Position Clock
For the best reception, please place clock on a wall that faces
Ft. Collins, Colorado. The antenna is best positioned for signal
reception when there is only one wall or window between the
clock and outside.
Choose a location 6 feet or more from electronics such as
cordless phones, wireless gaming systems, televisions,
microwaves, routers, baby monitors, etc., which can prevent
signal reception.
Large office buildings, schools, or hospitals may not receive
the WWVB time signal in every room.
Buildings with a metal roof may interfere with reception.
Note:
We recommend that you change the battery every 24
months to maintain accuracy. Remove the battery when the clock
will not be in use for an extended period.
Manual Set Time
On rare occasions, the clock may
not be able to utilize the radio
controlled function because of the
strength of the signal or the
geographic location. In this case,
the clock can be set manually and
used as a regular quartz wall clock.
Note:
Allow up to five nights for the clock to receive the WWVB
signal
before
manually setting the time.
Set the clock manually:
1.
Hold the SET button for 3+ seconds to activate the manual
mode. There are two ways to move the minute hand forward.
Hold the SET button down to move the minute hand
forward consistently.
Alternatively, press the SET button rapidly (more than once
per second) to move the minute hand forward step by step
(in minute increments).
Use these features to move the minute hand forward until
the correct time is set. The clock will automatically leave
manual mode after the SET button is not pressed for 6+
seconds.
