daylight saving time, DST will appear on the display to the left of the radio
control symbol 10 .

Time zone adjustment

If you are in a country, in which the clock displays the wrong time even though it can
receive the DCF77 time signal, please use the time zone adjustment to use your weather
station in a time zone other than the standard time zone (UTC+1 = Central European
Time). Set the difference in hours (- 01 for example) to the desired time zone.
Press and hold 1x long and 2x briefly the °C/°F-SET-button 18 in normal time display
mode. The time zone will blink and can be set with the MEM- -button 17 or the CH-
-button 16. Press the °C/°F-SET-button 18 to confirm your setting. The 12/24 hour time
format will blink. Press the button again and the radio-controlled weather station will
return to the normal setting. The radio-controlled weather station will show the changed
time (for example: 1 hour less).

Reception problems

The DCF77 radio signal is transmitted from a location near Frankfurt am Main and can
be received within a radius of approximately 1500 km around Frankfurt am Main.
However, there are some obstacles and sources of interference, which may substantially
hinder reception. If your weather station does not correctly receive the DCF77 radio
signal, please hang or place the weather station in a different location at your site.
Please note that devices such as computers, telephones, radios and televisions may
cause electromagnetic radiation which can interfere with the DCF77 signal reception.
Other possible detriments to reception are: strong building insulation (metal building
materials), nearby mountains or atmospheric interference. It may also be necessary to
replace the batteries.

Turning radio control signal reception on or off

Radio control reception can be turned off temporarily by pressing and holding
the MEM- -button 17 2 x for 3 seconds.
The radio control symbol 10 will disappear from the display. The radio-controlled
weather station will no longer receive the radio control signal but will restart reception
every hour between 01:00 and 05:00 o'clock. Alternatively press and hold the MEM-
-button 17 to restart DCF77 radio control signal reception.
To permanently turn off radio control signal reception, press and hold both the MEM- -
button 17 and the CH- -button 16 together for 3 seconds. The radio control symbol 10
will disappear. The radio-controlled weather station will now no longer receive the
DCF77 radio control signal.
Press and hold the MEM- -button 17 and the CH- -button 16 together for 3 seconds
and the radio wave symbol 10 will disappear. The radio-controlled weather station
can now receive the DCF77 signal again.
The radio-controlled weather station will attempt to receive the radio control signal
hourly between 01:00 and 05:00 o'clock and correct the time automatically if reception
is successful. If reception is successful, the radio control symbol 10 will appear on the
display permanently.
