About Intelli-Time®

Your new digital clock is equipped with Intelli-Time®technology which is pre-programmed with the correct time and date. Intelli-Time®instructs the clock to set itself once batteries are installed. The Intelli-Time®feature requires an internal memory battery to operate correctly. This battery is located in the Intelli-Time®memory battery compartment on the back of the clock and is pre-installed at the factory. We suggest replacement of the backup battery every 5 years. We recommend the replacement of backup battery in 1-2 years if the unit is not powered on for a long period of time. Do not replace the memory battery unless the clock is powered and the display is operating with the correct time.

3initial setup: Once the batteries are installed, the clock will power up. The clock will set itself to the correct time and date, defaulting to EST (eastern standard time).

Setting the time zone and daylight saving time:

1.Press, then release the “TIME ZONE” button on the back of the digital clock until it reaches the desired time zone position. You will see the time zone on the front of the clock in the upper right hand corner.

TIME ZONES

AST: Atlantic	MST: Mountain
EST: Eastern	PST: Pacific
CST: Central	AKST: Alaska
	HAST: Hawaii-Aleutian

2.You must also determine which Daylight Saving time setting to use on the back of the unit; new or old. Due to possible future changes in DST, this unit is equipped with a selection switch to choose between the traditional DST setting (OLD) or the new DST time change dates. You may slide the button to the left for (OLD), middle for (NEW) or right

for (OFF). “DAYLIGHT ST” will appear on the screen when Daylight Saving Time is observed.

The following chart illustrates the differences between the auto DST settings and when each setting automatically changes the time during the year.

	NEW DST	OLD DST	OFF
	2007 and beyond	2006	NO DST
2:00 am 2nd Sunday in March		2:00 am 1st Sunday in April	changes
2:00 am 1st Sunday n November		2:00am last Sunday in October

AUTO DST NOTE: portions of the country do not observe daylight savings time. If you live in an area that does not observe daylight saving time, please turn off DST function.

Changing the Backup Battery

Do not change the backup batteries unless the main 4 “AA” batteries are working. This will prevent the clock from being without power, and the internal calendar memory will function properly.

When changing the backup batteries, remove the battery compartment cover on the back of the unit. The backup battery compartment is inside. Open the backup battery cover. Replace the 1 “3V” CR2032 lithium battery with a fresh one and replace the cover.

Optional Custom Time Setting:

If you wish to set the clock slightly ahead or slightly behind, or if the Intelli-Time®internal memory battery is allowed to go dead, you may set the time and date by simply following the custom setup procedure below:

1.Press and hold the “SET” button for 5 seconds then release to enter the manual time set mode.

2.The hour will be flashing, adjust up or down using the “UP” or “DOWN” buttons. Note the AM or PM indicator on the display.

3.Press and release the “SET” button once to move on to the minute setting mode.

During shipping a static charge may build up. It will NOT damage the product but may prevent the display from showing. To restore the display you need to reset the unit. To do this, simply look at the back of the clock. You will see a small hole that is the RESET button. Use the end of a paper clip to press the button. This will restore the display.
