Setup

Remove the protective film from the weather station and the outdoor sensor. Open the battery compartment of the
outdoor sensor and insert the included batteries in the correct polarity. The LED indicator will briefly light up and the
display will show the temperature. Close the battery compartment.
Open the battery compartment of the weather station and insert the included batteries in the correct polarity. Close the
battery compartment. The weather station will now receive the signal from the outdoor sensor. This process may take
several minutes to complete. If reception is successful, the selected channel

and the current outdoor temperature

will appear. After successful reception of the signal for the outdoor sensor, the reception of the DCF77 time signal will
begin and the radio control indicator

will blink on the display next to the time. All buttons except the

SNOOZE /

LIGHT

button

are disabled during the reception process. If reception fails after 10 minutes, please set the time

manually. The weather station will reattempt reception at 04:00 and 05:00 and, if reception is successful, will correct the
set time.

Note: Please do not move the weather station or the sensor during the reception process.

If the reception attempt is successful, the radio control indicator

will appear permanently on the display and the

correct time, date, day of the week and the times of sunrise, sunset, moonrise and moonset will be set automatically.

DST

will appear on the display next to the radio control indicator

during daylight saving time.

Note:

If you are in a country, in which the clock displays the wrong time even though it can receive the time signal,

please use the time zone adjustment to use your alarm clock in a time zone other than the standard time zone (UTC+1 =
Central European Time). Set the difference in hours (- 01 for example) to the desired time zone. Restart radio reception
after changing this setting. Your clock receives the DCF77 time signal but will show the adjusted time (1 hour less for
example).

Note:

Always hang or place the sensor in an upright orientation.

Reception problems

The DCF77 radio signal is transmitted from a location near Frankfurt am Main and can be received within a radius of
approximately 1500 km around Frankfurt am Main. However, there are some obstacles and sources of interference,
which may substantially hinder reception. If your weather station does not correctly receive the DCF77 radio signal,
please hang or place the weather station in a different location at your site. Please note that devices such as computers,
telephones, radios and televisions may cause electromagnetic radiation which can interfere with the DCF77 signal
reception. Other possible detriments to reception are: strong building insulation (metal building materials), nearby
mountains or atmospheric interference. It may also be necessary to replace the batteries.

Restarting radio signal reception

Manually restart the radio signal reception by pressing and holding the -/ -button

for 3 seconds.
