"Disposal").
Receiving the time signal
When you insert the batteries into the radio-controlled clock, all the indicators are
displayed for a moment followed by several beeps. The measured room temperature is
displayed shortly afterwards.
− Press and hold the
(press
to interrupt radio reception again).
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 and
the weekday.
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 on the display
1.
Check whether the location of the radio-controlled clock is suitable, see
"Choosing a location".
2.
Restart reception manually, see "Starting signal reception manually".
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".
