Battery precautions

  1. Do not use rechargeable batteries.
  2. Use only alkaline AA batteries of the same or equivalent type.
  3. Insert batteries with the correct polarity
  4. Keep batteries away from children.
  5. Dispose of exhausted batteries according to local legal requirements. Do not dispose them by throwing away with normal household rubbish.
  6. Avoid short circuiting the contacts in the battery compartment and battery terminals.
  7. Remove batteries from the unit if it will not be used for a long period of time.
  8. Exhausted batteries should be removed from the battery compartment to prevent over-discharging, which can cause leakage and may cause damage to the clock.

Battery installation

Insert 1xAA (1.5V) battery observing the correct polarity, as shown on the diagram.

Radio controlled operation DCF version (Germany & European countries)

The Braun BC06-DCF is set and controlled automatically by DCF radio signal. The DCF radio time code signal is broadcast from Frankfurt, Germany. The coverage of the DCF signal is the whole of Germany. The time code signal can be received up to 1500km from Frankfurt. This covers most of Central and Western Europe.

Radio controlled clock operation

  1. Once the battery is installed properly, the clock automatically sets itself to 12 o’clock and then begins receiving the signal. Once it has received the DCF signal and processed it accordingly (which takes 3 to maximum 12 minutes), the clock will automatically display the correct time.
  2. If the clock still has not set itself after 12 minutes, reception is faulty or not possible at the chosen location. Repeat setting at a different location by pressing the RESET button.
    A time check is carried out during every odd hour and the time is compared with the radio signal and will be corrected if necessary. Each time it will take 3 -12 minutes to receive the radio signal.

If the clock is placed in a poor DCF signal area after having already received the DCF signal, the clock will automatically set itself to 12 o’clock at 1:00am, and then attempt to receive the signal. If the signal cannot be received, the clock will go back to the original time.

Manual time setting

  1. Press and hold the TIME SET button for 3 – 4 seconds to enter the time setting.
  2. Press the TIME SET button for 1 second to advance 1 minute, or
  3. Press and hold the TIME SET button for more than 2 seconds to speed up the time setting to the desired time.
  4. If the TIME SET button is not pressed for 8 seconds, the clock is set

Important: Once the desired time is set manually, the clock will correct itself to a Radio Controlled time once a valid signal is received.

Reset function

The clock has a hands setting help function. By pressing the reset button at any time, the hands will automatically move to the 12 o’clock position and then receive signal.

Guarantee

2 year guarantee against material and workmanship defects (except battery). The guarantee is valid in those countries where the wall clock is officially being sold.
