• Interrupt the reception by pressing the
DOWN
button again for three
seconds. The DCF reception symbol disappears.
• The DCF reception always takes place daily at 3:00 o'clock in the
morning.
• There are three different reception states:
flashing – Reception is active
remains – Reception is successful
disappears – No reception
• If the clock cannot detect the DCF-signal (e.g. due to interference,
transmitting distance, etc.), the time can be set manually.
6.3 Note on radio-controlled time
• The time is transmitted from an atomic clock near Frankfurt am Main
by a DCF-77 (77.5 kHz) frequency signal with a range of about 1,500
km. Your radio-controlled clock receives the signal, converts it and
always shows the exact time. The adjustment of Daylight Saving
Time and Standard Time is also automatic.
• Make sure to avoid the vicinity of any source of interference such as
computer screens, TV sets or solid metal objects. Within concrete
walls (reinforced with steel) such as basements, the received signal
is naturally weakened. In extreme cases, please place the unit close
to a window to improve reception.
