Built-In Stand

Thank you for purchasing the RadioShack Jumbo-Digit Atomic Wall Clock with Wireless In/Out Thermometer. Your clock is a multifunctional radio frequency (RF) controlled clock designed to automatically synchronize the current time and date when brought within range of the radio signal from the U.S. Atomic clock. After you install the batteries, the clock automatically searches for a radio signal.

FCC Rules

. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.

However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this eq uipment does cause harmf ul interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

• Consult your local RadioShack store or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

• If you cannot eliminate the interference, the FCC requires that you stop using your clock.

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by RadioShack may cause interference and void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
