Automatic Time Synchronization

Whether the clock set itself automatically or whether you set the clock manually

the WWVB receiver will automatically switch ‘On’ for 10 minutes at 1 AM, 2 AM,

3 AM, 4 AM, and 5 AM every day and listen for the WWVB signal. During this time

between midnight and dawn the interference level is reduced and the WWVB

signal can be received clearly even in the fringe reception areas. The clock will

automatically resynchronize itself with the U.S. Atomic Clock time signal.

Note: If the radio is ‘On’ during this time period the WWVB receiver will not turn

‘On’.

Seconds Counter

If you need to momentarily view the seconds display depress the TIME/SECONDS

button. The month/date display changes to a seconds counter for as long as the

button is depressed.

SETTING THE WAKE UP TIMES

Your Atomic Clock Radio has two separate wake up alarms that can be set and

used independently. In addition the Alarm Mode selector allows you to set either or

both alarms for Week Days only, Week Ends only, or Every Day operation.

The procedure for setting the wake up times is the same for both alarms.

1.) Depress the ALM 1 or ALM 2 button. The display will change from the current

time to the Alarm 1 or Alarm 2 wake up time. The Day indicators will show

which mode is selected: Week Days only; Week Ends only; or Every Day.

2.) Continue pressing the ALM 1 or ALM 2 buttons and press the “+” or “–” buttons

to adjust the display to the desired wake up time. Be sure to set correctly for

AM or PM.

3.) To change the Alarm Mode setting depress either the ALM 1 or ALM 2 buttons

and press the ALARM MODE button repeatedly until the day indicators show

the desired mode: Monday through Friday only; Saturday and Sunday only; or

All 7 days.

After adjusting the wake up times you may recheck the settings at any time by

simply pressing the ALM 1 or ALM 2 button. The display will change from current

time to wake up time and the day indicators will show which alarm mode has been

selected.
