Press and hold the CHANNEL button on the base station for three seconds. The last registered transmitter (channel) will be
cancelled and "- -.-" appears on the display.
5.3 Radio-controlled time reception

Radio controlled clock with outdoor temperature and indoor climate
5.4 Note on radio-controlled time
• The time is transmitted from an atomic clock near Frankfurt am Main by a DCF-77 (77.5 kHz) frequency signal with a range
of about 1,500 km. Your radio-controlled clock receives the signal, converts it and always shows the exact time. The
adjustment of Daylight Saving Time and Standard Time is also automatic.
• During night-time, the atmospheric interference is usually less severe. A single daily reception is adequate to keep the
accuracy deviation under 1 second. In extreme cases, please place the unit close to a window to improve reception.
