Frequently Asked Questions - 60.2552.01 TFA

How to set the time manually if the DCF signal is not received?

Press and hold the SET button on the back for 3 seconds. DCF appears, set to OFF. Confirm with SET. Then, set successively the hours, minutes, year, month, day, temperature unit, language and tone using the + and - buttons.

How to enable or disable DCF reception?

By default, DCF reception is enabled. To disable it, hold SET for 3 seconds, then press + or - to switch from ON to OFF. Confirm with SET.

How to set the alarms?

For alarm 1, press the AL1 button in normal mode. Set the hours with +/-, confirm with the same button, then the minutes. Activate the corresponding ON/OFF switch on the back. For alarm 2, use the AL2 button.

What to do if the display is blank?

Check the battery polarity (3x AA). If the batteries are worn or incorrectly inserted, replace them observing the +/- direction.

How to use the snooze function?

When the alarm sounds, press the SNOOZE/LIGHT button on the front. The alarm stops for 5 minutes and the zZ symbol flashes.

How to change the temperature unit?

In setting mode (hold SET for 3 seconds), after setting the day, you will see the temperature unit flash. Use +/- to switch between °C and °F, then confirm with SET.

How to activate automatic backlight?

Automatic backlight is set with the AUTO LIGHT ON/OFF switch on the back to ON. The Auto-Light symbol appears on the display.

Why does the time change by itself?

The clock is radio-controlled (DCF). It automatically synchronizes to the atomic clock, which includes the change to summer/winter time. That's normal.

What to do if the backlight does not turn on?

Check that the AUTO LIGHT switch on the back is ON. If the light sensor is obstructed, the backlight may not activate. Clean the sensor. If the problem persists, replace the batteries.

How to change the language for the days of the week?

In setting mode (hold SET for 3 seconds), after the temperature unit, the language flashes. Use +/- to choose from D, EN, FR, ES, IT, NL, then confirm with SET.

6. Getting started

• Open the battery compartment and insert the three AA 1.5 V batteries. Make sure the polarities are correct.
• Close the battery compartment again.
• The device will alert you with a beep and all LCD segments will be displayed for a short moment.
• The clock will now scan the DCF frequency signal and the DCF symbol will be flashing on the LCD. When the time code is successfully received after 3-8 minutes, the radio-controlled time, the date and the DCF symbol are steadily displayed on the LCD.
  The DCF reception always takes place at 3:00 o'clock in the morning. If the reception is not successfully received at this time, further attempts will happen at 4:00 and 5:00 o'clock respectively.
• You can also start the initialization manually.
• Press and hold the - button for three seconds.
  The DCF symbol will be flashing.
• To end the reception, press and hold the - button for three seconds again. The DCF symbol disappears.
• There are three different reception symbols:

flashing - reception is active
solid - reception is good

no symbol - no reception/reception is deactivated

BINGO 2.0 - Radio-controlled alarm clock

• If the clock cannot detect the DCF-signal (e.g. due to interferences, transmitting distance, etc.), the time can be set manually. The clock will then work as a normal quartz clock. (See: Manual settings).

Radio-controlled time reception

The time base for the radio-controlled time is a caesium atomic clock operated by the Physikalisch Technische Bundesanstalt in Braunschweig. It has a time deviation of less than one second in one million years. The time is coded and transmitted from Mainflingen near Frankfurt via frequency signal DCF-77 (77.5 kHz) and has a transmitting range of approximately 1.500 km. Changeover from summer time to winter time is automatic. In Daylight Saving Time, DST is shown on the LCD. The quality of the reception depends mainly on the geographic location. Normally there should be no reception problems within a 1.500 km radius around Frankfurt.

Please take note of the following:

• The recommended distance to any interfering sources like computer screens or TV sets is at least 1.5 - 2 meters.
• Inside concrete rooms reinforced with steel (e.g. basements, superstructures), the received signal is naturally weakened. In extreme cases, please place the unit close to a window to improve the reception.

BINGO 2.0 - Radio-controlled alarm clock

• During nighttime, the atmospheric interference is usually less severe, and reception is possible in most cases. A single daily reception is adequate to keep the accuracy deviation under 1 second.

7. Operation

• Press and hold - or + button in the setting mode for fast mode.
• The instrument will automatically quit the setting mode if no button is pressed within 15 seconds.
• If the button tone is enabled, each button operation is acknowledged with a beep.

7.1 Manual settings

• Press and hold the SET button at the back in normal mode for three seconds.
• dcF appears on the display and ON (default) will be flashing. If the DCF reception is activated and after successful reception of the DCF signal no manual adjustment is necessary.
• Press the - or + button if you want to deactivate the DCF reception (OFF).
• Confirm the setting with the SET button.
• If the DCF reception is enabled (ON), you can set the time zone after confirmation with the SET button (TZ appears on the display and 0 default will be flashing).

BINGO 2.0 - Radio-controlled alarm clock

• Press the - or + button to adjust the time zone (-9/+9).
  The time zone correction is needed for countries where the DCF signal can be received but the time zone is different from the DCF time (e.g. +1 = one hour later).
• Confirm the setting with the SET button.
• Press the SET button to make the settings in the following sequence: the hours, the minutes, the year, the month, the day, the temperature unit (default °C), the day-of-week language (default German), and the button tone (default OFF). Press the - or + button to adjust it.
• Confirm the setting with the SET button.
• After a successful reception of the DCF signal, and if the DCF reception is activated (ON), the manually set time will be overwritten.

7.1.1 Setting of the temperature unit

• Press the - or + button to toggle between Celsius (°C) or Fahrenheit (°F) as temperature unit to select.
