RADIO CONTROLLED
ATOMIC WALL CLOCK
Instruction Manual
Thank you for your purchase. The utmost care has gone into the design and manufacture of your clock. Please read these
instructions carefully and store them in a safe place for future reference.
Buttons and Switches:
A. SET Button: Press to Manually Set the Time. See Point 8; Please ensure sufficient time has passed
overnight to receive atomic signal prior to manual set
B. WAVE Button: See Point 7
C. RESET Button: Press to reset if clock needs resetting
D. TIME ZONE Switch: See Point 2a
E. DST ON/OFF Switch: See Point 2b
1. Quick Start Notes:
a. Start this clock at night and let the clock receive the atomic signal automatically after midnight.
b. Always place the unit away from interfering source such as TV set, computer, metal objects and
electrical appliances.
c. Areas with access to windows are recommended for better reception.
2. Set Time Zone & Daylight Savings Time (DST):
a. On the back control panel: Set the clock to your time zone by moving the indicator arrow to
appropriate zone: P (Pacific Time), M (Mountain Time), C (Central Time), E (Eastern Time)
b. Enable the Daylight Savings Time Auto Adjust feature by moving the DST switch to “ON”. If
you are in a time zone that does not follow DST, make sure you set the DST mode to “OFF”.
The Daylight Savings Time feature is disabled when the switch is set to “OFF”.
3. Initial Set-Up: Insert one AA alkaline battery into the battery holder. This will activate the atomic radio
reception mode and the second, minute and hour hands will automatically reset to the 12:00 position.
Once the hands are in the 12:00 position, the movement will start searching for the radio signal. The
search procedure takes approximately 3 to 10 minutes after all hands have set to the 12:00 position. If a
signal is found within the first 3 to 10 minutes, the clock will set to the correct time. If the clock does not
receive a radio signal soon after activated, the clock will start running from the 12:00 position and will
continue to run. In this case, do not attempt to reset the hands manually even though the time displayed
on the clock is incorrect. The clock is synchronizing to the WWVB signal and once the radio signal is
decoded, the hands will automatically adjust to the correct time.
