Congratulations on purchasing the Jumbo RF Wall Clock with
Indoor-Outdoor Thermometer (JMR828A).
The JMR828A is a multifunctional radio frequency (RF) controlled
clock. It is designed to automatically synchronize its current
time and date when brought within range of the radio signal
generated from the U.S Atomic clock.
Also, this unit displays outdoor and indoor temperature.
Included in this package is a remote thermo-sensor. Place the
thermo-sensor in a sheltered outdoor location within a 100 feet
(30 meters) radius of the main unit and it will transmit outdoor
temperature readings to the JMR828A.

Note: The effective range may be limited by building
materials and the position of either the main unit or the
remote thermo-sensor unit. Try various set-up
arrangements for best result.
Setting up the thermo-sensor unit:
1. Position the remote sensor within the signal transmission
range of the main display unit. The maximum transmission
range is 100 feet (30 metres).
2. Remove the screws of the battery door on the remote thermosensor unit.
3. Select display of temperature in either °C or °F using the
°C/°F slide switch.

BATTERY INSTALLATION AND REMOTE
THERMO-SENSOR SETUP
Follow this step-by-step procedure for installing batteries and
setting up the remote-sensor unit. Successful setup should ensure
that temperature signals are properly received.
5. Replace the battery compartment door and secure its screws.
Note: Though the sensor is splash proof and is meant for
use outside, it should be placed away from direct sunlight,
rain, or snow.
Once the batteries have been inserted into the remote thermosensor unit, batteries can now be inserted into the main unit.
BATTERY INSTALLATION : MAIN UNIT
This unit requires two (2) UM-3 or “AA” size batteries for operation.
How to insert batteries into the main unit:
1. Press the door tab and click-open the door.
2. Insert the batteries strictly according to the polarities shown
therein.

3. Replace the door so that it clicks into place.
Note: If not disposed of properly, batteries can be
harmful. Protect the environment by taking
exhausted batteries to authorized disposal stations.
Note: [
] Low-battery indicator
Replace the batteries when the Low-battery indicator lights up.
ABOUT RADIO RECEPTION
The JMR828A is a radio frequency (RF) controlled clock. When
located within radio signal range from the U.S Atomic Clock , the
clock time will automatically synchronize with time-signal
transmission. The benefit of a RF controlled clock is that highlyaccurate time is maintained and manual adjustments to the time
and date are not required.
When the batteries are first installed, the JMR828A will
automatically search for a radio signal.
When in search mode, the antenna icon [ ] will blink. This
process takes between two (2) and (10) minutes. After initial
search and synchronization with the Atomic clock, short periodic
reception-signal scans will commence several times a day.
The antenna icon indicates the quality of reception.
day-of-the-week display
“second” display
The day-of-the-week is displayed as an abbreviation in three
languages.
To deactivate the auto-reception of the radio signal, press and
hold [ZONE] for 2 seconds and the antenna icon will disappear.
To enable this auto-reception again, press and hold [
] for 2
seconds. The antenna icon will re-appear.
Interference
Reception can be affected by a number of factors. For best reception,
place the device away from metal objects and electrical appliances.
Note: Interference from sources such as TV sets can affect
the signal. If, after batteries have been inserted for ten
minutes,the radio signal is not received, then set the time
manually (see section: How To Set The Calendar Clock
Manually).
SECONDS AND DAY-OF-THE-WEEK
DISPLAY
The “second” and the day-of-the-week share the same section of
the display.
To change the “seconds” display to the day-of-the-week display:
1. When the “seconds” are displayed, press [CLOCK] once.
To change the day-of-the-week display to the “seconds” display:
1. When the day-of-the-week is displayed, press [CLOCK] once.
HOW TO SET THE CALENDAR CLOCK
MANUALLY
When the unit is outside of the radio signal generated from the
U.S Atomic Clock, the unit may require manual setting.
Note: The RF controlled mechanism overrides manual
settings unless auto-reception of radio signal is being
deactivated. If manual settings are made, the clock will
periodically adjust the time to what is indicated by the
radio signal.
It is highly unlikely you should ever have the desire (or need ) to
manually set the clock time, year, month or date of the JMR828A
when it is within signal range of the Atomic clock.
However, in the event this becomes necessary please review the
following.

GB
To manually set the clock:
1. Press [CLOCK] and hold for two seconds. The hour will start
to flash.
2. Enter the correct hour using the [ ] button. Hold to rapidly
increase the value.
3. Press [CLOCK] to confirm and proceed to set the minute.
Again, use the [ ] button to select the correct minute.
4. Press [CLOCK] to proceed to set the year, month, day and
language for day - of - week.
5. When finished, press [CLOCK]. The time and date are now set.
6. To select the U.S. time - zone, press [ZONE] to toggle among
Pacific(P), Mountains (M), Central(C) or Eastern (E).
TEMPERATURE DISPLAY
This unit displays temperature in °C or °F
temperature display
The remote outdoor temperature display has a kinetic-wave display.
The kinetic-wave display shows the signal-receiving status by
the main unit. The are three possible forms.
The unit is in searching mode.
Temperature readings are
securely registered.
No signals
Note:
Reasons for not receiving a signal from the remote thermo
sensor may include:
1. The batteries of the remote sensor, the main unit, or both
may be low. Low-battery icons should indicate that battery
power is low and the batteries require changing.
• When the temperature falls below freezing point, the
batteries will freeze. Frozen batteries will have a
lower voltage and result in a lower transmission
radius.
2. The transmission range is too far.
• Shorten the distance.
3. The transmission path is cluttered with obstacles and
interference.
• Shorten the distance or reposition the remote sensor
or the main unit.
TEMPERATURE TREND INDICATORS
The temperature-trend indicator show the trends of the collected
remote temperature readings for the past half hour. Arrows indicate
a rising, steady or falling trend.

Note : If the reading goes above or below the measuring
range of the remote unit (stated in specification), the

NOTE: JMR828A can also scan for max 3 different remote
temperature channels. To do so, simply press the CHANNEL
button once to switch to the different channel.
SENSOR TRANSMISSION STATUS
If blanks "----" appear on the remote temperature display of the
main, then the unit is not receiving a signal from the remote
thermo sensor. The user may be able to receive a signal by doing
a signal search.
Remote Sensor Signal Search:
Press [THERMO] and [CHANNEL] together for 2 seconds. The
unit will search for a remote thermo-sensor signal.
If the unit still cannot receive a signal, check the batteries to
ensure they are properly installed and have ample power. Try
repositioning the units as they might be having a temperature
transmission block due to signal interference.
HOW TO RESET THE UNIT
Press [RESET] to return all settings to the factory values.
The button is used when the unit is not operating in a favorable
way, such as in the rare case of a malfunction.

MAINTENANCE
When handled properly, this unit is engineered to give you years
of satisfactory service.
Here are several product-care suggestions:
1. Do not immerse the unit in water. If the unit comes in contact
with a liquid, dry it immediately with a soft lint-free cloth.
2. Do not clean the unit with abrasive or corrosive materials.
Abrasive cleaning agents may scratch the plastic parts and
corrode the electronic circuit.
3. Do not subject the unit to excessive force, shock, dust,
temperature, or humidity. Such treatment may result in
malfunction, a shorter electronic life span, damaged batteries,
or distorted parts.
4. Do not tamper with the unit’s internal components. Doing so
will terminate the unit’s warranty and may cause damage. The
unit contains no user-serviceable parts.
5. Only use new batteries as specified in this instruction manual.
Do not mix new and old batteries as the old batteries may leak.
6. Read this instruction manual thoroughly before operating
the unit.
