Operating Instructions
Automatic Time Setting
The Mebus Radio Wall Clock is equipped with a radio-controlled movement (DCF77) that automatically synchronizes with the atomic clock signal. This ensures accurate timekeeping and automatic adjustment for daylight saving time (summer time) and winter time.
Reading Temperature and Humidity
The clock features integrated analog displays for temperature (in °C) and humidity (in %). These are located on the lower part of the clock face. Read the current values directly from the respective dials.

Maintenance
Battery Replacement
When the clock hands stop moving or the time becomes inaccurate, it is time to replace the battery. Use a fresh AA 1.5V battery. Follow the battery installation steps outlined in the Setup section.
Cleaning
To clean the clock, gently wipe the surface with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or chemical sprays, as these may damage the clock's finish or internal components.
Troubleshooting
- Clock not working or hands not moving:
- Check if the battery is inserted correctly with the correct polarity.
- Replace the battery with a fresh AA 1.5V battery.
- Incorrect time or failure to synchronize:
- Ensure the clock is in an area with good radio signal reception. Avoid placing it near large metal objects, thick concrete walls, or other electronic devices that may interfere with the DCF77 signal.
- Allow up to 24 hours for the clock to fully synchronize, especially after initial setup or battery replacement.
- If the signal is consistently weak, try moving the clock to a different location.
- Temperature or humidity readings appear inaccurate:
- Ensure the clock is not exposed to direct sunlight, drafts, or extreme temperature changes, which can affect sensor accuracy.
- Allow the clock to acclimate to its environment for at least 30 minutes for stable readings.
