Setting additional times
The clock as well as normal time display on the DCF-time show two-time display functions.
a) International time function
The international time function displays the time in another time zone in the main display. This feature makes
it easy to switch to a different time zone when travelling. To switch to the international time in the main display

For the international time, only the hours (unlike the home time) can be adjusted. It is not neces-
sary to set the minutes.
b) Dual time display
The dual time display is useful when one is at home, but needs to know the time in another time zone. Since
the second time is also shown on the display, for example, it is easier to communicate with foreign countries
at the right time, without having to continuously convert the time.

display.

Display Lighting and Time Projection
☞
To achieve a sharp projection image, the clock should be set up at least 1.5 m away from the
projection surface.
• Press the SNOOZE/LIGHT button on the top edge of the housing to turn on the clock face light and the
time projection for a few seconds.
• If the power cable is plugged in and the switch CONTINUE PROJECTION is activated, the time remains

• To turn the projection 180° (e.g. for projection onto the ceiling), press the FLIP button.

Troubleshooting

The clock does not synchronise or only has temporary reception:
• The distance to the DCF transmitter is too long or restricted by geographical conditions.
• Relocate the product; switch off interfering devices such as TV sets, computers or microwave ovens.
• Avoid a location in the vicinity of large metal surfaces, which may shield the radio signals. Windows with a
vapour deposited metal layer can also infl uence the signal reception.
• Place the clock near a window for synchronisation, and align the front or back side in the direction of
Frankfurt (Germany).
• Leave the clock switched on overnight to avoid atmospheric interference.
The displayed temperatures are not correct:
• The clock is exposed to direct sunlight.
• The clock is located too close to a heat source (heater, electronic device, etc.)
The device does not react when buttons are pressed, the display shows strange sym-
bols, or the display is blank:
• Remove the batteries and wait a few minutes before you reinsert them. By doing this, the built-in micro
processor will be reset and restarted.
Maintenance and Care
Apart from replacing the battery, the device requires no maintenance. Only clean the exterior of the device
with a soft, dry cloth or a brush.
Never use caustic cleaning agents or chemical solutions, as they could damage the surface of the casing.
Do not press on the sensitive display surface.
