Make sure a fresh CR2032 lithium battery is used. A fresh CR2032 battery could backup your clock continuously for around 3 days.

ENVIRONMENTAL RECEPTION EFFECTS

Your radio controlled clock radio obtains the accurate time with wireless technology. Same as all wireless devices, the receiving ability maybe affected by, but not limited to, the following circumstances:

● Long transmitting distance
● Nearby mountains and valleys
- Among tall buildings
● Near railway, high voltage cable etc.
● Near freeway, airport, etc
● Near construction site
● Inside concrete buildings
● Near electrical appliances
- Near computers and TV's
● Inside moving vehicles
● Near metallic structures

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

DCF SIGNAL RECEPTION AND SIGNAL INDICATOR

After your clock is powered up, it starts to receive DCF signal. The icon flashes.

Receiving DCF signal ( LED flashing) Successful Reception ( LED becomes static) Failed Reception ( LED disappear)

During reception, press ▼ / WAVE once will display reception mode and signal strength Indication:-

When strong DCF signal is detected, display shows with 3 bars

When weak or no DCF signal is detected, display shows -00 -00

During reception, the signal strength may move from 1 bar to 2 bars to 3 bars. This is normal since the clock is detecting DCF signal and other signals in the air at the same time.

Press SET will return to the time display with LED flashing.

Successful reception or failed reception

LED becomes static on (stop blinking) when reception is successful

LED disappears when reception is failed

Automatic reception and Manual Reception

Your clock starts automatic reception everyday at 1:00, 2:00, and 3:00. If it fails to receive the DCF time signal at 3:00, it will start reception at 4:00. If it fails again, it will start reception at 5:00. If it fails again, it will start automatic reception at 1:00 again in the next day.

Manual reception: simply press and hold ▼ / WAVE, your clock starts manual reception. Press and hold ▼ WAVE to stop DCF reception.

When your clock radio is receiving the radio controlled time signal, the display will turn dimmer. It will resume to the brightness level which you originally selected after the radio controlled time reception is completed.
