INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on your purchase of the RF Projection Clock
(RM813P/RM813PU).

The RM813P/RM813PU is a multifunctional radio-controlled
clock. It can automatically synchronize its current time and date
when brought within an approximate 1500 km radius of the radio
signal DCF77 generated from Frankfurt, Germany (the UK version
from MSF Rugby, England).

To facilitate night time reading, the unit comes with a projector that
can cast large, clear clock-time figures onto flat surfaces in dark. It
also has a guiding light at the back of the unit.

ABOUT RADIO RECEPTION

RM813P/RM813PU is designed to synchronize its calendar clock
automatically once it is brought within range of the Frankfurt
DCF77 radio signal (MSF60 for UK version).

When RM813P/RM813PU is within range, the radio-controlled
mechanism will override all manual setting unless radio reception
is being deactivated.

When the unit is receiving signal, the Radio Reception symbol
[

] will start to blink. Generally, complete reception takes

around 2 to 10 minutes depending on the strength of the radio
signal.

To disable the reception of RF signal manually, press and hold the

] button for 2 seconds until the Radio Reception symbol

[

disappear.
To enable the reception again, press and hold the [

2 seconds. The Radio Reception symbol will blink and the unit
will search for RF signal automatically.
