Due to its nature, the radio-signal can be received indoors. However, it
should be noted that the signal is weakened by the presence of concrete and
metal. Therefore the clock must not be installed in concrete basements or
inside metal cages. In large concrete office buildings or apartments, the
clock should be located near a window for better reception. Also avoid
installing the clock near strong magnetic fields or other devices that
generate a lot of electrical noise (e.g. engines).

Setting
Refer to the illustrations on page 2 of this manual.
• Insert batteries in the battery compartment [G] (see §10).
Time setting
• Choose a location for the clock (refer to §5). The clock can be wall
mounted or placed on a desktop using the included stand.
• Wait until the clock receives the synchronization signal from the master
clock. The clock will attempt to contact the master clock for 7 minutes. It
will automatically synchronize once every day at a fixed time (2:00 in the
morning). Note that the received signal is usually stronger at night time.
• During synchronization, the DCF-icon flashes. Once synchronized, the
icon is fixed on the display.
• When the clock doesn’t receive the radio-signal, it will not show the DCF-
icon and starts running showing the wrong time. The clock can be set to
the correct time manually (see below).
• To force wave detection, press and hold the CF- button [F] for ±5s. Note
that frequent use of this feature will shorten battery life time.
• To stop wave detection, press the CF- button [F] for ±2s.
• Default the clock is in 24h format. Press the UP-button [E] to switch to
12h format (AM or PM indicated in front of the time). Press and hold the
CF- button [F] for ±5s to re-synchronize the clock.
Setting the date / clock manually
• The date and time can be set manually when the clock is used in a place
without DCF reception (e.g. a basement) or in case synchronization is
temporarily not possible. Note that because of atmospheric conditions at
night time the DCF signal is stronger and travels further.
• Press and hold the SET-button [C] for ±5s. The display shows the year
(flashing).
• To change the setting, use the UP-[E] or DOWN-[F] button. Press the
SET-button [C] to confirm and move to the next adjustable parameter.
Parameter sequence = year – month – date – day language* - hour –
minutes – time zone offset - exit
* language options are: EN (English), GE (German), DA (Danish), ES
(Spanish), NE (Dutch), FR (French) or IT (Italian).
• If no key is pressed within 8s the clock returns to normal operation.
