I AM NOT RECEIVING THE ATOMIC TIME SIGNAL

• Your clock receives the Atomic Time Signal (WWVB) from Fort Collins, Colorado.

• Your clock will automatically search for the atomic time signal at UTC 7:00, 8:00, 9:00, 10:00,

and 11:00.

• Hold the - button to search manually, for the atomic time signal.

• Please be sure you have selected your time zone in the program menu.

• When the Atomic time signal is received, your clock will set to the time zone selected.

Default is Eastern Time.

• The WWVB time signal can be received up to 2,000 miles away from Boulder Colorado.

However, due to the nature of the Earth's Ionosphere, reception is very limited during

daylight hours. The Radio-controlled display will search for a signal every night when

reception is best.

For best signal reception, follow these steps:

1. Check for a Tower Icon showing on the display near the time. The tower icon indicates

successful reception of the WWVB signal in the past 24-hours.

2. Check that your clock is in the correct Time Zone. This clock offers seven time zones listed

in letter format (default is EST):

• Atlantic

• Eastern

• Central

• Mountain

• Pacific

• Alaskan

• Hawaiian

3. Check that ATOMIC is ON. This must be ON to receive a WWVB atomic time signal.

4. Check that the DST indicator is ON. If the indicator is OFF your clock will not change into or

out of Daylight Saving Time.

5. Batteries dated earlier than 6 years from now may still work, but may be unstable in

performance.

Note: Without proper batteries, the antenna will have a harder time picking up the signal.
