Elements
- A 1: Wall mounting hole
- A 2: M.SET button
- A 3: RESET button
- A 4: REC button
- A 5: Battery compartment
Getting started
- Insert a new battery AA 1.5 V with the correct polarity (+/-).
- The device is ready for use.
Radio-controlled time reception
- The clock hands now travel to 12 o’clock automatically and the radio-controlled clock tries to receive the radio signal for 3 – 12 minutes. When the time code has been received after a few minutes, the clock hands automatically adjust to the current time.
- DCF radio reception takes place automatically 12 times a day.
- You can also activate the DCF reception manually. Press and hold the REC button for three seconds.
- The clock hands will then move to 12 o’clock and the clock tries to receive the radio signal again.
- If the clock cannot detect the DCF-signal (e.g. due to interference, transmitting distance, etc.), the time can be set manually.
- Important note: If the clock hands are not at 12 o’clock during the DCF reception, they may have been accidentally shifted during transport. In this case, turn the hands carefully into the correct position, otherwise the radio-controlled time cannot be displayed correctly.
Manual time setting
- Press and hold the M.SET button for three seconds.
- Press and hold the M.SET button until the desired time is indicated.
- Press the M.SET button briefly. The clock hands move forward minute by minute.
- Wait 8 seconds, the unit will save the setting automatically.
- The manually set time is overwritten once the DCF time signal is successfully received.
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-con-trolled clock receives the signal, converts it and always shows the exact time. The adjustment of Daylight-Saving Time and Standard Time is also automatic.
- Avoid being close to possible sources of interference that may affect radio reception. It is recommended to keep a distance of at least 2 metres to possibly interfering sources (TV, computer, microwave, wireless phones, baby monitors) and large metal objects (e.g. refrigerator). Within solid walls, especially ones with metal parts, the transmission range can be reduced considerably. 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.
Mounting the clock
- Securely attach the device with a solid nail or a screw and dowel at the respective location using the wall mounting hole. Before the final installation, make sure that the reception of the DCF time signal is possible.
