Package Contents

The Geevon Atomic Digital Alarm Clock package includes:

• 1 x Geevon Atomic Digital Alarm Clock (Model 22116)

Note: 2 AA batteries are required for operation and are not included in the package.

Setup

1. Battery Installation

Locate the battery compartment on the back of the alarm clock. Insert 2 new AA batteries, ensuring correct polarity (+/-). Close the battery compartment cover securely.

2. Initial Atomic Clock Synchronization

Upon battery installation, the clock will automatically attempt to synchronize with the WWVB atomic time signal. This process may take several minutes. During synchronization, all buttons are temporarily unavailable to prevent interference. Once synchronized, the time will be set accurately.
