Atomic Clock

AcuRite atomic clocks use a radio-controlled signal to synchronize to the

correct time broadcast by the National Institute of Standards and Technology

(NIST) Radio Station WWVB, located near Fort Collins, Colorado. WWVB

broadcasts the current time and date with split-second accuracy.
The atomic clock and calendar will maintain the correct time and date, and

automatically update for daylight saving time to provide the most accurate

timekeeping standard possible.
Please note: Signal reception is normally better at night and when the weather

is clear. The atomic signal generally takes a few hours to synchronize, so it is

important to manually set the time and date after powering on the display.

Set the Time & Date

Press the “SET” button, located on the back of the display unit, to enter SET

MODE. Once in set mode, the preference you are currently setting will blink on

the display.
To adjust the currently selected (flashing) item, press and release the “+” or

“–“ buttons (press and HOLD to fast adjust).
To save your adjustments, press and release the “SET” button again to adjust

the next preference. The preference set order is as follows:
TIME ZONE ( PST MST CST EST AST HAST AKST)

DST (Daylight Saving Time ON or OFF)

CLOCK HOUR

CLOCK MINUTE

CALENDAR MONTH

CALENDAR DATE

CALENDAR YEAR
You will automatically exit SET MODE if no buttons are pressed for 30 seconds.

Enter setup mode at any time by pressing the “SET” button.

Select Degrees Fahrenheit or Celsius

To select between degrees Fahrenheit (ºF) or Celsius (ºC) temperature units,

press the “ºF/ºC” button located on the back of the display unit.
