Note:  Hold down the ▲ button (13) or thebutton (12) to select the values faster.

  • Press the MODE button (11) repeatedly to switch between the following displays:
  • Temperature
  • Alarm mode 1 (ALM1)
  • Alarm mode 2 (ALM2)
  • Dual 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 (6) will flash. This process can take 3 to 5 minutes.
  • When the wireless signal is received, the date and time are automatically set.
  • Press and hold the °C/°F/WAVE button (10) for approx. 3 seconds to start a manual search for the DCF radio signal.

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.

Note – Manual search

  • The manual search is automatically aborted after 3-5 minutes.
  • Using the wave °C/°F/WAVE (10) frequently will drain the battery. We recommend only using this function to seek out an optimal location for the device.
