Once the power supply has been established, there
will be a beep, the display will light up and go
through a brief check of the display elements. After-
wards, the appliance will automatically attempt to
receive the DCF signal. The reception icon

If the reception symbol is not flashing completely ( )
on the display, this means that the reception of the

synchronised. Try to find a set-up location in which
the reception symbol flashes completely ( ) on the
display.
If the DCF signal is being received correctly, the
current Central European Time (CET), the date and

The DCF signal
The DCF signal (time signal transmitter) consists of
time impulses which are transmitted by the most ac-
curate clock in the world – near Frankfurt am Main,
Germany. Under ideal conditions, the radio-controlled
projection alarm clock can receive the signals at up
to a distance of around 2000 km from Frankfurt am
Main. Reception of these DCF signals normally takes
between 3 and 5 minutes.
