RADIO CONTROLLED ANALOG CLOCK
INSTRUCTION MANUAL
Quick Setup Instructions
Welcome to the world of atomic timekeeping technology. We hope you will enjoy
the convenience of never having to set your clock again and the confidence of
knowing exactly what time it is
.
•
Insert 1 new AA, LR6 1.5 volt ALKALINE battery into the digital clock battery
compartment (the lower battery compartment) according to the polarity
marked on the case, then 1 new battery AA, LR6 1.5 V into the analog clock
battery compartment according to the polarity marked on the case.
•
Once the battery is installed, the clock will begin searching for a signal. For
the initial setting, it is recommended to stand the clock in an upright position
near a window. Within five minutes the clock will either receive the WWVB
signal and set itself to the exact time (for the default Pacific Time Zone), or it
will determine that the signal is not receivable at its current location and time
of day. The clock will fast-forward the hands to the 4, 8, or 12 o’clock
position immediately and search for WWVB at specific time each day until a
signal is received.
Note:
If the time is manually set, the clock will continue to periodically
search for a signal and automatically reset the hands when the signal is
received.
•
Once the clock has received the WWVB signal, press the time zone button
to select your time zone. If you are in the Pacific Time Zone, no change is
needed and you are ready to hang your clock.
If you are not in the Pacific Time Zone, select your time zone by pressing
one of the four time zone buttons PT-Pacific Time, MT-Mountain Time, CT-
Central Time, ET-Eastern Time and holding this button down for 5 seconds.
If multiple buttons are pressed, the clock will set to the time zone selected
last. If no time zone is selected the clock will default to Pacific Time. If you
live in an area that does not recognize DST (Arizona) you must press the
DST button (unmarked – just above and between the Central and Eastern
time zone buttons) for one second to deactivate your clock’s DST program.
For time zones outside of PT, MT, CT or ET you must manually set the time
using the Manual Time set button on the back of the movement. (See
instructions below).
Please Note
: WWVB time will over ride a manual setting.
