Battery safety information

DANGER TO LIFE! Batteries
are not intended for children. If accidentally
swallowed seek immediate medical attention!
CAUTION! EXPLOSION HAZARD! Never
recharge non-rechargeable batteries, do not
short-circuit and / or open batteries!
Never throw batteries into fire or water!
Do not exert mechanical loads to batteries!
Risk of battery leakage!
In the event of a battery leak, immediately
remove it from the device to prevent damage!
Avoid contact with the skin, eyes and mucous
membranes! In the event of contact with bat-
tery acid, thoroughly flush the affected area
with plenty of clean water and seek immediate
medical attention!
Only use the same type of batteries! Do not mix
used and new batteries!
Avoid extreme conditions and temperatures
which may impact batteries, e.g. on radiators /
in direct sunlight!
Remove the batteries from the device if they
have not been used for a long period!
Risk of equipment damage!
Only use the specified battery type!
When inserting the battery ensure that it is
inserted the right way round! This is shown in
the battery compartment!
If necessary, clean the battery and device
contacts before inserting the battery!
Remove dead batteries from the device
immediately!

Before Initial Use

Remove the protective foil before first use.

Setting up Devices

Stand the radio-controlled clock on its folding
stand or mount it on the wall.
23
Place the clock on a level, horizontal surface.
Do not place the device anywhere near to sources
of interference such as televisions, computers,
thick walls, etc. These may hinder reception of
the radio signal.

Inserting or replacing batteries

The battery symbol
play if the batteries are too weak. Make sure you
replace the batteries at the earliest opportunity.
The radio-controlled LCD wall clock starts to receive
the radio time signal as soon as the batteries are
inserted.
Note: Do not alter the position of the radio-controlled
clock during reception of the signal. This may disrupt
reception.
Radio time signal (DCF):
The DCF signal (time signal transmission) consists
of time pulses broadcast from one of the most accu-
rate clocks in the world. It is situated near Frankfurt /
Main, Germany.
Your radio-controlled clock receives these signals
under ideal conditions up to a distance of approx.
1,500 km around Frankfurt / Main. Reception of the
radio signal generally takes approx. 3–10 minutes.
If it does not work properly, restart the radio-
controlled clock. To do this, keep the WAVE
button pressed for approx. 3 seconds.
19
Reception can be considerably impaired by obstacles
(e.g. concrete walls) or sources of interference (e.g.
other electrical devices). If necessary, change the
location of the radio clock (e.g. by putting it near a
window) if you have problems with reception.
