1.
The distance of the Projection clock should be at least 1.5-2.0 meters away from interfering sources such
as computer monitors or TV sets.
2.
Avoid placing the alarm clock onto or in the immediate proximity of metal, doors, windows frames or
structures.
3.
Within thick concrete rooms such as basements and tower blocks, the DCF-77 signal is naturally weaker.
In extreme cases, place the alarm clock closer to a window and/or point its front or rear towards the
general direction of the Frankfurt/Main transmitter (avoid positioning within close proximity of metal
frames or structures).
Note:
Users may be located in areas where atmospheric disturbances are the direct cause for not receiving the DCF-
77 frequency signal. During nighttime, atmospheric disturbances are usually less severe and reception is
possible in most cases. With a single daily reception, it is adequate for the alarm clock to keep time deviation to
below 0.5 seconds in a period of 24 hours.
When the clock is trying to receive the DCF signal, the reception icon will flash on the LCD. Once the signal is
"locked", the DCF-77 tower icon will stay fixed on LCD and the received time will automatically correct the
manually set time. As well as the time, the date will also be received by the Projection clock and will be
displayed accordingly in the calendar section of the LCD.
