Check that the 

Time Zone 

selected correctly reflects your location. Adjust the time zone in the 

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 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 correct 

Time Zone

.  

 

Check whether the DST indicator is AUTOMATIC, ALWAYS ON or ALWAYS OFF. If the indicator is OFF the 

clock will not change. 

Note: There are three Daylight Saving Time Settings:

 

 

AUTOMATIC DST ON- Clock gains 1 hour in spring and loses 1 hour in the fall. 

 

ALWAYS DST OFF- Clock remains in Standard Time all year long. 

 

ALWAYS DST ON- Clock remains in Daylight Saving Time all year long. 

 

Check for fresh 

batteries

. Without proper batteries, the antenna will have a harder time picking up 

the signal. 

 

Position the atomic clock in a window (

with the front or back) facing Ft. Collins, Colorado and leave for 

up to five nights. If you do not have a window facing this direction, position the clock near an outside 

wall and point the unit in this general direction.
