Default What would make the clock reset in my car every time I shut it off?

I have Accord 1994 has OEM Honda 6 CD Changer which was not working
So that I bought new Sony Xplod CDX-565MXRF 10 CD changer
Anyways I installed it and it is working fine
But the problem is every time I shut off my car the time reset and radio reset all saved channels and ask for code
I’m worried about the way I connected the power wires, I connect them to the fuse box below the dashboard

There are 2 power wires. There is a constant that is always feeding the unit power, even when its off. Thats where the clock keeps running and the saved information gets saved. Then there is the power wire that turns on only when the unit is on.
