WALL MOUNTING

1)Using a straight edge, horizontally space at about 2“ (50 mm) three screw positions on a wall.

2)Install three mounting screws (not included) into a wall —leaving

approximately 0.19“ (5mm) extended from the wall.

3)Place the atomic clock onto the screws, using the hanging holes on the

backside. Gently pull the atomic clock down to lock the screws into place.

Note:

Always ensure that the atomic clock locks onto the screws before releasing.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Problem:

The LCD is faint.

Solution:

1)

Replace the batteries.

Problem:

No reception of WWVB signal

Solution:

1)

It may help reception to face the front of the atomic clock in the general

 

 

direction of Ft. Collins, Colorado.

 

2)

Wait overnight for signal.

 

3)

Be sure the atomic clock is at least 6 feet (2 meters) from any electrical

 

 

devices, i.e. TV sets, computers, or other radio controlled clocks.

 

4)

Remove batteries for five minutes, reinsert and leave the unit alone

 

 

overnight without pressing any keys.

Problem:

Hour is incorrect (minute and date are correct).

Solution:

1)

Be sure the correct time zone and daylight saving time are selected.

Problem:

"OFL“ appears in the indoor temperature section of the LCD

Solution:

1)

Move the atomic clock to an area with warmer or cooler surrounding

 

 

temperature. Current surrounding temperatures are outside measuring

 

 

range.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE:

Avoid placing the unit in areas prone to vibration and shock as these may cause damage.

Avoid areas where the unit can be exposed to sudden changes in temperature, i.e. direct sunlight, extreme cold and wet/moist conditions as these will lead to rapid changes which reduces the accuracy of readings.
