PROTECT YOUR FURNITURE
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.

during a power interruption or power outage (in order to preserve the battery life
the Display will not light). All clock settings will be kept in memory, however, the
clock time may require adjustment for exact accuracy once the power returns. If a
battery is not installed, the Display will blink”12:00” when the power is restored.

bottom of the cabinet and connect a 9V DC
battery to the Battery Clip located inside.
Note: The battery clip only fits one way to ensure
the correct polarity.
2. Replace the Battery Compartment Door.
IMPORTANT: Be sure that the battery is
installed correctly. Wrong polarity may damage the unit.
3. For optimum performance, an alkaline-type battery is recommended. If the
unit is not to be used for an extended period of time, remove the battery.
An old or leaking battery can cause damage to the unit and will void the
warranty.
4. Do not try to recharge batteries that are not intended to be recharged; they
can overheat, rupture and leak. (Follow the battery manufacturer’s directions).
5. Do not dispose of batteries in fire, batteries may leak or explode.
DIMMER CONTROL

power is restored the display will flash “12:00”. This indicates that the time
displayed is incorrect and needs to be reset.
