• Don’t start reception in a moving article such as

vehicle or train.

• During the night, the atmospheric disturbances are

usually less severe and reception is possible in

most cases. A single daily reception is adequate to

keep the accuracy within 1 second.

NOTE:

It is recommended that for the first use of the clock,

you set the clock manually and then allow the Radio

Control signal to update the time setting each day.

CARE OF YOUR CLOCK

• Replace the battery promptly when necessary and

store the clock without batteries when not in use. It

is time to replace the batteries when the LCD display

becomes dim.

• Clean your clock with a soft cloth or paper towel. Do

not use corrosive cleaners or chemical solutions

on the clock.

• Avoid putting the clock in a highly humid environment

such as poolside or in a bathroom.

• Do not expose the clock to direct sunlight, extreme

hot or cold temperatures.

NOTE:

Attention! Please dispose of used unit and batteries in

an ecologically safe manner.

• When the alarm is sounding, pressing [SNOOZE/

LIGHT] can stop the current sound and advance to

enter snooze period.

• When the Alarm function is sounding, if you do not

activate the snooze button the 4-step crescendo

alarm will automatically snooze once every 4 minutes

for a total of 3 times. The alarm duration is 60

seconds.

ABOUT THE MOON PHASE:

The unit has 8 different moon phases. It will change

according to the lunar calendar.

1. New moon

5. Full moon

2. Waxing crescent 6. Waning Gibbous

3. First quarter

7. Last quarter

4. Waxing Gibbous 8. Waning crescent

NOTE:

The moon and stars are displayed only when the

weather is fine and in between 8:00PM to the next day

6:00AM. The weather condition is based on the

atmospheric pressure data collected.

WEATHER FORECAST

The built-in barometer can notice atmospheric pressure

changes. Based on the data collected, it can predict

the weather condition in the next 12-24 hours. The

effective coverage area ranges from 20 to 30 miles.

NOTE:

1. The accuracy of a general pressure-based weather

forecast is about 70 to 75%.

2. The weather forecast is meant for next 12 to 24

hours. It may not necessarily reflect the current

situation.

3. The sun can only appear from 6:00AM to 8:00PM.

ATOMIC CLOCK FEATURE

NOTE:

At any time, you can press and hold the [°C/ °F]

button for three seconds to make the clock seek the

atomic radio signal and set itself automatically. The

signal strength indicator will blink on the display as the

clock seeks out the signal.

In case of no display on LCD while inserting batteries,

use a pin to press the RESET key to activate the clock.

When the signal icon on the clock flashes, this indicates

that the clock is receiving the radio signals. When the

time code is received the signal icon turns on. If the

signal icon does not appear at all and the time is not

yet set, please take note of the following:

• We recommend keeping the minimum distance of 8

feet from any interfering source like TV’s or computer

monitors.

• Within concrete rooms (basements, superstructures,

office buildings), the received signal will be

weakened. In extreme cases, the unit should be

placed close to a window.

• Avoid placing the unit on or close to any metal

objects or surfaces.
