RADIO CONTROLLED CLOCK with TEMPERATURE & HUMIDITY

Remove the battery door by releasing the battery cover latch. Insert four new AA size batteries as per indication marked on the battery compartment. 3. Once the batteries are inserted, all the segments of the LCD will show briefly before entering the radio controlled time reception mode. 4. The RC Clock will automatically start scanning for the radio controlled time signal after 10 seconds. 5. The default time zone is Pacific zone. If you are in this time zone, changing is not required. Otherwise, change to the correct time zone (Refer to ‘Select the Time Zone’.) Note: If there is no display on the LCD after inserting the battery, replace with four new batteries or press RESET key by using a metal wire. In some cases, you may not receive a signal immediately. Due to atmospheric disturbances, the best reception often occurs during night time.

If the RC clock receives signal successfully, a Sync-time symbol appears on LCD. The unit has already received the time signal. Otherwise, the signal strength symbol will disappear from the LCD display. Note: 1. You may use the RECEIVE button to receive the time signal manually. Be caution of using the RECEIVE mode. The receive mode will be off automatically after 6-12 minutes. Receive mode consumes more battery power and reduces battery life. 2. In an environment with radio frequency interference, the unit may not maintain the communication link and will resume to normal when interference stops. 3. Pressing SNOOZE key for 8 seconds can stop the current RC reception.

MANUALLY SETTING THE TIME AND DATE If the clock does not receive the time signal successfully, you can set the time manually. As soon as the transmitter is received again, the clock will automatically synchronize with the received time. 1. Press and hold “SET” key for 2 seconds until HOUR digit flashes. 2. Press “ADJUST” key to increase the value of the flashing digit. 3. Press “SET” key again to step the setting items. The sequence is: Hour > Minute > Second >12/24 HR > Month > Date > Year > Day Language 4. Press the ADJ key to select the day language: GB=English, FR=French, DE=German, ES=Spanish, IT=Italian 5 Press “MODE” key to exit the setting mode.
