The clock can be forced to attempt to synchronize at any time. With the bottom
left switch in the LOCK position, press in the second button from the left,
in the top row. Synchronization may not be immediate, so please allow some
time for the clock to "synch".
D) Manual Setting
If you are out of the receiving range of the radio control signal, or if you prefer,
the clock can be manually set. Once it is manually set the clock will attempt to
synchronize for few days. If all attempts fail, the receiver circuit is put into the
sleep mode to conserve power. The clock then functions as a quartz clock until
Forced Synchronization is attempted. (See C above).

For the best visual quality on the display screen, avoid locations where there is a
strong glare or reflection on the display lens.
