Safety instructions for batteries

Mishandling the batteries can cause fires, ex­plosions, leakages, or other hazards! In order
to handle batteries safely, please observe the
following safety instructions:

► Do not throw the batteries into a fire and do not

subject them to high temperatures.

► Do not open, deform, or short-circuit batteries,

since this can lead to chemical leakage.

► Do not attempt to recharge the batteries. Do

not charge batteries unless they are explicitly
labeled as "rechargeable". There is a risk of

explosion!

► Never heat batteries in order to revive them.
► Check the condition of the batteries at regular

intervals. Leaking chemicals can cause perma-

nent damage to the device. Take particular care

when handling damaged or leaking batteries.

Risk of acid burns! Wear protective gloves.

■ 6 │ US - EN

SFPW 360 B1

► Chemicals that leak from a battery can cause

skin irritation. In the event of contact with the

skin, rinse with plenty of water. If the chemicals

come into contact with your eyes, rinse them thor-

oughly with water, and do not rub them. Consult a

physician immediately.

► Keep batteries out of the reach of children.

Children might put batteries into their mouth and

swallow them. If a battery has been swallowed,

seek medical assistance immediately. Also,

contact your local poison control center.

► Do not mix alkaline, carbon-zinc (standard),

Ni-Cd (rechargeable) or other types of batteries.

► Use only the correct type and size of battery

indicated.

► Always insert the batteries the right way (ob-

serve correct polarity); otherwise there is a risk

that they could explode.

► Clean the battery contacts and also those of the

device prior to battery installation.

► If you do not intend to use the device for a long

time, remove the batteries.

► Remove discharged batteries from equipment

promptly to avoid possible damage from

leakage.

► Always replace the whole set of batteries at one

time, taking care not to mix old and new ones.

► If the battery compartment does not close se-

curely, stop using the product and keep it away

from children.

Use

Requirements for the set-up location

► When choosing a location for the device, ensure

that the device is not subjected to direct sunlight,

vibration, dust, heat, cold and moisture.

► Do not set up the device in the vicinity of heat

sources, such as radiators.

► Protect sensitive surfaces before setting up the

product.

♦ Place the device on a flat and level surface.

Connecting to a power supply

This device can be operated with batteries or the
power adapter. For a permanent projection, permanent
display illumination and to use the USB port w,
the power adapterumust be connected.

Mains power operation:

♦ Ensure that the On/Off switch for permanent projec-

tion0 is in the "OFF" position.

♦ Plug the low voltage plug on the power adapter u

into the connector socket e on the device and con­nect the power adapter u to an easily accessible
power plug.

Once the power supply has been established, there
will be a beep, the display will light up and go
through a brief check of the display elements. After­wards, the device will automatically attempt to receive
the WWVB signal. The reception icon flashes on
the display. If the reception icon is not flashing com­pletely ( ) on the display, it means that the reception
of the WWVB signal is too weak and the time cannot
be synchronized. Try to find a set-up location where
the reception icon flashes completely ( ) on the
display.
If the WWVB signal is being received correctly, the
current Eastern standard time (EST) is shown on the
display. In addition, the reception icon is permanent­ly shown on the display.

The default time zone of the device is Eastern
Standard Time (EST). To change the time zone
please refer to Setting the date and time
manually section.
If the device is unable to synchronize with the
WWVB signal, you can also set the time manu­ally (see Setting the date and time manually
section) or you can attempt automatic reception
again.

The WWVB signal

WWVB is a National Institute of Standards and
Technology (NIST) time signal radio station near Fort
Collins, Colorado. The 70 kW ERP signal transmitted
from WWVB is a continuous 60 kHz carrier wave,
the frequency of which is derived from a set of atomic
clocks located at the transmitter site, yielding a fre­quency uncertainty of less than 1 part in one trillion.

Under ideal conditions, the device can receive the
signal up to a distance of approximately 2000 miles
from the transmitter. Reception of the WWVB signal
normally takes between 3 and 5 minutes. If reception
of the WWVB signal fails, the device will stop trying
to establish reception after approximately 7 minutes.
Reception can be considerably restricted by obstacles
(e.g. concrete walls) or interference sources (e.g. oth­er electronic devices). If reception problems persist,
you should change the location of the device (e.g. put
it by a window).

Displays in basic mode

Once the projection alarm clock has received the
WWVB signal, it is in basic mode. In basic mode, the
following information is shown on the display:

The current month appears next to the abbreviation
M and the date of the current day is displayed next
to the abbreviation D. The abbreviation for the current
weekday is shown on the right.
The language for this abbreviation is preset to English
but can be changed if required. The weekday display
can also be changed to display the calendar week
(see section Display calendar week). The time is
shown in 12-hour format by default. The abbreviation
PM (Latin: "post meridiem" = afternoon) is shown
in front of the time between 12 noon and 11.59 at
night. The abbreviation AM (Latin: "ante meridiem"
= morning) is shown in front of the time between 12
midnight and 11.59 in the morning. During the sum­mer period, DST
