Important: When batteries are installed, the hands will move to
4 o’clock, 8 o’clock, or 12 o’clock position and search for the
Atomic Time signal.
• If successful, the hands will move to the time received for the
time-zone selected.
• If not successful, the hands will stay either at 4 o’clock 8
o’clock or 12 and the movement will continuously keep trying
to receive the Atomic Time.
Position Clock
• For the best reception, please place clock on a wall that faces
Ft. Collins, Colorado.
• Signal reception is at its peak when there is only one wall or
window between the clock and the outside.
• The antenna is best positioned for signal reception when the
front or back of the clock faces Colorado.
• Choose a location six feet or more from electronics such as
cordless phones, wireless gaming systems, televisions,
microwaves, routers, baby monitors, etc., which can prevent
signal reception.
• Large office buildings, schools, or hospitals may not receive
the WWVB time signal in every room.
• Metal roofs on buildings may interfere with reception.
Note: We recommend that you change the batteries every 24
months to maintain accuracy. Remove the battery when the clock
will not be in use for an extended period.
