Central Time
Manual Set Time
On rare occasions in certain areas, the clock may not be able to
receive the radio controlled time signal due to the strength of the
signal or the geographic location.
In this case, the clock can be set manually and used as a regular
quartz wall clock.
Note:
Allow up to five nights for the clock to receive the WWVB signal
before
manually setting the time.
Set the clock manually:
1.
Remove battery for 15 minutes and press the
Manual Set Tab
20
times.
2.
After 15 minutes, insert the battery and allow the clock to spin to
12:00, 4:00 or 8:00.
3.
Hold the
Manual Set Tab
and the hand will spin. Continue
holding until the correct time is achieved.
Note:
You can only set the clock manually for about 2 minutes
after the battery is inserted. If the clock receives the WWVB time
signal, this signal will override manually set time.
Daylight Saving Time
The National Institute of Standards and Technology and WWVB encode
a special DST “bit” in the WWVB transmission for DST. Your clock will
read this information and automatically advance the hands one hour in
the spring and eleven hours in the fall.
Arizona:
If you live in an area that does not recognize DST, you must
press the DST button one time only to turn OFF.
