The product starts to receive the radio time signal as soon as the batteries are inserted.

Note: Do not alter the position of the product during reception of the signal. This may disrupt reception.

Radio time signal (DCF):

The DCF signal (time signal transmission) consists of time pulses broadcast from one of the most accurate clocks in the world. It is situated near Frankfurt / Main, Germany.

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

If it does not work properly, restart the product. To do this, keep the WAVE button 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 product (e.g. by putting it near a window) if you have problems with reception.

Operation

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

Press and keep pressed the WAVE button for longer than 3 seconds. The product attempts to receive the DCF radio time signal. This process takes several minutes and is indicated in the LC display by a flashing radio symbol

Note: If the product cannot pick up the DCF radio signal on account of an error, it is also possible to set the time manually. As soon as reception of the DCF signal is successful, the manual settings are overwritten.
