- Before Initial Use

- Setting up Devices

CAUTION! When selecting a location to set up the device, please ensure that it is not exposed to direct sunlight, vibrations, dust, heat, cold, or moisture. Do not place the device close to sources of heat, e.g., radiators. Otherwise, it may be damaged.

☐ Make sure that the device is standing safely on a stable surface. ☐ Make sure that the device is mounted properly if installed on a wall. A falling clock could injure people or cause damage to the device itself or to other objects. ☐ Stand the radio-controlled clock on its base 19 or mount it on the wall. ☐ Place the clock on a level, horizontal surface.

Before Initial Use

☐ Do not stand the device on valuable or sensitive surfaces without suitable protection. The surface may otherwise be damaged. ☐ Do not place the device anywhere near sources of interference such as televisions, computers, thick walls, etc. These may hinder reception of the radio signal. ☐ Do not use the clock in reinforced concrete buildings, e.g., airports, high-rises, factories, or basements. This can seriously disrupt reception of the radio signal. ☐ Do not start radio reception in a moving vehicle, e.g., car or train. Reception of the radio signal by the device can disrupt the vehicle electronics. ☐ Do not expose the clock to temperatures below -10 °C for any length of time. This can seriously affect the reception range of the device.

- Installing the LCD radio-controlled clock

Note: You will need a drill, suitable assembly material, and a screwdriver for installation.

⚠️ CAUTION! DANGER TO LIFE AND RISK OF INJURY; RISK OF DAMAGE TO PROPERTY!

Please read the operating and safety instructions for your drill carefully.

WARNING! DANGER TO LIFE! Please ensure that you do not drill into any electrical wiring, gas, or water pipes in the wall. If necessary, carry out checks with a wire, pipe, and stud detector before you drill into a wall.

☐ Find a suitable place to install the radio-controlled clock. ☐ Mark the drill hole on the wall.

CAUTION! DANGER OF INJURY! Refer to the operating instructions for your electric drill.

☐ Drill the hole with a drill. ☐ Insert a suitable dowel into the drill hole. ☐ Use a screwdriver to insert a suitable screw. ☐ Hang the radio-controlled clock on the screw using the mount 16.

- Starting the LCD radio-controlled clock

Note: Remove the insulating strip before using the product for the first time.

☐ Open the battery compartment cover 20 on the back of the device. ☐ Insert a Mignon 1.5 V / AA type battery. Note: Make sure that the polarity is correct when you insert the battery. This is indicated in the battery compartment. ☐ Close the battery compartment cover.

As soon as the battery is inserted, reception of the radio signal begins.

Note: Do not alter the position of the radio-controlled clock during reception of the signal. This may disrupt reception.

Radio Signal (DCF):

The DCF signal (time signal transmitter) consists of time pulses emitted by one of the most accurate clocks in the world close to Frankfurt / Main, Germany – this varies by 1 second in a million years.

Your radio-controlled clock receives these signals under ideal conditions up to a distance of approx. 1,500 km around Frankfurt / Main. Reception of the radio signal generally takes approx. 3–10 minutes.

☐ If it does not work properly, restart the radio-controlled clock. To do this, keep the WAVE button 21 pressed for approx. 3 seconds.

Reception can be considerably impaired by obstacles (e.g. concrete walls) or sources of interference (e.g. other electrical devices). If necessary, change the location of the radio clock (e.g. by putting it near a window) if you have problems with reception.

Operation

Operation

● Reception of DCF radio signal

The radio-controlled clock automatically starts to search for the DCF radio signal. The radio icon 📤 2 on the LCD indicates that the clock is searching for the radio signal.

Note: Reception of the radio signal may be seriously disrupted in reinforced concrete buildings (see "Setting up Devices").

It is also possible to start reception of the DCF radio signal manually on the clock.

☐ Press and hold down the WAVE button 21 for 3 seconds. The radio-controlled clock attempts to pick up the DCF radio signal. This process takes a few minutes and is indicated by the flashing radio icon 📷 2 on the LCD.

Note: If the radio-controlled clock cannot pick up the DCF radio signal on account of an error or the distance from the transmitter, etc., it is also possible to set the time manually. As soon as reception of the DCF signal is successful, the manual settings are overwritten.
