BATTERIES

Explanation: Many problems are resolved with fresh batteries of the appropriate voltage.

Many items sent in under warranty work when tested with fresh batteries. Batteries

manufactured this year will have an expiration date 10 years (or more) in the future.

Battery technology has improved and batteries will maintain voltage longer in storage.

However, the environment the batteries reside in for the 10 years can deplete the power.

 We suggest a name-brand Alkaline battery .

 A minimum voltage of 1.48V is necessary for proper performance.

 Use a battery dated at least six years in advance of the current year. Batteries dated

earlier than six years from now may still work, but may be unstable in performance.

 Good name-brand batteries make less noise, which reduces the chance of RF (radio

frequency) interference from the battery compartment.

ATOMIC CLOCK FACTORY RESTART

Explanation: The factory restart returns the atomic clock - -the-to an “out of box” state and

often resolves an issue.

Factory Restart:

1. Remove the battery from the clock for 15 minutes.

2. Press the Q-Set button at least 20 times to clear all memory.

3. After 15 minutes, insert fresh Alkaline battery into the clock.

4. The hands will spin to 12:00, 4:00 or 8:00 and wait for the WWVB time signal.

SUPPORTED TIME ZONES

 This atomic clock offers four time zones: Pacific, Mountain, Central and Eastern.

 La Crosse Technology® does not make an analog clock with more than four time zones.

 The atomic clock works North America. in

 Outside of North America, the atomic clock will not receive a WWVB signal, but will keep

time like a quartz clock if manually set.

TIME IS INCORRECT

 Indicative of non-receipt of WWVB signal

 Electrical storms between you and Colorado can interfere with the WWVB signal

 Replace battery and perform restart procedure. Allow up to 5 days to receive a signal.

 Reposition the atomic clock with the front or back facing Colorado.

 Try a different location, ideally near a window. The clock should be at least six feet from

computers, TVs, air conditioners, other atomic clocks and other electrical appliances that

cause interference.

 Large buildings, metal roofed buildings and buildings or rooms full of electrical and/or

radio equipment make it difficult to receive the WWVB time signal.

 Locate the bronze colored pins in the upper left region of the movement on the back of

the clock. Short across the pins briefly with a screwdriver or similar metal object and

allow the hands to spin. The hands will stop all pointing at 12 when properly aligned.

Allow the clock to receive a signal and set itself. Then select the correct Time Zone for

your area.

CLOCK IS I NCOR RE CT B HOURS BUT MI NUTES AR E CO RR ECT Y

 This is a Time Zone issue. Hold your Time Zone button for 5 seconds. The clock should

correct itself.

 Check that DST is on. Press and release the small, unmarked gray button between the

ET and CT button one time.

DAYLI GHT SAVI NG TIME

 Dependent on your location, position of the clock in your home, and atmospheric

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

ON).

 Check for fresh . Without proper batteries, the antenna will have a harder batteries

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.

MANU ALLY S E T TI ME

1. Press and hold the Q-Set button on the backside of the movement until the second hand

starts running.

2. Release the button quickly (less than 3 seconds) and press it again to set actual time.

3. Three seconds after releasing the Q-Set Button your clock will start working as a Quartz

Clock.

4. In Quartz Mode, your clock will try to receive each even hour. If a signal is received, it

will override the manual set time.

AUTO CORRE CTIO N

 Between 3:00 and 4:05pm daily, the clock automatically checks its hands

position. If hands position is not equal to internal time, the hands are driven

(quick run) to the correct time again.

 You will see the hands spin completely around during this correction.

 This is normal behavior.

HOW LONG W ILL THE BAT TERY LAST?

 A good AA Alkaline battery will last over 12 months.

CAN I SHUT OFF THE W WVB S IG NAL ?

 No. If you manually set the time, when the clock receives a WWVB signal, that signal

will override the manual set.

IS THE RE A BOO STER ANT ENN A TO RE CEIV E TH E W WVB SIGN AL IN A

DIFF ICULT LOCAT ION?

 No, the clock cannot work with a booster antenna.

 Opening the clock or movement voids the warranty.
