Operation

5.1 Automatic date/time setting using the DCF signal

• Once you have inserted the battery, the display is switched on, an acoustic signal sounds and the alarm clock automatically starts searching for a DCF signal. During the search, the radio symbol flashes. This process can take 7 to 5 minutes.
• When the wireless signal is received, the date and time are automatically set.

Note – Automatic search
The clock automatically searches for the DCF signal five times per day to ensure that the time is correct. If the search fails, it ends and is repeated at the next clock hour. The radio symbol disappears.

• If the clock repeatedly fails to receive a signal, press the wave button (5) to manually start the search for the DCF signal. The radio symbol ****starts to flash.
• Press the wave button (5) to cancel the search procedure.

Note – Manual search
The manual search takes about 7 minutes. If the search fails, it ends and is repeated at the next clock hour. The radio symbol disappears.

Note – Summertime
The clock automatically switches to summertime.
Note – Time zone

• The time zone is used if the DCF time signal is received in a country whose time zone does not correspond to German time.
• If the time shift is +1 hour, for example, you need to set the time zone to +1. This will automatically set the clock forward one hour.
