber feet, or place a cloth between the radio and the surface of the furniture.

AC Power Plug
This model is equipped with a polarized AC power plug that has one wide blade and one narrow blade. 

This plug will only fit in a polarized AC outlet. This is a safety feature designed to prevent electric shock. Do 

not try to defeat this safety feature by filing the wider blade or using an adapter to make this plug fit in a 

non-polarized outlet. If this plug will not fit in your outlet you should have your outlet changed by a qualified 

electrician.

FM Antenna
Unwind the FM wire antenna, located on the back cabinet, and extend it to its full length for best FM reception.

Unwind the FM wire antenna and extend it to its full length.  
Unwind the AC power cord completely and insert the plug into a 120V/60Hz AC outlet. Use an 

outlet that is always ‘live’. Do not use an outlet that is controlled by a wall switch.
When the clock is connected to the AC outlet for the first time the display will turn on and begin 

flashing “12:00 (PM)”. 

Setting The Time
NOTE:

 The time can only be set when the clock radio is in the OFF mode. If the radio is playing, 

press and hold the POWER/MODE button until the display briefly shows ‘OFF’ and then reverts 
to the time.

 

1.  If the display is flashing, press the TUN + (HOUR) button to advance the display to the 

correct hour. If the display is not flashing press and hold the CLOCK button once and the 

display begins to flash, then press the TUN + (HOUR) button to advance the display to the 

correct hour. Observe the PM indicator to confirm that you have set the hour correctly. If 

the PM indicator is ‘On’ the hour on the display is PM. If the PM indicator does not appear 

the hour on the display is AM.

2.  Press the TUN - (MINS) button to advance the display to the correct minute. 

3.  When the correct time is flashing on the display press and hold the CLOCK button. The 

display stops flashing and the clock begins to run.

Setting The Alarm Time
This Timex clock radio has dual alarms that can be set and used independently. The initial 
default alarm settings are 6:00 AM for Alarm 1 and 7:00 AM for Alarm 2. The procedure for 
setting both alarms is the same.
NOTE:

 The alarm times can only be adjusted when the clock radio is in the OFF mode. If the 

radio is playing, press and hold the POWER/MODE button until the display briefly shows ‘OFF’ 
and then reverts to the time.

1.  Press and hold the ALM 1 button until the Alarm 1 time and the Alarm 1 Buzzer indicator 

begin flashing in the display, then release the button.

2.  Press  the  TUN  +  (HOUR)  button  to  advance  the  display  to  the  desired  wake-up  hour. 

Observe the PM indicator to confirm that you have set the wake-up hour correctly. If the PM 

indicator is ‘On’ the wake-up hour on the display is PM. If the PM indicator does not appear 

the wake-up hour on the display is AM.

3.  Press the TUN - (MINS) button to advance the display to the correct wake-up minute, and 

then release the button. 

4.  Press the ALM1 button once more to confirm the wake-up time setting or after 8 seconds 

the display will stop flashing and the new wake-up time will be entered automatically. The 

display will return to the correct time of day but the Buzzer indicator will remain ‘on’ in the 

display indicating that the Alarm 1 is now set to wake you to the buzzer.

5.  To change the alarm mode from buzzer to radio, or to cancel the alarm, press the ALM 1 

button again. The Buzzer indicator will turn on. Press the ALM1 button once more to select 

the Radio alarm. The Radio indicator turns on. Press the ALM 1 button once more to cancel 

the alarm function. The alarm indicators disappear and the display returns to the correct 

time.

6.  Follow the same procedure to set the Alarm 2 wake-up time.

Replacing The Back Up Batteries / Power Failure
Good quality alkaline batteries should last for at least one year under normal conditions. When 

you decide to change the batteries, leave the clock radio connected to the AC outlet to avoid 

having to reset the time, alarm times, and radio preset station memories.

If you experience a power failure and the back up batteries are exhausted, the display will begin 

flashing when the power is restored. If you notice the flashing display you should first remove 

the exhausted batteries, install fresh batteries, and then reset the time, alarm times, and preset 

station memories as described in this manual.

Cleaning The Cabinet
If the cabinet becomes dusty wipe with a soft, dry dust cloth. Never spray the cabinet with 

furniture dusting sprays. If the cabinet becomes dirty or smudged with fingerprints, wipe it with 

a soft cloth slightly dampened with a mild soap and water solution. Never use chemicals or 

abrasive cleaners. Never allow water or any other liquid to enter the cabinet.

There are no user serviceable parts inside this unit. To avoid the potential for electric shock 

never open the cabinet yourself. Refer all service problems to a qualified service technician at a 

factory authorized service center. Consult your warranty for more details.
