USING THE CLOCK
Any of the following procedures can be used to set current date and time.
Auto receive of the time calibration signal
Manual receive of the time calibration signal
Manual setting without using the time calibration signal
Auto Receive
The clock receives the time calibration signal eight time each day (2:00, 5:00, 8:00, 11:00, 14:00, 17:00, 20:00,
23:00).
A signal receive operation takes from two to ten minutes under good signal conditions.
A receive indicator shows the current status of the receive operation.

unit temperature reading and the sub-unit temperature reading. This make it possible to view both the indoor and
outdoor temperature on the main unit display.
Temperature Measurements
Both the main unit and the sub-unit take temperature measurements every 16 seconds.
The temperature display shows LO for temperatures below - 58 ¡F (-50¡C) and HI for temperatures above
158¡F (70 ¡C).
Though temperature readings are displayed up to 32¡F(0 ¡C).and greater than105¡C (41¡F), note that such
readings are actually outside the guaranteed temperature range of this clock.

TIME CALIBRATION SIGNAL RECEPTION PRECAUTIONS
With the Radio-Controlled Clock, you have the most accurate timepiece within the continent. It can receive the time
signal transmitted by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), which is regulated by 3 atomic
clocks and deviates less than 1 second within 3,000 years.
The NIST broadcasts the time signal (WWVB, 60kHz) continuously from Fort Collins, Colorado. This signal can be
received anywhere in the continental USA that long wave (AM) radio reception is possible with a portable radio.
It is expected that the signal can reach a distance of 2,000 miles from the transmitter. Therefore, your clock will
receive the signal within the broadcast range anywhere an AM signal can be received; generally the signal cannot
be picked up in massive metal and concrete structures unless near a window. In addition, some environmental
effects (see below) may affect the transmitting distance.
Signal reception is normally better at night than during the day.
Radio interference can make signal reception impossible.
Strong electrostatic charge can result in the wrong time being set.
If you are in an area where proper time calibration signal reception is impossible, the clock keeps time with the
precision noted in "SPECIFICATIONS".

2. The unit is default with DST activated. If it is used in regions do not observe DST, please follow the
following procedures to deactivate DST:
i. Hold down the DST/TIME ZONE button（ ） for about 4 seconds, the unit will give 3 short beeps with
"DST" and "On" blinking on the LCD display.
ii. Press the + or - button, the display will become "DST" and "Off to indicate DST being deactivated.
iii. Press the DST/TIME ZONE button（ ）again for normal operation.

Battery precautions
Keep batteries out of the reach of small children. If a battery is accidentally swallowed, contact your physician
immediately
Be sure to load the batteries with their positive (+) and negative (-) ends facing correctly.
Never charge the batteries that come with the clock.
Should batteries ever leak while in the clock, wipe out the fluid with a cloth, taking care not to let any get into
your skin.
Replace the batteries at least once a year, even if the current batteries are working properly.
The batteries that come with the clock lose some of their power during transport and storage.

Certain environmental cinditions can greally reduce the communication range.
Locating the sub-unit near a device that transmits radio signals using the same frequency as this product can
cause communication failure of this product.
Avoid using multiple product in the same area. Doing so can mixing of their signals.
