RECEPTION OF SENSOR SIGNAL

OPERATING THE MAIN UNIT

Remove the battery door and slide “UK/EU” switch to select the desired country version. Insert 2 new AA size batteries as per the polarity information marked on the battery compartment. Press “RESET” key to restart the clock.

Slide “°C/°F” switch to select between Celsius and Fahrenheit. Replace the battery door. Press “+/CHANNEL” key to select the desired channel.

Note The transmission range may vary depending on many factors. You may need to experiment with various locations to get the best results. Main unit is searching for the sensor(s) (the icon will be flashing) The sensor(s) cannot be found Standard Alkaline batteries contain significant amounts of water. Because of this they will freeze in low temperatures of approximately -12°C (10°F). Disposable Lithium batteries have a much lower threshold for temperature with an estimated freezing range of below -30°C (-22°F). Sensor 1 has been found (the icon will be displayed, but won't flash) and “--” (Outdoor temperature Area) The sensor(s) cannot be found after operating the main unit for 60 minutes Wireless ranges can be impacted by a variety of factors such as extremely cold temperatures. Extreme cold may temporarily reduce the effective range between the sensor and the base station. If the unit’s performance fails due to low temperature, the unit will resume proper functioning as the temperature rises to within the normal temperature range (i.e. no permanent damage will occur to the unit due to low temperatures). Note When the sensor signal is received, the icon “ ” will be displayed on the LCD. Press “RESET” key to restart the clock. Replace the battery door. Remove the battery door and slide “CHANNEL” switch to synchronize the channel with receiver. Insert 2 new AAA size batteries as per the polarity information marked on the battery compartment.

The time and calendar are radio-controlled. The current time and calendar are automatically synchronized with time signal transmitted from Germany/England. When used for the first time (after inserting batteries or pressing “RESET” key), and then after 5 minutes, the clock will start to receive the time signal. The signal reception indicator will be flashing for 7 minutes.

TIME AND CALENDAR MANUAL SETTING

If you are out of reach of the Radio Controlled sensor or if the reception is not reachable, the time and calendar can be set manually. As soon as the signal of sensor is received again, the clock will automatically synchronize with the exact time and calendar. In normal time mode, press “SET CLOCK” key once to enter the time setting mode. Press “+/CHANNEL” or “-/MIN.MAX.” key to change the settings. Press “SET CLOCK” to confirm. The setting order is: 12/24-hr format, time, +/-23 hours time difference, year, day/month format, date. Press “SET CLOCK” key to save and exit the setting mode.

SIGNAL RECEPTION INDICATOR

The wave segment flashing means time signals are being received. The signal quality could be classified into 3 types: No signal Weak signal Excellent signal Note

sources such as TV set, computer, etc. Avoid placing the unit on or next to metal plates. Closed area such as airport, basement, tower block or factory is not recommended. Do not start reception in moving articles such as vehicles or trains. The unit will automatically search for the time signal at 2:00 (3:00 or 4:00 is also available if the signal is not received at 2:00), 8:00, 14:00 and 20:00 each day. Always place the unit away from interfering

12/24 Hr setting Time setting Press “SET ALARM” key to save and exit the setting mode. “ ” indicates alarm is ON. Time difference setting Normal time mode Month-Date setting MD/DM setting Note Year setting

During the setting period, press and hold “+/ CHANNEL” or “-/MIN.MAX.” key to speed up the change of settings. Through “+/-23 hours time difference” setting, the precise time of another area will be shown.

The alarm will be automatically turned on when you set the alarm time. During the alarm time setting period, press and hold “+/CHANNEL” or “-/MIN.MAX.” key to speed up the change of settings.

USING ALARM FUNCTION

ALARM TIME SETTING

Alarm time setting mode In normal time mode, press “SET ALARM” key once to enter the alarm time setting mode. Press “+/CHANNEL” or “-/MIN.MAX.” key to set hour/minute.

Set the alarm time as the above section. In normal time mode, press “ALARM ON/OFF” key once to display the current alarm time. Press it again to turn alarm ON/OFF.

Press “SNOOZE/LIGHT” to silence the alarm for 8 minutes. The “ ” will be flashing. Press “ALARM ON/OFF” key to turn the alarm off and activate it again after 24 hours. If no key is pressed within 120 seconds, the alarm will be turned off and be activated again after 24 hours.

In normal mode, press “-/MIN./MAX.” key once to show the minimum indoor & outdoor temperature records in the past 24 hours. Press it twice to show the maximum temperature records. Press it once again to exit. Note Press and hold it for 3 seconds to delete the minimum and maximum temperature records. Slide “ºC/ºF” switch to select between Celsius and Fahrenheit. MAX.temperature records MIN.temperature records Note

If no signals are received or the transmission is interfered, “--” will appear on the display. Relocate the clock or sensor in other positions to try out where your clock receives the signals best. After several trials in vain, please reset the clock thoroughly.

USING ICE ALERT FUNCTION

If the outdoor temperature range is -2.0ºC ~ 3.0ºC (28.4ºF ~ 37.4ºF), the ice alert indicator light will be turned on and flash.

PLACEMENT OF MAIN UNIT AND

SENSOR ” displays beside If the low battery indicator “ the outdoor temperature, it means that the battery power of sensor is not enough, and you should replace with 2 AAA size batteries at once. While if the low battery indicator “ ” displays beside the indoor temperature, it indicates that you should replace batteries of the main unit with 2 new AA size batteries. Low battery indicator For the sensor, place the screw on the desired wall and hang the sensor by the recessed hole in the back of it or simply place it on the desktop.
