Installing the LCD
radio-controlled clock
Note: You will need a drill, suitable assembly
material and a screwdriver for installation.
CAUTION! DANGER TO LIFE AND RISK
OF INJURY; RISK OF DAMAGE TO PROP-
ERTY! Please read the operating and safety instruc-
tions for your drill carefully.
WARNING!
DANGER TO LIFE! Please
ensure that you do not drill into any electrical wiring,
gas or water pipes in the wall. If necessary, carry out
checks with a wire, pipe and stud detector before
you drill into a wall.
Find a suitable place to install the radio-controlled
clock.
Mark the drill hole on the wall.
CAUTION! DANGER OF INJURY! Refer to
the operating instructions for your electric drill.
Drill the hole with a drill.
Insert a suitable dowel into the drill hole.
Use a screwdriver to insert a suitable screw.
Hang the radio-controlled clock on the screw
using the mount .

play if the batteries are too weak. Make sure you
replace the batteries at the earliest opportunity.
The radio-controlled LCD wall clock starts to receive
the radio time signal as soon as the batteries are
inserted.
Note: Do not alter the position of the radio-controlled
clock during reception of the signal. This may disrupt
reception.
Radio time signal (DCF):
The DCF signal (time signal transmission) consists
of time pulses broadcast from one of the most accu-
rate clocks in the world. It is situated near Frankfurt /
Main, Germany.
Your radio-controlled clock receives these signals
under ideal conditions up to a distance of approx.
8 GB
appears in the LC dis-
1,500 km around Frankfurt / Main. Reception of the
radio signal generally takes approx. 3–10 minutes.
If it does not work properly, restart the radio-
controlled clock. To do this, keep the WAVE
button pressed for approx. 3 seconds.

Reception can be considerably impaired by obstacles
(e.g. concrete walls) or sources of interference (e.g.
other electrical devices). If necessary, change the
location of the radio clock (e.g. by putting it near a
window) if you have problems with reception.

Reception of DCF radio signal

The radio-controlled clock automatically starts to
search for the DCF radio signal. The radio icon
on the LCD indicates that the clock is searching for the
radio signal.
Note: Reception of the radio signal may be seriously
disrupted in reinforced concrete buildings (see "Set-
ting up Devices").
It is also possible to start reception of the DCF radio
signal manually on the clock.
Press and keep pressed the WAVE button
for longer than 3 seconds. The LCD radio-con-
trolled wall clock attempts to receive the DCF
radio time signal. This process takes several
minutes and is indicated in the LC display by a
flashing radio symbol
Note: If the radio-controlled clock cannot pick up
the DCF radio signal on account of an error or the
distance from the transmitter, etc., it is also possible
to set the time manually. As soon as reception of
the DCF signal is successful, the manual settings
are overwritten.
