correct zone for your area: 

USA, Pacific 
USA, Mountain 
USA, Central 
USA, Eastern 

3. Press S1 to confirm the setting after the new Time Zone is set (or the clock will 
confirm by itself automatically one minute later.)  The clock automatically advances to

DST ON/OFF setting (S8) 

1.

 

Open the battery cover to reach the DST button (S8).

The Daylight Savings Time (DST) button is preset at factory to ON.   

3.

 

Press down on this button to set DST to OFF if you live in a State where there is no 
change to DST.  Otherwise, always leave this button set to ON year-round and your 
clock automatically adjusts to DST.   

 

WAVE Button - Manual Signal reception (S5)

 

Pushing the Wave button causes the clock to search for time signal immediately instead 
of waiting for automatic signal search, which occurs every night.  Place the clock on a 
wooden table near a window when you want to allow the clock to manually search for 
signal reception.  
 
While the clock is in the running normally: 
1.

 

Press S5 (Wave Button on back of clock) once to initiate manual signal reception.   
(The second hand stops at 12 o’clock position during signal reception.  The minute 
hand advances one minute every 60 seconds and continues to keep time.) 

2.

 

 The clock takes about 5 to 14 minutes to pick up the radio signal. Wait until the 
clock has finished the signal reception procedure and sets the correct time. 

3.

 

After signal reception, the clock will show the correct time after the fast running 
second-hand has stopped. 

4.

 

Push S1 3 times in a row after the clock resumes running to check if reception was 
successful or failed.  

 

If reception was successful, the clock says, “Country Name” follow by “Time 
Updated” 

 

If reception failed, the clock says, ”Country Name” follow by “Time Not 
Updated”
