Risk of electric shock
• Do not open the device or continue to operate it if it
becomes damaged.
• Do not use the product if the AC adapter, adapter cable
or power cable is damaged.
• Do not attempt to service or repair the product yourself.
Leave any and all service work to qualified experts.
Warning - Batteries
• When inserting batteries, note the correct polarity (+
and - markings) and insert the batteries accordingly.
Failure to do so could result in the batteries leaking or
exploding.
• Only use batteries that match the specified type. Keep
the instructions for the correct choice of batteries
included with the operating instructions of devices safe
for future reference.
• Before you insert the batteries, clean the battery contacts
and the polarity contacts.
• Do not allow children to change batteries without
supervision.
• Replace all the batteries in a set at the same time.
• Do not mix old and new batteries, or batteries of
different types or from different manufacturers.
• Remove the batteries from products that are not being
used for an extended period (unless these are being kept
ready for an emergency).
• Do not short-circuit batteries.
• Do not charge batteries.
• Do not burn batteries or heat them up.
• Never open, damage or swallow batteries or allow
them to enter the environment. They can contain toxic,
environmentally harmful heavy metals.
• Remove spent batteries from the product and dispose of
them without delay.
• Avoid storing, charging and using in extreme
temperatures and at extremely low atmospheric pressures
(such as at high altitudes).
• Ensure that batteries with damaged
housings do not come into contact
with water.
• Keep batteries out of the reach of
children.
4. Setup
Warning
• Only operate the product from a socket that has been
approved for the device. The socket must be installed
close to the product and must be easily accessible.
• Disconnect the product from the power supply using the
On/Off switch – if this is not available, unplug the power
cord from the socket.
• If using a multi-socket power strip, make sure that the
total power consumption of all connected devices does
not exceed the socket strip's maximum throughput
rating.
• If you will not be using the product for a prolonged
period, disconnect it from mains power.
4.1 Power supply
• Connect the power supply unit to the power supply
connection socket (12) on the back of the radio alarm
clock.
• Connect the mains lead on the radio alarm clock to a
properly installed socket.
• The radio alarm clock switches on automatically.
5. Operation
5.1 Automatic setting of the date / time according to
the DCF signal
• The alarm clock automatically starts searching for a DCF
radio signal. The DCF radio symbol (1) flashes during the
search process. This process can last between 3 and 5
minutes.
• When the radio signal is received, the date and time are
set automatically.
Note - setting the time
• If no DCF radio signal is received within the first few
minutes of the initial setup procedure, the search is
terminated. The radio symbol disappears.
• In the event of reception problems, we recommend
leaving the clock standing overnight since the
interference signals are generally fewer in number at
this time.
• Meanwhile, you can carry out a manual search for the
DCF radio signal at a different location or set the date
and time manually.
