• The device will alert you with a beep and all segments will be displayed for a short moment.
- The Indoor temperature (default °C) appears on the display. It may take 3-8 minutes until the correct temperature is displayed.

6.1 Reception of the radio controlled time

• Attention: The radio reception only works in normal mode (switch to position AL ON / OFF)
• The clock will now scan the DCF frequency signal and the DCF symbol will be flashing on the display. When the time code is received successfully after 7 minutes, the radio-controlled time and the DCF symbol are displayed steadily on the display.
• The DCF reception always takes place daily at 1:00, 2:00, 3:00, 4:00 and 5:00 o'clock in the morning. If the reception is not successfully received until 5:00 o'clock, the next receive operation is again at 1:00 o'clock in the morning.
• You can start the initialization manually.
• Press and hold HR button for three seconds.
  • The DCF reception symbol will be flashing.
  • To end the DCF reception attempt, press the HR button short. The DCF reception symbol disappears.

• There are three different reception symbols:

flashing - reception is active

stays - reception is very good

no symbol - no reception/reception is shut down/set time manually

- If the clock can not detect the DCF-signal (for example due to disturbances, transmitting distance, etc.), the time can be set manually. The clock will then work as a normal quartz clock. (see: Manual setting of the clock).

Note for radio-controlled time

The time base for the radio-controlled time is a caesium atomic clock operated by the Physikalisch Technische Bundesanstalt Braunschweig. It has a time deviation of less than one second in one million years. The time is coded and transmitted from Mainlingen near Frankfurt via frequency signal DCF-77 (77.5 kHz) and has a transmitting range of approximately 1,500 km. Your radio-controlled clock receives this signal and converts it to show the precise time. Changeover from summer time or winter time is automatic. In Daylight Saving Time DST is shown on the display. 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.

Therefore, please note the following steps:

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