Memory Preservation
This unit does not require memory preservation
batteries. A built-in memory power back-up sys-
tem preserves the contents of the memory dur-
ing power failures and even when the unit is
unplugged. The unit must be plugged-in in or-
der to charge the back-up system.
The memory preservation period after the unit
has been unplugged varies depending on cli-
mate and placement of the unit. On the aver-
age, memory contents are protected over a pe-
riod of a few weeks after the last time the unit
was unplugged. This period is shorter when the
unit is exposed to a highly humid climate.
