Getting Start

  • Open the battery compartment and insert two new 1.5V AAA batteries into the clock. Ensure that the battery polarities “+” and “-” are correct. Close the battery compartment.
  • When insert the batteries, all the symbols on the LCD display will light up for 3 seconds. You will hear a “dididi” sound. The projection clock starts to detect indoor temperature. Connect the clock with DC power adapter at the same time.
  • Insert 2 new 1.5V AAA batteries to wireless remote sensor. Ensure that the battery polarities “+” and “-“are correct. Close the battery compartment.
  • The projection clock starts to make a connection with the outdoor remote sensor, displayed by a flashing symbol in the “OUT” display area on the

Radio-controlled time reception

The clock will now scan the DCF frequency signal and DCF symbol will be flashing. when the time code is received successfully after 3-7 minutes, the radio-controlled time and the DCF-symbol are displayed steadily in the display. Caution: During the DCF time reception period, backlight turns off and no outdoor temperature will be transmitted. If there is no reception possible, manual initialization can be helpful
Press “+” and “-” button at same time.
The DCF symbol will be flashing. Interrupt the reception by pressing the WAVE button again, The DCF symbol disappears. The DCF reception always take place at 1:00 o’clock in the morning until 5:00 o’clock. If the reception is not successfully received at 5:00 o’ clock, further attempts will be made again at 1:00 clock in the morning. If the clock cannot detect the DCF- signal ( for example due to disturbances, transmitting distance, etc.), the time can be set manually. The DCF symbol disappears and the clock will then work as a normal quartz clock. (see: Manual setting of the clock and calendar )

Note for radio-controlled time DCF

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 Mainflingen near Frankfurt via frequency signal CF-77 ( 77.5 kHz) and has a transmitting range of approximately 1500km. Changeover from summer time or winter time is automatic. In  Daylight Saving Time “DST” is shown on the LCD. 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.

 WASTE DISPOSAL

The European directive 2012/19/EC about electronic and electric waste, requires that you can’t throw away defective domestic appliance  with common waste. Used device has to be collect separately to optimize the recuperation rate and the recycling of the materials to reduce  the impact on the health and the environment.

This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capacities, or by persons lacking in experience or knowledge, unless they are supervised or instructed on the use of this apparatus by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure they do not play with this appliance.

Precision and precautions about the battery use

  • * Throwing away a used battery in the environment or with household waste pollutes and avoids the recuperation of reusable materials.
    • It is important to limit the battery consumption and to respect the following rules:
  • Favor alkaline battery (last longer than saline battery) and when it’s possible use rechargeable battery.
  • Leave used batteries and accumulators in adapted containers that you can find in some retailers. In that way, metals don’t pollute the environment and the health.
    • Battery has to be inserted by respecting the polarity show on the apparel and the battery. An incorrect positioning can damage the apparel, cause leaking and even provoke fire and the explosion of the battery.
    • To assure a good functioning, battery has to be in a good condition. If there is a problem, put new battery.
    • Never try to recharge battery not made for this. It could leak, warm up, cause fire or explode.
    • Replace all the battery at the same time. Never mix up alkaline battery with saline battery.
    • Used battery has to be removed.
    • Also, remove the battery if you’re not using the apparel for a long time.
    • Never try to short-circuit the terminal of a battery.
    • Never throw away the battery in fire because they can explode.
    • Take out the accumulator from the apparel before reload it.
    • We recommend that an adult watch if a child change the battery to respect those rules.
    • If you swallow a battery, go immediately to your doctor or thehospital.
    • For the best ongoing performance, we recommend using only fresh, high-quality, alkaline batteries.
