Initial operation

• Use the power adapter to connect the clock with an household power socket.
  All the icon on the LCD display will briefly light up for 3 seconds, you will hear a beep tone and the clock begins the search for the radio signal.

Inserting back-up batteries (optional)

• Open the battery compartment cover on the backside of the clock.
  Insert 2 x AA batteries observing correct polarity [ “+” and “-” marks]
• Close the battery compartment cover again.

Environmental reception effects

The clock obtains the accurate time with wireless technology. Same as all wireless devices, the reception is maybe affected by the following circumstances:

• long transmitting distance
• nearby mountains and valleys
• near freeway, railway, airports, high voltage cable etc.
• near construction site
  among tall buildings
• inside concrete buildings
  near electrical appliances (computers, TV's, etc) and metallic structures
• inside moving vehicles

Place the clock at a location with optimal signal, i.e. close to a window and away from metal surfaces or electrical appliances.

Reception of the radio signal:

The clock automatically starts the DCF signal search after 7 minutes of any restart or changing of new fresh batteries. The radio mast icon starts to flash.
At 1:00/2:00 / 3:00 am, the clock automatically carries out the synchronization procedure with the DCF signal to correct any deviations to the exact time. If this synchronization attempt is unsuccessful (the radio mast icon disappears from the display), the system will automatically attempt another synchronization at the next full one hour. This procedure is repeated automatically up to total 5 times.
To manually start DCF signal reception, press the "WAVE" button once. If no signals received within 7 minutes, then the DCF signal search stops (the radio mast icon disappears) and start again at the next full one hour.
To stop searching radio signal, press the "WAVE" button once.

Notes:

• A flashing radio mast icon indicates that the DCF signal reception has started
• A continuously displayed radio mast icon indicates that the DCF signal was received successfully
  We recommend a minimum distance of 2.5 meters to all sources of interference, such as televisions or computer monitors
• Radio reception is weaker in rooms with concrete walls (e.g.: in cellars) and in offices. In such extreme circumstances, place the system close to the window.
• During the DCF radio receive mode, only the "WAVE" button function, other button operation have no function. If you want to carry out other functions of operation, please press "WAVE" button to exit the DCF radio receive mode.

Selecting RCC mode on/off:

• Hold the "WAVE" button until the beep tone sounds and "RCC OFF" is shortly displayed on the LCD. The clock is now no longer using radio-controlled function.
• Hold the "WAVE" button again until the beep tone sounds and "RCC ON" is shortly displayed on the LCD. The clock is using radio-controlled function again.
