Receiving the time signal

Receiving the time signal
When the batteries are inserted in the radio-controlled clock, all displays are shown
for a brief moment and a beep is heard. The measured room temperature is displayed
shortly afterwards.
The device then switches to receiving-mode, during which the number of
radio waves indicates the quality of the reception: The more radio waves
shown on the display, the better is the reception.
As soon as the signal has been received in sufficient strength, the display also shows
‚ the time,
‚ the date,
‚ the day of the week, and
‚ the current moon phase is shown.
The radio-controlled clock automatically switches to receiving mode several times
every night. During this process, the displayed time is compared with that received
from the time signal transmitter and, if necessary, corrected.
If a sufficiently strong signal has not been received, the radio-controlled clock will
cancel the receiving process after a few minutes and the radio tower symbol goes out.
The receiving process is started again at a later point in time.
In this case, the time proceeds as usual (beginning with the start time of "00:00").

Checklist when data is missing in the display

1. Check whether the location of the radio-controlled clock is suitable, see
"Choosing a location".
2. Restart reception manually, see "Manually starting signal reception".
3. Wait until the radio-controlled clock automatically switches to receiving mode at
a later point in time. The reception is usually better at night.
4. Manually perform the settings if reception is not possible at your location, see

"Setting the time and date manually".

Setting the time and date manually
If there is more than approx. 30 seconds between two pushes of a button,
the setting process automatically ends and you will have to repeat it.
1. Press and hold the SET button until the indicator for the 12- and 24-hour time
format blinks on the display.
