Automatic clock setting
When you plug in your clock radio or instal the backup battery for the first time it will receive and synchronise to the official UK standard time
signal transmitter (MSF) located at Rugby in the U.K. Your clock radio will automatically switch from summer to winter time and vice versa by
following the radio time signal.
At certain times of the year the MSF transmitter closes down for maintenance. During this time the clock will not automatically
set. Recorded information on transmitter status can be obtained on 020 8943 6493.
At all other times if the transmitter closes down the clock will continue to run on its own internal time memory.
Power on
1. Place the unit on a flat surface. Plug the mains lead into a wall
socket and switch on. The clock face will illuminate.
2. The built in microprocessor will automatically activate the Radio
Controlled clock to set the hour and minute hands to the 04:00,
08:00 or 12:00 o'clock reception mode position and initiate a search
for the time signal.
3. When the time setting process has been completed (2-4 minutes),
the hour and minute hands will move to show the exact time.
4. If the time does not set it may be necessary to rotate
your clock radio to a position giving better reception of
the MSF signal.
5. It is recommended that your clock radio is placed as far away as
possible from any sources of interference such as computers or
televisions, etc.
6. To repeat the automatic time set process, unplug the mains lead
from the wall socket, remove the backup battery if fitted, wait 2
minutes, then repeat the above power on procedure.
In the event of a mains power failure with no backup battery
fitted, your clock radio will automatically synchronise
with the MSF time signal and reset the clock when the
mains power is restored.
