DETAILED SET-UP GUIDE 
 
I) BATTERY 

INSTALLATION 

 

Note:

 To avoid start-up problems make sure that the batteries do not spring free.

 

 
A) MOON PHASE CLOCK

 

 

1)  Remove the battery cover, 

located on the backside of the 
moon phase clock and directly 
below the function buttons.

 

2)  Observe the correct polarity, 

and install 2 AA batteries.

 

3) Replace the battery cover. 

 

Note:

 After the batteries have been installed a tone will sound, and all the 

LCD’s (Liquid Crystal Display) will briefly light up.  Then the indoor 
temperature, the date as “1/ 1”, the weekday as “MON”, and the Moon 
Phase will be displayed.  Also, the time will appear as “-:--” for 
approximately 1 minute.  Then the WWVB search is automatically initiated, 
and a tower icon appears and flashes with the time colon (no tower icon 
will appear if the WWVB is too weak to be detected).  While the WWVB 
search is being conducted various numbers will appear in the time display.  
The numbers “0”, “1”, or “8” will appear in the hour position and the 
seconds will appear in the minute display. The moon phase clock will either 
display the WWVB time, or discontinue the search after 10 minutes if the 
time is not found.  When the search is cancelled “-:--”will appear in the 
time LCD.  The moon phase clock will conduct a WWVB search every hour 
until the first signal is found.  Once the WWVB time is found, a search is 
automatically conducted nightly at midnight. If the signal is found at 
midnight, the tower icon will remain, if not, another search will take place 
every hour (up to 6:00 am) until the signal is found successfully. If no signal 
is found during this period, the tower icon will not appear and the clock will 
search again at 12:00 am the next night.
