Battery Installation

The clock requires 3 x AAA batteries (not included) for operation.

1. Locate the battery compartment cover on the back of the clock.
2. Remove the cover by sliding it down or lifting it off.
3. Insert 3 new AAA batteries, ensuring the correct polarity (+ and -) as indicated inside the compartment.
4. Replace the battery compartment cover securely.

Upon battery insertion, the clock will power on and attempt to receive the radio control signal.

Initial Setup (Radio Control)

The Acctim Infinity 71952 is a radio-controlled clock, designed to automatically synchronize its time with the atomic clock signal (available in the UK and Ireland). This ensures accurate timekeeping and automatic adjustment for Daylight Saving Time (summer/winter time changes).

1. After installing batteries, place the clock near a window for optimal signal reception.
2. The clock will automatically begin searching for the radio signal. A flashing antenna icon on the display indicates it is searching.
3. Once the signal is received and synchronized, the antenna icon will become solid, and the correct time and date will be displayed. This process may take several minutes or up to 24 hours depending on location and signal strength.
4. To manually initiate a signal search, press the WAVE button.

Note: If the signal is weak or unavailable, the clock will operate as a standard quartz clock, and you may need to set the time manually.

Manual Time and Date Setting

If radio control is not desired or unavailable, you can set the time and date manually.

1. Press and hold the MODE button for approximately 3 seconds until the time display starts flashing.
2. Use the UP or DOWN buttons to adjust the flashing value (e.g., hour).
3. Press MODE again to confirm the setting and move to the next adjustable item (e.g., minute, year, month, day, 12/24-hour format, temperature unit).
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until all desired settings are adjusted.
5. Press MODE one last time or wait for 15 seconds for the clock to exit the setting mode automatically.

Alarm Settings

The clock features two independent alarms (AL1 and AL2).

Setting an Alarm:

1. Press the AL1 or AL2 button once to display the current alarm time.
2. Press and hold the AL1 or AL2 button for approximately 3 seconds until the alarm hour starts flashing.
3. Use the UP or DOWN buttons to adjust the alarm hour.
4. Press AL1 or AL2 again to move to the alarm minute setting.
5. Use the UP or DOWN buttons to adjust the alarm minute.
6. Press AL1 or AL2 one last time or wait for 15 seconds to exit the alarm setting mode.

Activating/Deactivating an Alarm:

• In normal time display mode, press the UP button repeatedly to cycle through alarm activation options: AL1 ON, AL2 ON, AL1 & AL2 ON, ALARMS OFF.
• A bell icon will appear on the display next to AL1 or AL2 when the respective alarm is active.

Snooze Function:

• When an alarm sounds, press any button (except AL1 or AL2) to activate the snooze function. The alarm will temporarily stop and sound again after a few minutes.
• To stop the alarm completely, press the AL1 or AL2 button corresponding to the sounding alarm.

Temperature Display

The clock displays the indoor temperature. During manual time setting, you can switch between Celsius (°C) and Fahrenheit (°F) using the UP or DOWN buttons when the temperature unit is flashing.
