Frequently Asked Questions - WT 496 TECHNOLINE

How to set the time manually on the WT 496?

Press and hold the SET/ALM button until "00" flashes for the time zone. Then press SET/ALM repeatedly to cycle through hour, minute, 12/24h format, year, month, day, date order, and snooze duration. Use the ▲ and ▼ buttons to change each value. The display returns to normal time after 10 seconds of inactivity.

How to enable or disable an alarm?

In normal display, press SET/ALM to select the alarm (1 to 5). The alarm icon is displayed. Then press ALM/ON-OFF to enable (ON icon) or disable (ON icon disappears). The device returns to the time after 5 seconds.

What to do if the reception icon flashes continuously?

The flashing icon indicates the clock is trying to receive the radio-controlled time signal. Ensure the device is placed near a window, away from metal surfaces and electrical appliances. Automatic reception occurs each night between 1 am and 5 am. You can also start manual reception by pressing and holding the ▼ button until a beep.

How to use the programmable night light function?

In normal display, press and hold the Zz·☀️ button until the ⚙ icon appears and "OFF" flashes. Press ▲ or ▼ to switch to "ON". Press Zz·☀️ again to set the turn-on time (0:00 to 11:00?). A third press selects the duration between 5h or 7h. The device exits settings after 10 seconds.

How to set an alarm for a specific day (single alarm)?

Select the desired alarm with SET/ALM, then press and hold SET/ALM to enter settings. When "1-7" flashes, choose "1-1" with ▲ or ▼. Then set the year, month, and day. Confirm with SET/ALM. The alarm will only sound on that specific date.

Why does the screen show an incorrect time?

This may be due to poor reception of the time signal or low batteries. First check the reception icon. If it is missing, move the clock to a better exposed location. If the problem persists, remove and reinsert the batteries for a reset, then reprogram the settings.

How to change the display format from 24h to 12h?

Press and hold SET/ALM to enter setting mode. Press repeatedly until "24 Hr" flashes. Use ▲ to toggle between "12 Hr" and "24 Hr". In 12h mode, the PM indicator appears for afternoon hours.

What does the low battery icon mean?

The low battery icon appears at the bottom of the screen when the batteries are almost depleted. Replace the 4 batteries with new alkaline batteries respecting polarity. Frequent use of the backlight reduces battery life.

How to stop a sounding alarm and reset it for the next day?

When the alarm sounds, press any button except Zz·☀️ (snooze). The alarm stops and resets for the next day. The alarm icon remains displayed steadily.

What to do if the device stops responding or displays abnormal characters?

This may be caused by electrostatic discharge. Remove the battery compartment cover, take out the batteries, wait a few seconds, then reinsert them respecting polarity. Default settings will be restored; you will need to reprogram the time and alarms.
