To set up your clock simply install one fresh AA, LR6 ALKALINE battery. Due to the
nature of long wave radio signals it is normally not possible to receive a signal during the
day so it is best to install the battery late in the evening. Select your time zone by
pressing one of the four time zone buttons
PT-Pacific Time
MT-Mountain Time
CT-Central Time
ET-Eastern Time
If no time zone is selected the clock will default to Pacific Time. Another time zone can
be selected after the clock has set itself. Your clock can only set itself to one of the four
time zones stated above. For time zones outside of PT, MT, CT or ET you must manually
set the time using the Manual Time set button on the back of the movement.
Select a location to place your radio controlled clock here it will be at least six feet away
from a TV, computer, air conditioner or other household electrical appliances. The
optimal location is near a window. Windows facing Colorado provide the best signal. The
WWVB time signal will easily penetrate masonry and wood framed buildings. WWVB
will penetrate almost every residential building and most steel buildings if they have
adequate windows. It is not possible, however, for WWVB to penetrate most indoor
shopping malls and rooms in the center of large office buildings that do not have
windows. In buildings that WWVB cannot penetrate you may set the time using the
manual time set button. When the clock is exposed to the WWVB signal it will
automatically set the hands to the exact time.
