- Disconnect the product from the power supply using the On/ Off switch – if this is not available, unplug the power cord from the socket.
- If using a multi-socket power strip, make sure that the total power consumption of all connected devices does not exceed the power strip's maximum throughput rating.
- If you will not be using the product for a prolonged period, disconnect it from mains power.
- First connect the power supply unit to the socket (10) of the alarm clock and then to an approved mains socket.
Note

- Alarm mode 2 (ALM2)
- Secondary time
Automatic date/time setting using the DCF signal
- Once you have inserted the batteries, the display is switched on, an acoustic signal sounds and the alarm clock automatically starts searching for a DCF radio signal. During the search, the radio icon will flash.
- When the wireless signal is received, the date and time are automatically set.
- The search for the DCF signal takes about 7 minutes.
Note – Time settings
- If, during initial setup of the device, no DCF radio signal is received within the first few minutes, the search is aborted. The radio icon (6) will go out.
- If there are reception problems, we recommend leaving the clock to sit overnight, since interference is generally less at night.
- In the meantime, you can start a manual search for the DCF radio signal at another location or you can manually set the time and date.
- The clock automatically continues to search for the DCF signal every hour. If the signal is received successfully, the manually set time and date are overwritten.
Display (6) | Searching for the DCF signal |
![]() Display flashing | Active |
![]() Display steady (not flashing) | Successful – signal is being received |
![]() Display steady (not flashing) | Success – weak signal reception |
Not display | Inactive – no signal reception |
- Press and hold the °C/°F/WAVE button (5) for approx. 3 seconds to start a manual search for the DCF radio signal.
Note – Manual search
- The manual search is automatically aborted after 3-5 minutes.
- Using the wave°C/°F/WAVE (5) frequently will drain the battery. We recommend only using this function to seek out an optimal location for the device.
