Mains adapter:

(Mains adapter not supplied)

Input voltage: 230 V \~ 50 Hz

Output voltage: DC 3V (+/- 5%)===

Rated current: min. 300 mA

Polarity:

Even when using 3 V mains adapter, a battery must be inserted. Otherwise, the clock will not function.

For Model KH2198: Insert the single battery into the upper part of the battery compartment 17. The two other batteries, one above the other, power radio operation and the projection.

For Model KH2199: Insert the single battery into the compartment marked "CLOCK USE".

⚠️ Important:

Ensure that you have the correct polarities with the batteries and the power adapter.

False polarity will damage the device.

The device can be operated as follows:

• only with batteries,
  • with a mains power adapter and a battery for the clock.

KH2198:

You require three 1.5 V batteries of the type Micro / AAA / LR03.

1. Open the cover of the battery compartment ⑰ on the underside.
2. Insert the three batteries into the battery compartment ⑰, paying heed to the polarity markings shown in the battery compartment ⑰.
   Ensure that the black textile strip is positioned under the batteries, this will make future battery exchanges easier.
3. Close the cover, ensuring that it engages.

KH2199:

You require three 1.5 V batteries of the type Mignon / AA / LR06.

1. Open the cover of the battery compartment ⑰ on the underside.
2. Insert the three batteries into the battery compartment ⑰, paying heed to the polarity markings shown in the battery compartment ⑰.
3. Close the cover, ensuring that it engages.

Placing

• Place the projection clock onto a level surface.
• Position the projection clock such that the projection lens ① is directed onto an empty surface. The distance from the projection lens to the projection area (ceiling or wall) must lie between 0,4 m and 3 m.

Operation

Connect the external mains adaptor

This device can be operated with an external mains adaptor.

Please use only mains adaptors that meet these specifications:

Input voltage: 230 V \~ 50 Hz

Output voltage: DC 3V (+/- 5%)

Rated current: min. 300 mA

Polarity: ⊖—●—⊕

Attention:

Make certain that the polarity is correct - both for the batteries as well as for the mains adaptor. Take note of the markings on the 3V direct current connection 10 ⊖—⊕—⊕.

False polarity will damage the device.

Radio operation

1. Slide the switch ALARM ON/OFF/AUTO ③ into the position "ON".
2. To switch on, turn the volume controller OFF/BUZZ/VOLUME ⑨ until an audible »Click« is heard.
3. Using the volume controller OFF/BUZZ/VOLUME ⑨ now set the desired sound volume level.
4. Place the waveband selector switch ⑤ at the desired frequency range (FM/AM).
5. Adjust the tuning regulator ⑫ to select the desired radio station. The frequencies can be read off from the frequency scale ⑪.
6. To switch off, slide the switch ALARM ON/OFF/AUTO ③ into the position "OFF".

i Note:

The radio is only switched off when the switch ALARM ON/OFF/AUTO ③ is at the positions OFF or AUTO. To simply turn the sound volume regulator ⑨ to very quiet, until a »Click« is heard, is not sufficient.

Setting up the telescope aerial

• Remove the telescope aerial ② from its retainer and set it up.
• Extend the telescope aerial ② completely.

To improve reception in the FM frequency range, slowly turn the end of the telescope aerial ② in various directions. As soon as you have found a position with good reception from your desired radio station, leave the telescope aerial ② in this position. For the reception of AM transmissions, an antenna is built into the device. For improved reception, alter the position of the device in radio mode.

Setting the time

Whilst holding the button TIME 13 pressed down:

1. Press several times consecutively, or press and hold, the button HOUR 16 to set the hours.
2. Release the button HOUR 16 as soon as the desired hours setting is shown in the display 8.
3. Press several times consecutively, or press and hold, the button MIN 15 to set the minutes.
4. Release the button MIN 15 as soon as the desired minutes setting is shown in the display 8.

The programmed time will be accepted automatically as soon as the button TIME 13 is released.

Setting the alarm time

If the clock is set correctly, as described above:

Whilst holding the button ALARM 14 pressed down:

1. Press several times consecutively, or press and hold, the button HOUR 16 to set the hours.
2. Release the button HOUR 16 as soon as the desired hours setting is shown in the display 8.
3. Press several times consecutively, or press and hold, the button MIN 15 to set the minutes.
4. Release the button MIN 15 as soon as the desired minutes setting is shown in the display 8.

The adjusted alarm time will be automatically accepted as soon as the button ALARM 14 is released.

Radio alarm call

When the clock is set correctly, as described above:

1. Adjust the tuning regulator ⑫ to select the desired radio station.
2. Using the sound volume controller OFF/BUZZ/VOLUME ⑨ now set the desired sound volume level.
3. To activate an alarm call with radio, place the switch ALARM ON/OFF/AUTO ③ at "AUTO". The symbol for the alarm function 🔔 and "Zz" appear in the display ⑧.

At the programmed time the radio switches itself on. If you do not touch any other buttons while the alarm is sounding, after about a minute the radio switches itself off. The radio gives its next alarm call on the following day at the programmed time.

Snooze Function

Pressing the SNOOZE ④ button interrupts the alarm tone for approx. 8 minutes. For as long as the snooze function is activated the indicator "Zz" blinks in the display. After these 8 minutes, the alarm tone is repeated. Place the switch ALARM ON/OFF/AUTO ③ at "OFF" to switch the alarm function off completely.

Wakening with the alarm tone

When the clock is set correctly, as described above:

1. Place the sound volume controller OFF/BUZZ/VOLUME ⑨ at "OFF/ BUZZ". A "Click" will be heard.
2. To activate a wake-up call with the alarm tone place the ALARM ON/OFF/AUTO ③ at "AUTO". The symbol for the alarm function 🏠 and "Zz" appear in the display ⑧.

The alarm tone sounds at the programmed time. If you do not touch any other buttons while the alarm is sounding, after about a minute the alarm tone switches itself off. The radio gives its next alarm call on the following day at the programmed time.

Projection

Attention! When used properly, the radiation from the projection of the display is not at all dangerous!. However, avoid looking directly into the light beam and do not aim the beam at other persons or at animals.

To display the time correctly on a wall or the ceiling, the hinged projection element needs to be swivelled into the correct position and the room must be appropriately darkened..

1. Place the PROJECTION ON/OFF ⑦ switch at ON.
2. Adjust the projection element as desired. The time is projected onto the required position. The projection distance is approx. 40cm - 3m.
3. Adjust the clarity of the projection with the projection focus 18.

Background lighting for the display and projection

A one-time pressing of the button PROJECTION LIGHT ⑥ activates the display illumination and the time projection for approx. 10 seconds.

Cleaning and care

⚠️ Attention:

Never permit fluids to permeate inside the device. The device could also be irreparably damaged!
