Thank you for your purchase. The utmost care has gone into the design and
manufacture of your clock. Please read these instructions carefully and keep
them for future reference.
This clock automatically synchronizes itself to the US Government's National
Institute of Standards and Technology radio signal from Fort Collins, Colorado. The
WWVB radio signal daily broadcast ensures that the atomic clock will always
display the most accurate date and time. This clock never needs setting.
The weather station is equipped with many functions providing weather
information to you. The receiver unit has a clear, easy-to-read display that
shows the weather forecast, indoor temperature, time, month, date, as
well as the outdoor temperature measured and transmitted from the outdoor
sensor.
The 433 MHz technology means no wire installation is required and you can
place the sensor anywhere you like within 100 feet.
