Operation
Reception of DCF radio signal
The product automatically starts to search for the
DCF radio signal. The radio icon

on the LCD
indicates that the product is searching for the radio
signal.
It is also possible to start reception of the DCF radio
signal manually on the product.
Press and keep pressed the WAVE button

for longer than 3 seconds. The product attempts
to receive the DCF radio time signal. This pro-
cess takes several minutes and is indicated in
the LC display by a flashing radio symbol .
Note:
If the product cannot pick up the DCF radio
signal on account of an error, it is also possible to
set the time manually. As soon as reception of the
DCF signal is successful, the manual settings are
overwritten.

Note:
Should you be in a country in which the DCF
signal can be received but the time is different to
your current local time, you can use the time zone
setting to have the product display your current local
time. If you find yourself in a country in which, for ex-
ample, the local time is an hour ahead of Central
European Time (CET), you set the time zone to +01.
The product is now still controlled by DCF but shows
the time as one hour ahead of CET.
