Introduction
This guide provides instructions on how to replace the outer case of a GE 7-4836B Alarm Clock AM-FM Radio. This guide may be helpful if your outer case is cracked or scratched.
Outer cases are used to protect the alarm clock and keep the alarm intact. The clock should still work if cracked or scratched, so this is a cosmetic replacement.
Before you begin, make sure that the replacement outer case is compatible with your alarm clock.
Caution: Make sure radio is unplugged from a power source before starting.
