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 Braun- schweig. It has a time deviation of less than one second in one million years. The time is coded and transmitted from Mainflingen near Frank- furt 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, super- structures), the received signal is naturally weakened. In extreme cases, please place the unit close to a window to improve the recep- tion.

• 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 sym- bol will be flashing on the LCD. When the time code is success- fully 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 TFA_No. 60.2550_Anleitung_09_18 19.09.2018 16:09 Uhr Seite 132726 BINGO 2.0 - Radio-controlled alarm clock
