INSTRUCTIONS
MANUAL TIME SETTING
On rare occasions, the clock may not connect to the
radio signal within 24 hours because of the strength of
the signal or geographic location.
The clock can be set manually and used as a regular
quartz wall clock until it finds the radio signal.
When all hands stop at 12:00 you may advance the
clock manually. Press and hold either Manual Set (M.SET)
button until it reaches the correct time. When the clock
successfully receives the signal, it will move to and keep
the proper time. (See Figure 1)
CLOCK LOCATION GUIDELINES
WWVB is the National Institute of Standards and
Technology (NIST) radio station in Fort Collins, CO. The
WWVB time signal will easily penetrate masonry and
wood frame buildings. The signal is obtainable in most
steel buildings, providing there are adequate windows.
It is not possible, however, for the signal to penetrate
rooms in the center of large buildings that do not have
windows. In buildings that the signal cannot penetrate,
you may set the time using the manual time set
button. When the clock is exposed to the signal, it will
automatically set the hands to the exact time.
The clock should not be placed within 5 feet of any
items that can interfere with reception: electronic
appliances including televisions, radios, microwaves,
computers, another radio controlled clock, phones or
stereos.
Large metal surfaces such as aluminum or steel siding,
metal counters or cabinets might also affect the
reception.
The best reception will be on a wall near a window that
is nearest to the direction of Fort Collins, Colorado. Due

possible to receive a signal during the day, so it is best
to install the battery late in the evening.
