CAUTION! RISK OF EXPLO-
SION! Use batteries of the indi-
cated type only. Otherwise there is
a risk of an explosion.
When inserting the batteries, ensure the correct
polarity!
If necessary clean the contacts on the batteries
and on the device itself before inserting them.
Remove exhausted batteries from the device
immediately. Otherwise the batteries are more
likely to leak.
If you disregard the above instructions and
advice, your batteries may discharge beyond
their minimum voltage, thus increasing the
chance of leakage. If the batteries in your
device leak, remove them immediately to
prevent the device from being damaged.
Keep batteries away from children; do not
throw batteries in the fire, short-circuit batteries
or take them apart.
Avoid contact with the skin, eyes and mucous
membranes. Any parts of the body coming into
contact with battery acid should be rinsed off
with copious amounts of water and / or a doctor
contacted if necessary!
Dispose of batteries in accordance with the
disposal instructions.
Q
Before Initial Use
Unscrew the transport securing device on the
back of the box in order to remove the device.
Remove the protective foil before first use.
Q
Setting up Devices
Stand the radio-controlled clock on its base 26
or mount it on the wall.
Place the clock on a level, horizontal surface.
Do not place the device anywhere near to sources
of interference such as televisions, computers,
thick walls, etc. These may hinder reception of
the radio signal.
Inserting or replacing batteries
The battery symbol 3 appears in the LC dis-
play if the batteries are too weak. Make sure you
replace the batteries at the earliest opportunity.
The radio-controlled LCD wall clock starts to receive
the radio time signal as soon as the batteries are
inserted.
Note: Do not alter the position of the radio-controlled
clock during reception of the signal. This may disrupt
reception.
Radio time signal (DCF):
The DCF signal (time signal transmission) consists
of time pulses broadcast from one of the most accu-
rate clocks in the world. It is situated near Frankfurt /
Main, Germany.
Your radio-controlled clock receives these signals
under ideal conditions up to a distance of approx.
1,500 km around Frankfurt / Main. Reception of the
radio signal generally takes approx. 3–10 minutes.
If it does not work properly, restart the radio-
controlled clock. To do this, keep the WAVE
button
21 pressed for approx. 3 seconds.
Reception can be considerably impaired by obstacles
(e.g. concrete walls) or sources of interference (e.g.
other electrical devices). If necessary, change the
location of the radio clock (e.g. by putting it near a
window) if you have problems with reception.
Q
Operation
Q
Reception of DCF radio signal
The radio-controlled clock automatically starts to
search for the DCF radio signal. The radio icon
2
on the LCD indicates that the clock is searching for the
radio signal.
It is also possible to start reception of the DCF radio
signal manually on the clock.
