4.2. Replacing the battery

• Open the battery compartment on the back of the
product.
• Remove and dispose of any used batteries. Insert
the new battery (AA). Ensure that the polarity of the
battery corresponds to the symbols in the battery
compartment.
• Close the battery compartment.
5. Operation
5.1. Automatic time setting using the DCF signal
• Once you have removed the contact breaker, an
acoustic signal sounds and the alarm clock
automatically starts searching for a DCF signal.
• After approx. 5-10 minutes (depending on how
quickly the radio signal was received), the
hands will set themselves to the correct time.

5.2. Setting the time manually

• If the correct time has not been set after approx. 10
minutes, this means the clock could not
find a DCF signal.
• Press and hold the M.SET button to manually set the
correct time. Release the M.SET button
once you have reached the required time.
• The clock automatically continues to search for the DCF
signal on a daily basis. If the signal
is received successfully, the manually set time is
overwritten.
• You may need to change the installation location and
avoid areas with possible sources of
interference (cordless and mobile telephones, wireless
speakers, etc.).
5.3. Starting manual reception
• Once the clock is running, press the REC button for 3
seconds. This will set the hands to the
12:00 position. Now the clock starts searching for
the DCF signal.
• If no signal has been received, the clock will show the
time previously saved.
5.4. Alarm
Setting the alarm
• Move the setting wheel on the back of the alarm clock
to set the required alarm time.
• To activate/deactivate the alarm, move the slide switch
to the ON or OFF position.
Stopping the alarm/snooze function
• If the alarm is activated, it is triggered at the set time
and an alarm signal sounds for two minutes
with increasing volume. The alarm automatically stops
after this time and is then triggered again
at the set alarm time.
• To stop the alarm early, move the slide switch to the
OFF position.
• Move the slide switch back to the ON position to
activate the alarm for the set alarm time.
Note – Snooze function
• While the alarm signal is sounding, press the
SNOOZE/LIGHT button to activate the snooze
function. The alarm signal will be stopped for 5
minutes, after which it will sound again.
• The snooze function can be activated nine
consecutive times.

5.5. Backlight

• If you press the SNOOZE/LIGHT button, the clock face
will light up for approx. 5 seconds.
6. RESET function:
• If, for whatever reason, the clock has not been set
correctly, you can reset it.
• Use a metal object (such as a needle) to short-circuit
the clock by means of the ‚RESET'
button on the rear side. All hands will move to the
12:00 position.
• After approx. 5-10 minutes (depending on how
quickly the signal was received), the hands
will automatically set themselves to the correct time.
