About Intelli-Time

®

Your new digital clock is equipped with Intelli-Time

®

 technology which is pre-programmed 

with the correct time and date. Intelli-Time

®

 instructs the clock to set itself once batteries are 

installed. The Intelli-Time

®

 feature requires an internal memory battery to operate correctly. 

This battery is located in the Intelli-Time

®

 memory battery compartment on the back of the 

clock and is pre-installed at the factory. We suggest replacement of the backup battery every 

5 years. We recommend the replacement of backup battery in 1-2 years if the unit is not 

powered on for a long period of time. Do not replace the memory battery unless the clock is 

powered and the display is operating with the correct time.

BATTERY INSTALLATION: 

Setting the time zone and daylight saving time:

1. Press, then release the “TIME ZONE”  button on the back of the digital clock until it 
  reaches the desired time zone position. You will see the time zone on the front of the clock 
  in the upper right hand corner.
    TIME ZONES
  AST: Atlantic

    EST: Eastern

    CST: Central

2. You must also determine which Daylight Saving time setting to use on the back of the 

  unit; new or old. Due to possible future changes in DST, this unit is equipped with a 

  selection switch to choose between the traditional DST setting (OLD) or the new DST time

  change dates. You may slide the button to the left for (OLD), middle for (NEW) or right 

  for (OFF). “DAYLIGHT ST” will appear on the screen when Daylight Saving Time is observed.

Changing the Backup Battery

Do not change the backup batteries unless the main 4 “AA” batteries are working. This 

will prevent the clock from being without power, and the internal calendar memory will 

function properly.

When changing the backup batteries, remove the battery compartment cover on the back of 

the unit. The backup battery compartment is inside. Open the backup battery cover. Replace 

the 1 “3V” CR2032 lithium battery with a fresh one and replace the cover.

During shipping a static charge may build up. It will NOT damage the product but may 
prevent the display from showing. To restore the display you need to reset the unit. To 
do this, simply look at the back of the clock. You will see a small hole that is the RESET 
button. Use the end of a paper clip to press the button. This will restore the display.
