  2. Automatic Time Synchronization: Once the battery is inserted, the radio-controlled clock will automatically attempt to receive the time signal from Frankfurt, Germany (DCF-77). This process may take several minutes.
    • Ensure the clock is placed in an area with good radio signal reception, away from electronic devices that may cause interference.
    • The clock will automatically adjust for daylight saving time (summer and winter time).
  3. Manual Time Setting (if necessary): If the radio signal is not received (e.g., outside the 1500 km range from Frankfurt or due to interference), the clock will function as a normal quartz clock. There is no manual time zone adjustment feature.
  4. Mounting: Use the integrated wall mounting eyelet on the back of the clock to securely hang it on a wall.
