Thank you for choosing this instrument from TFA.

Before you use this product

• Please make sure you read the instruction manual carefully.
• The operating instructions are enclosed with the device or can be downloaded at www.tfa-dostmann.de/en/service/downloads/instructionmanuals 
• This product should only be used as described within these instructions.
• Following and respecting the instructions in your manual will prevent damage to your instrument and loss of your statutory rights arising from defects due to incorrect use.
• Please take particular note of the safety advice!
• Please keep this instruction manual safe for future reference.

Radio-controlled clock with indoor climate

• 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.
