OWNER'S MANUAL

Welcome to the world of Hello Kitty.

The Sure-Alarm battery back-up system will remember the time and alarm settings
of course, but it can do more than that. As long as there is a fresh 9 - volt battery
installed, the Sure-Alarm system will operate the radio or buzzer alarm to wake
you up even if the power is off at your normal wake up time.
We have taken great care to make sure that your Clock Radio was in perfect
working order when it left our factory. It has been designed to give you many years
of enjoyment and trouble free operation. Read this manual before operating this
unit to become familiar with its features and obtain the performance that will bring
you continued enjoyment for many years.
