CLOCK FUNCTIONS

Your product is designed to synchronize its calendar clock
automatically once it is brought within range of the radio signal from
the U.S. Atomic Clock. When the main unit is new and just out of the
box, synchronization with the U.S. Atomic Clock can take up to 72
hours. When the unit is receiving the signal, the Radio Reception
symbol with start to blink. Generally, complete reception takes around
2 to 10 minutes, depending on the strength of the radio signal. The
clock automatically searches for radio signal at 1AM, 2AM, 3AM,
9AM, 3PM and 7PM daily.
