4.2. Initial Time Setting (Radio Control)
After battery installation, the clock will automatically attempt to receive the DCF77 radio signal to set the correct time. This process may take several minutes, especially during the first setup. Ensure the clock is placed in an area with good signal reception, away from electronic interference.
- The clock hands will move to the 12 o'clock position and then begin searching for the radio signal.
- Once the signal is received, the clock will automatically adjust to the precise local time, including daylight saving time changes.
- If the signal is not received within 10-15 minutes, try moving the clock to a different location, preferably near a window, and away from other electronic devices.
