i This appliance is equipped with rubber feet to prevent it from
moving. The feet are made from non-migrating material specially
formulated to avoid leaving any marks or stains on furniture.
However, certain types of furniture polishes, wood preservatives or
cleaning sprays cause the rubber to soften and leave marks or a
residue on the furniture, and potentially risk the surface to become
damaged. To prevent damage to wooden surfaces, we recommend
that you apply self-adhesive pads to the bottom of the rubber feet
before installation.
Battery backup3.1

purpose, the appliance uses two batteries (AAA). The appliance remembers
the time, but does not display it.
