TO INSTALL AND REPLACE BATTERIES IN THE MOONPHASE WALL CLOCK

The Moonphase wall clock uses 2 x AA, IEC LR6, 1.5V batteries. To install and replace the batteries, please follow the steps below:

1. Insert finger or other solid object in the space at the bottom center of the battery compartment and lift up to remove the cover.

2. Insert batteries observing the correct polarity (see marking inside battery compartment).

3. Replace compartment cover.

DO NOT SET THE CLOCK.

TO INSTALL AND REPLACE BATTERIES IN THE TEMPERATURE TRANSMITTER

The transmitter uses 2 x AA, IEC LR6, 1.5V batteries. To install and replace the batteries, please follow the steps below:

1. Remove the cover.

2. Insert the batteries, observing the correct polarity (see battery compartment marking).

3. Replace the battery cover on the unit.

Alkaline batteries are recommended for use in both units. Avoid using rechargable batteries.

SETTING UP:

1. Insert the 2 x AA, IEC LR6, 1.5V batteries into the transmitter (See “To install and replace batteries in the Temperature Transmitter” above).

2. Within 3 minutes, insert 2 x AA, IEC LR6, 1.5V batteries into the Moonphase wall clock as indicated above (see "To install and replace batteries in the Moonphase wall clock“ above).

3. Once the batteries are in place, all segments of the LCD will light up briefly. Then the indoor and outdoor temperature - -.-°C, the time as 0:00, the date as 1/1, and weekday will be displayed.

4. Do not press any buttons for 10 minutes

5. The Moonphase wall clock will start receiving data from the transmitter. The remote temperature will then be displayed on the Moonphase wall clock. If the outdoor temperature is not displayed 90 seconds after inserting the batteries into the receiver, all batteries are needed to be removed and wait for at least 1 minute for reset from step 1.

6. The DCF time code reception will automatically start. This takes typically between 3 - 5 minutes in good conditions. This time period is an excellent opportunity to locate the transmitter in suitable location outdoors. In order to ensure sufficient 868MHz transmission however, this should under good conditions be no more than 100 meters from where the Moonphase wall clock will be finally positioned (see notes on “Positioning” and “868MHz Reception”).

7. If after 10 minutes the DCF time has not been received, use the SET key to manually enter the set mode and change either the time or date in order to activate the DCF reception. When this is successful, the received time will override the manually set time. The date is also updated with the received time (Please refers to notes on “DCF Radio controlled

time” and “Manual time setting”).

Note:

In the event of changing batteries of the unit ensure that the batteries do not spring free from the contacts. Always wait at least 1 minute after removing the batteries before reinserting, otherwise start up and transmission problems may occur.
