automatic. In Daylight Saving Time “DST” is shown on the LCD. The quality of the
reception depends mainly on the geographic location. Normally there should be no
reception problems within a 1,500 km radius around Frankfurt.
Please take note of the following:
• The recommended distance to any interfering sources like computer monitors or TV
sets is at least 1.5 - 2 meters.
• Inside ferro-concrete rooms (basements, superstructures), the received signal is nat-

is possible in most cases. A single daily reception is adequate to keep the accuracy
deviation under 1 second.
