Supported Time Zones 

 

 

This clock has 7 Time Zones: AST=Atlantic, EST= Eastern, CST= Central,  

MST= Mountain, PST= Pacific, AKT= Alaska, HAT=Hawaiian The digital clock 

works in North America.  

 

Outside of North America, the digital clock will not receive a WWVB signal, but 

will keep time like a quartz clock. 

 

Dashes, HHH, LLL or Stuck Indoor Temperature 

 

Explanation: These symbols are error messages indication the indoor sensor is 

outside of its readable range. For indoor readings, this is generally a power related 

issue.  

 

 

This is generally a power related issue. 

 

Batteries

 may be overpowered or underpowered. Remove batteries from atomic 

digital clock.  

 

Press any button 20 times. Leave the digital clock unpowered for 1-2 hours.  

 

Insert fresh alkaline batteries with correct polarity.  

 

If the indoor temperature is still dashes or HHH, LLL, the digital clock may need 

replacement. 

 

Does the clock have a backlight? 

 

 

No, as this clock is battery operated there is no backlight. 

 

Time is off by hours 

 

 

Check to see if th

WWVB

 Tower icon appears on the atomic digital clock. If not, 

the digital clock has not received a WWVB time signal in the past 24 hours.  

 

Reposition the digital clock with the front or back facing Colorado. 

 

Check that the 

Time Zone 

selected correctly reflects your location. Adjust the 

time zone in th

Program Menu.

 

 

Check that the DST indicator is correct for your location (most areas observe 

DST so this should be ON). Adjust the DST indicator in the 

Program Menu.

 

 

Large buildings, metal roofed buildings and buildings or rooms full of electrical 

and/or radio equipment make it difficult to receive the WWVB time signal. 

 

Daylight Saving Time 

 

 

Dependent on your location, position of the clock in your home, and atmospheric 

interference, it may take up to 5 nights for the change from Daylight Savings 

Time to Standard Time and vice-versa to occur. 

 

Check for a 

WWVB

 Tower Icon showing on the atomic digital clock. The tower 

icon indicates you have received the WWVB signal from Ft Collins CO in the past 

24 hours.  

 

Check that the clock is in the correc

Time Zone
