the time can be set manually. The DCF reception symbol disappears and the clock will then work
as a normal quartz clock (see: 7.1 Manual setting of the clock and calendar).
• There are 3 different reception states:
radio waves are flashing - reception is active
radio waves stop flashing - reception is successful
no symbol - no reception/time was set manual
6.5 Note on radio-controlled time
The time base for the radio-controlled time is a caesium atomic clock operated by the Physikalisch
Technische Bundesanstalt based in Braunschweig (Brunswick), Germany. It has a time deviation of
less than one second in one million years. The time is coded and transmitted from Mainflingen near
Frankfurt via the frequency signal DCF-77 (77.5 kHz) and has a transmitting range of approximately
1,500 km. Your radio clock receives the signal, converts it and always shows the exact time. The
adjustment to Daylight Saving Time (summer/winter time) is automatic. In Daylight Saving Time the
DST symbol is shown on the display. The reception quality depends mainly on geographic location.
Normally there should be no reception problems within a 1,500 km radius around Frankfurt.
