Introduction

Thank you for choosing the Techno Line WS8016 Wireless Wall Clock. This radio-controlled clock provides precise time, date, day of the week, indoor temperature, and indoor humidity readings.

Product Overview

Figure 1: Front view of the Techno Line WS8016 Wireless Wall Clock, displaying the time (10:30), indoor temperature (23.2°C), date (29/JAN/2019), day of the week (MONTAG), and indoor humidity (76% RH). Alarm indicators are also visible.

The WS8016 features a large, clear LCD display for easy readability. It automatically synchronizes with the DCF-77 radio signal for accurate timekeeping. In addition to time, it displays indoor temperature in Celsius or Fahrenheit, and indoor humidity as a percentage. The clock is designed for versatile placement, either mounted on a wall or placed on a table using its integrated stand.

Setup

1. Battery Installation

1. Locate the battery compartment on the back of the clock.
2. Open the battery compartment cover.
3. Insert two (2) AA Mignon LR0.6 batteries (not included) according to the polarity indicators (+ and -) inside the compartment.
4. Close the battery compartment cover securely.

2. Initial Setup and Time Synchronization

Upon battery insertion, the clock will automatically begin searching for the DCF-77 radio signal to synchronize the time. This process may take several minutes. Ensure the clock is placed in an area with good reception, away from electronic interference.

• The radio signal icon will flash during synchronization.
• Once synchronized, the icon will become solid, and the time, date, and day of the week will be set automatically.

3. Manual Time Setting (Optional)

If automatic synchronization is not desired or successful, you can set the time manually. Refer to the "Operating" section for detailed instructions on manual time and date adjustments.

4. Time Zone Setting

The clock allows for time zone adjustment. This is useful if you are outside the standard DCF-77 reception area or require an offset. Consult the "Operating" section for steps to adjust the time zone.
