Install a mounting screw (not included) into a wall—leaving approximately 3/16 of an inch (5mm) extended from the wall. Place the radio-controlled solar clock onto the screw, using the hanging hole on the backside. Gently pull the radio- controlled clock down to lock the screw into place.

SNOOZE SETTING

The snooze can only be activated during alarm time for a snooze duration of 10 minutes by pressing the SNZ key on the back of the clock.

POSITIONING THE RADIO-CONTROLLED SOLAR CLOCK:

Before permanently mounting, ensure that the radio-controlled solar clock is able to receive WWVB signals from the desired location. Also, extreme and sudden changes in temperature will decrease the accuracy of the solar clock, and changes in elevation will result with inaccurate temperatures readings for the next 12 to 24 hours. These changes will require a 12 to 24 hour wait before obtaining reliable data.

There are two possible ways to mount the solar clock:

use of the foldable table stands, or

wall mounting
