• The DCF reception always takes place daily at 1:00, 2:00, 3:00, 4:00 and 5:00 o'clock in the morning.

• There are three different reception states: flashing – Reception is active remains – Reception is successful disappears – No reception

• If the clock cannot detect the DCF-signal (e.g. due to interference, transmitting distance, etc.), the time can be set manually.

5.3 Note on radio-controlled time

• The time is transmitted from an atomic clock near Frankfurt am Main by a DCF-77 (77.5 kHz) frequency signal with a range of about 1,500 km. Your radio-controlled clock receives the signal, converts it and always shows the exact time. The adjustment of Daylight Saving Time and Standard Time is also automatic.

• Make sure to avoid the vicinity of any source of interference such as computer screens, TV sets or solid metal objects. Within concrete walls (reinforced with steel) such as basements, the received signal is naturally weakened. In extreme cases, please place the unit close to a window to improve reception.

• During night-time, the atmospheric interference is usually less severe. A single daily reception is adequate to keep the accuracy deviation under 1 second.

• Press and hold the SET button for three seconds to enter the setting mode.

• The first adjustable value flashes on the display.

• Use the UP or DOWNbutton to make the desired setting.

• Confirm with the SET button and go to the next setting.

• The sequence is shown as follows: – DCF reception on/off (default: RCC ON) – Time zone -12/+12 (default: ZONE 00) – Day-of-week language: (default: German) – Location selection country (default: GER) – Location selection city (default: BER) – Year, month, day – Hours, minutes

• Press and hold the UP or DOWN button in the respective setting mode for quick setting. The device will automatically quit the setting mode if no button is pressed for 15 seconds. Radio-controlled clock with sunrise and sunset

• By default, the DCF reception is activated (RCC ON) and after successful reception of the DCF signal no manual adjustment is necessary.

• Once the DCF time reception is deactivated (RCC OFF), the clock and date must be manually set. No time zone will appear.

• If the DCF reception is activated, the manually set time will be overwritten by the DCF time when the signal is received suc- cessfully.

6.1.2 Time zone setting

• In the setting mode you can make the time zone correction

• 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 plus).

6.1.3 Day-of-the week language

• In the setting mode you can set the day-of-the week language: GERMAN, FRENCH, SPANISH, ITALIAN, DANISH, DUTCH, SWEDISH and ENGLISH.

6.1.4 Location selection

• After entering the code for country and city of your location in the setting mode, the sunrise and sunset times and the moon phase (Fig. 3) for today's date are automatically calculated.
