Disconnect the product from the network using the power button – if this is not available, unplug the power cord from the socket.
When using a multi-socket power strip, make sure that the sum power draw of all the connected devices does not exceed its maximum throughput rating.
If you will not be using the product for a long period of time, disconnect it from mains power.

Inserting the batteries / connecting the power supply

Connect the power supply unit to the power supply unit connection socket (20) on the back of the radio-controlled alarm clock.
Connect the power cable of the radio-controlled alarm clock to a properly installed socket.
The radio-controlled alarm clock switches on automatically.
Alternatively, open the battery compartment (21), insert two AAA batteries with the correct polarity and close the battery compartment cover

Note

If the batteries are inserted correctly and you connect the power supply unit to the alarm clock, the radio-controlled alarm clock will automatically switch to the external power supply.
Sustained projection is only possible on mains power

Replacing the batteries

Open the battery compartment (21) on the back of the product.
Remove and dispose of any used batteries. Insert two new batteries (AAA). Ensure that the polarity of the battery corresponds to the symbols in the battery compartment.
Close the battery compartment (21).

Operation

Note
Hold down the UP button (14) or the DOWN button (15) to select values faster.

Setting date/time automatically using the DCF signal

Once you have inserted the batteries or connected the power supply unit, the display is switched on, an acoustic signal sounds and the alarm clock automatically starts searching for a DCF radio signal. During the search, the radio symbol (3) flashes. This process can take around 7 minutes.
When the radio signal is received, the date and time are automatically set

If the station still does not receive a signal, press and hold the WAVE button (16) for approx. 3 seconds to start the manual search for the DCF signal. The radio icon (3) starts to flash.

Note – Time settings

The search process takes around 7 minutes. If the search fails, it ends and is repeated at the next full hour. The radio icon (3) goes out.
In the meantime, however, you can set the time and the date manually.
The clock automatically continues to search for the DCF signal on a daily basis (between 1 am and 5 am) to correct any deviations. If the signal is received successfully, the manually set time and date are overwritten.
Press the WAVE button (16) again to end the manual search for the DCF radio signal.

Manually setting the date/time (104952)

Press and hold the TIME button (12) for approximately 3 seconds until the display begins to flash.

Note – Time zone

The DCF signal can be received over long distances, but always transmits the current Central European Time in Germany. Make sure you set the time difference in countries with another time zone.
If you are in Moscow, for example, the time is 3 hours later than in Germany. This means that you should set +3 for the time zone. The clock then automatically sets the time to 3 hours ahead after receiving the DCF signal or according to the manually set time.
