interference, it may take up to 5 nights for the change from Daylight Savings Time to
Standard Time and vice-versa to occur.
Press the DST indicator once. If the indicator is OFF the clock will not change. (Default is

. Without proper batteries, the antenna will have a harder
time picking up the signal.
Position the atomic clock in a window (with the front or back) facing Ft. Collins, Colorado
and leave for up to five nights. If you do not have a window facing this direction,
position the clock near an outside wall and point the unit in this general direction.
MANUALLY SET TIME
Note:
Allow up to five nights for the clock to receive the WWVB signal
before
manually

manual mode, there are two ways to move the minute hand forward.

Alternatively, press and release the SET button rapidly (more than once per second) to

4.
Use these features to move the minute hand forward until the correct time is set. The
clock will automatically leave manual mode after the SET button is not pressed for 6+
seconds.
HOW LONG WILL THE BATTERY LAST?
A good AA Alkaline battery will last over 12 months.
CAN I SHUT OFF THE WWVB SIGNAL?
