2.When the temperature appears, press SET to toggle between Celsius and Fahrenheit degrees.

Notes:

Temperature and humidity readings are updated every 30 seconds.

It takes about four minutes for the clock to detect and display the temperature and humidity when it is powered on.

You cannot view the temperature or humidity while the clock is first receiving (detecting) an atomic clock signal.

resetting your clock

If your clock stops operating properly, press RESET on the back of the clock.

The FCC Wants You to Know

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.

However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

Consult your local RadioShack store or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

If you cannot eliminate the interference, the FCC requires that you stop using your clock.

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by RadioShack may cause interference and void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

Q - How far into Eastern Europe is the Continental Europe atomic clock signal detected?

A - The atomic clock at Mainflingen transmits within an area of about 1500km radius. The coverage area varies with weather conditions and time of day (coverage increases up to 2500km radius at night).

Q - Is signal detection affected by physical barriers?

A - Not usually. Long wave frequency is used for atomic clock signal transmission, which is less affected by physical barriers. Major barriers, such as steel reinforced concrete, may cause interference.

Q - How long do the batteries last?

A - Battery life depends on how often the backlight is used, since the backlight draws a lot of power. If the backlight is used once a day, the batteries will last approximately 9-12 months.

Q - If you are in an area covered by two atomic clock signals, such as Western Europe, which signal will be received?

A - The first signal the clock receives will be used to set the time. If this does not correspond to your current location, you can select your current city so the time is adjusted relative to GMT.
