FCC Information

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, under 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 by 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 the receiver.
  • Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
  • Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. This device complies with

Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

  1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and
  2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

PREPARATION FOR USE

Unpacking And Set Up

  • 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 are the only safe way to pack your radio to protect it from damage in transit.
  • Remove any descriptive labels, stickers, or protective film on the front or top of the cabinet, if any. 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. Extend the wire antenna fully and orient it for better FM reception.

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.

Power Source

Emerson CKSW0555 Smartset Wireless Charging Alarm Clock Radio 1

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. This radio should be connected to an AC outlet that is always ‘life’. 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.

Changing The Lithium Battery

Like all batteries, eventually, the built-in lithium battery will need to be replaced. Several factors, such as the length of time between the date the radio was manufactured and the date you plugged it in for the first time determine the amount of time before replacement. During this initial storage period, the lithium battery is supplying power to the SmartSet® computer memory. Once you plug the radio in, your household outlet supplies the power, and the battery is not being used.

A fresh lithium battery can supply power to the SmartSet® computer for at least 3 years even if it is never connected to an AC power supply. If your clock radio was connected to your AC supply within a few months after it was manufactured, and you experience only the normal, nuisance type, short duration power interruptions, your battery may last for up to 5 years or even longer.

When the battery power drops below a certain level, the! LOW BATT. the indicator will ‘Flash’. When you see this indicator, you should change the battery as soon as it is convenient for you to do so. To change the battery proceed as follows:

  1. Purchase a replacement 3V lithium battery wherever batteries are sold. The battery type is CR2032 or equivalent.
  2. Remove the battery from its package so it is ready to install.
  3. Turn the radio bottom up and use a small screwdriver to remove the screw securing the battery holder to the cabinet.
  4. Remove the original battery from the holder and insert the new battery into the holder the same way, observing the positive (+) direction. Slide the holder with the new battery back into the slot in the cabinet.

BE CAREFUL NOT TO LOSE THIS SMALL SCREW!

  1. Replace the screw that secures the battery holder in the cabinet.
  2. Turn the radio right side up and confirm that the • LOW BATT indicator is ‘Off’.
  3. Save these instructions for future use as you will have to do this again.

IMPORTANT: Leave the AC adapter connected to your AC outlet. This will provide power to the SmartSef® computer memory while the original lithium battery is removed.

WARNING: DANGER OF EXPLOSION IF THE BATTERY IS INCORRECTLY REPLACED REPLACE ONLY WITH THE SAME OR EQUIVALENT TYPE.

Resetting The Clock After A Total Memory Loss

If you do not change the built-in lithium battery within a reasonable period of time after you see the warning indicator, the lithium battery may become exhausted and will no longer be able to supply backup power to the SmartSet® internal computer. If the unit is disconnected from the AC outlet after the battery is exhausted or if a power interruption occurs, the SmartSet® memory will be lost and the clock will need to be reset when the power is restored.

Be sure to install a fresh lithium battery before you reset the clock, otherwise, the clock will need to be reset each time the power is interrupted. If the lithium battery is exhausted and you experience an interruption in the AC power supply, the clock will reset itself to its initial default setting when the power is restored. The initial default setting is “midnight, Saturday, January 1st (1. 1), 2022 ” If you notice that the time on your SmartSet® clock radio is completely incorrect, and the DAY OF WEEK indicator is also wrong, press the CLOCK SET button to see the date.

Emerson CKSW0555 Smartset Wireless Charging Alarm Clock Radio 12

If the date display is showing “1. 1 ” (January 1st), you probably experienced a total memory loss. To reset the clock after a total memory loss, proceed as follows:

  1. Follow the instructions on the previous page to install a new CR2032 lithium battery in the battery compartment.
  2. Connect the radio to your AC outlet and let the clock set itself.
  3. Follow the instructions in the sections Setting the Year/Date/Time to set the clock to the correct year, date, and time
  4. The DAY OF WEEK indicator will change automatically as you adjust the Month/Date settings. Press the CLOCK SET button repeatedly to check the year, date, and time.
  5. Be sure to confirm that you have set the time correctly to ‘AM’ or ‘PM’ by observing the AM indicator. Make final adjustments if necessary.

The SmartSet® clock memory is now reset and the new lithium battery will maintain it for the next 3 to 5 years, depending on the number and duration of the power outages you experience.

IMPORTANT NOTE

After resetting the clock, don’t forget to reset your wake-up times alarm mode settings, and sleep timer settings as well.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Care Of Cabinets
