5. Getting started
5.1 Insert the batteries
• Open the battery compartment by lifting up the holder and pulling down the battery compartment lid. Insert two new AA
1.5 V batteries, polarity as illustrated.
• The device will alert you with a beep and all LCD segments will be displayed for a short moment. Close the battery cover
again.
5.2 Radio-controlled time reception
• The clock will now scan the DCF frequency signal and the DCF symbol flashes on the display. When the time code is suc-
cessfully received after some minutes, the radio-controlled time and the DCF symbol will be shown steadily on the display.
In Daylight Saving Time S is shown on the display.
• If there is no reception, you can start the initialisation manually. Press and hold the
WAVE
button for three seconds.
• The DCF symbol flashes.
• Interrupt the reception by pressing the
WAVE
button again for three seconds. The DCF reception symbol disappears.
• The DCF reception always takes place daily at 1:00, 2:00, 3:00, 4:00 and 5:00 o'clock in the morning.
Radio controlled clock with indoor temperature
• 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.
5.3 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 adjust-
ment 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.
• During night-time, the atmospheric interference is usually less severe. A single daily reception is adequate to keep the accu-
racy deviation under 1 second.
