How to correct the incorrect time display on the SILVERCREST SPU 900 A1 projector clock?
Frequently Asked Questions - 03/04/2026
Response Notice-Facile

If the time displayed on your SILVERCREST SPU 900 A1 projector clock is incorrect, follow these steps to correct it:

Step 1: Manual time setting

  • Turn off the radio by pressing the radio button (symbol on the front).
  • Press the MODE/LOCK button located on the top of the device once. The time display should blink.
  • Use the DOWN and UP buttons to adjust the time. Each press changes the time by one minute.
  • Hold down one of these buttons to scroll through the time quickly.
  • Wait about 15 seconds without pressing any buttons. The clock will automatically save your setting and exit programming mode.

Step 2: Check time zones and daylight saving time

If your time remains off after this adjustment, you can set your time zone. Press MODE/LOCK several times to access the city programming option (LOCAL CITY) and select your time zone using the DOWN/UP buttons. You can also adjust daylight saving time by pressing SNOOZE/DIMMER after selecting your time zone.

Step 3: Enable automatic update via RDS

The SPU 900 A1 can automatically synchronize with radio stations that transmit the exact time. When the device is first plugged in, a message "PLEASE WAIT FOR SETTING THANKS" will appear for a few seconds while the device tries to receive the time via RDS. If this automatic synchronization has failed or was interrupted, you can activate it again by entering programming mode (MODE/LOCK) until you see "UPDATE ON" on the display.

Step 4: Check backup batteries

If the time has reset after a power outage, it means that the AAA backup batteries are not inserted or are exhausted. Open the battery compartment located under the device, insert two 1.5 V AAA/Micro batteries respecting the correct polarity, and then close the cover.

Step 5: Completely reset the device

If the time remains incorrect, unplug the device from the power outlet, wait 2 to 3 minutes, and then plug it back in. Then reset the time by following step 1.

Radio operation

The technical data of the appliance makes possible an adjustable frequency range wider than the permitted frequency ranges of 87,5 - 108 MHz resp. 526,5 - 1606,5 kHz. In some countries, different national regulations may apply to the assigned radio frequency ranges. Please note that information received outside of the assigned radio frequency ranges may not be used, passed on to third parties or otherwise misused. For VHF radio reception, completely unwind the wire aerial and, with the radio switched on, determine the most favourable positioning for it. The appliance has a built-in aerial for MW reception. To improve MW reception, if required, turn the radio until it is in the most favourable position.

Switching the radio on and off

  1. Press the button ① ⑫. In the display ⑭ the current frequency and the switch-on symbol ⑮ is indicated. Next to it, the clock symbol blinks and thus indicates that the device is waiting for the reception of the current time from an RDS station.
  2. Press the button 18 once again to switch the radio function off and return the appliance to the standby mode.

Manual station selection

  1. Use the waveband select button ① to select the required reception waveband, MW (AM) or VHF (FM).
  2. Press the button UP to search for radio stations with a frequency higher than the one indicated in the display.
  3. Press the button DOWN to search for radio stations with a frequency lower than the one indicated in the display.
  4. If the found radio station transmits RDS-Data, the R · D · S indicator in the display ④ glows. The display ⑥ indicates the name of the radio station and the time is updated (insofar as this adjustment is activated, see the section "Programme the Update function").

You can also let the appliance search for radio stations. The radio alarm then searches the selected frequency range until it has found a radio station.

  1. Press and hold the button UP 9 for two seconds: The radio alarm searches for the station with the next highest frequency.
  2. Press and hold the button DOWN 3 for two seconds: The radio alarm searches for the station with the next lowest frequency.

Repeat these steps until you have found a radio station to your liking.

Programming stations

For each of 2 users you can save 20 VHF stations and 12 MW stations as favourites in the appliance. These memory slots are spread over several pages, which can be called up via the PAGE/AL_SET button. On each page there are 4 Sender slots, they can be addressed with the PRESET/ALARM +/-buttons 1/12.

  1. With the radio switched on, press the PAGE/AL.Set button to call up the desired memory page 1-5. In the display the number of the just selected memory page appears below "PAGE".
  2. Tune in to the desired station.
