5. Operating Instructions
5.1 Automatic Time Setting (DCF-77)
Upon initial power-up, the clock will automatically attempt to synchronize with the DCF-77 radio signal. This process may take a few minutes. Ensure the clock is placed in an area with good reception, away from electronic interference.
5.2 Display Brightness Adjustment
The LED display has 3 brightness levels (high, medium, low). Use the dedicated button (often labeled 'DIMMER' or similar, or integrated into 'MODE' button presses) to cycle through the brightness settings.
5.3 Radio Operation
- Press the 'RADIO' or 'MODE' button to switch to FM radio mode.
- Use the 'TUNE' or 'PRESET' buttons to scan for stations or select a preset.
- To save a station as a preset, tune to the desired station, then press and hold the 'PRESET' button until the preset number flashes. Use the 'TUNE' buttons to select a preset number, then press 'PRESET' again to confirm.
5.4 Alarm Settings
The device features a dual alarm system with weekend function, snooze, and sleep timer.
- Setting Alarm 1/2: Press and hold the 'ALARM 1' or 'ALARM 2' button. The hour display will flash. Use the 'HOUR' and 'MINUTE' buttons (often combined with 'TUNE' or 'SET') to set the desired alarm time. Press the 'ALARM' button again to confirm.
- Activating/Deactivating Alarm: Press the 'ALARM 1' or 'ALARM 2' button briefly to toggle the alarm on or off. An indicator icon will appear on the display when active.
- Snooze Function: When the alarm sounds, press the 'SNOOZE' button (often a large button on top) to temporarily silence it. The alarm will sound again after a set interval (e.g., 9 minutes).
- Weekend Function: This function allows the alarm to be active only on weekdays. Refer to the specific button or menu option for 'WEEKEND' or '7/5 DAY' alarm settings.
- Sleep Function: Press the 'SLEEP' button to activate the sleep timer. The radio will play for a set duration (e.g., 15, 30, 60, 90 minutes) before automatically turning off. Press 'SLEEP' repeatedly to cycle through durations or turn off the sleep timer.
5.5 Time Projection
The integrated projector can display the time on a wall or ceiling.

5.6 Date and Weekday Display
Press the 'MODE' button repeatedly to cycle through time, date, and weekday displays.
5.7 Infrared Sensor
The infrared sensor allows for contactless control, such as reactivating the display after automatic shutdown or activating snooze/sleep functions with a hand wave.
