C: Housing:
C 1: Battery compartment
C 2: Power socket
C 3: USB port
6. Getting started
6.1 Inserting the batteries
• The batteries will operate as a backup power source in case of power failure.
• For a permanent projection, to use the charging function and to conserve battery
power, use the supplied power adapter.
• Open the battery compartment and insert two new batteries 1,5 V AA, polarity as
illustrated.
• Close the battery compartment again.
• Insert the adapter into the jack at the device and connect the power adapter to a
wall socket.
• Important! Make sure that your household voltage is not more than 240V! Other-
wise your device may be damaged.
• The device is ready for use. All LCD segments will light up for about 2 seconds.
• The clock will scan the DCF frequency signal and the DCF symbol flashes on the
LCD. When the signal is received successfully after 3-5 minutes, the radio con-
trolled time and the DCF symbol appears permanently.
• In Daylight Saving Time "S" is shown on the LCD.
• If the reception fails, activate the reception manually by holding °C / °F / WAVE but-
ton for 2 seconds.
• In case the clock cannot detect the DCF-signal (for example due to disturbances,
transmitting distance, etc.), the time can be set manually. The clock will then work
as a normal quartz clock. (see Manual setting of clock and calendar).
Note for radio-controlled time DCF
The time base for the radio-controlled time is a caesium atomic clock operated by the
Physikalisch Technische Bundesanstalt Braunschweig. It has a time deviation of less
than one second in one million years. The time is coded and transmitted from Main-
flingen near Frankfurt via frequency signal DCF-77 (77.5 kHz) and has a transmitting

range of approximately 1,500 km. Your radio-controlled clock receives this signal and
converts it to show the precise time. Changeover from summer time or winter time is
automatic. The quality of the reception depends mainly on the geographic location.
The quality of the reception depends mainly on the geographic location. Normally
there should be no reception problems within a 1,500 km radius around Frankfurt.
Please take note of the following:
• The recommended distance to any interfering sources like computer monitors or TV
sets is at least 1.5 - 2 meters.
• Inside ferro-concrete rooms (basements, superstructures), the received signal is nat-
urally weakened. In extreme cases, please place the unit close to a window to
improve the reception.
• During night-time, the atmospheric interference is usually less severe and reception
is possible in most cases. A single daily reception is adequate to keep the accuracy
deviation under 1 second.
7. Operation
7.1 Manual setting of clock and calendar
• Hold the MODE button for 2 seconds in normal mode. The year is flashing. Press
the UP or DOWN button to adjust the year. Press and hold the UP or DOWN button
for fast mode.
• The setting sequence is shown as follows: month, day, hour and minutes. Press
the UP or DOWN button to make the desired settings.
• The instrument will quit the setting mode, if there is no button used within 30
seconds.
• The manually set time will be overwritten by the DCF time when the signal is
received successfully
• Press the UP button to choose 12 or 24 HR system.
• In 12 HR system AM (before noon) or PM (after noon) appears on the display.
7.2 Day-of-week/calendar week
