Thank you for purchasing a RadioShack 1.8 Inch Big Digit Atomic Clock. Your clock tells Atomic time, so it sets itself automatically when it receives the WWVB signal transmitted by NIST in
Fort Collins, Colorado. It has a bold, easy to read display with a Hi-Lo dimmer that allows you to adjust the brightness for greater readability. With four time zones selection, you can set the clock to the correct time by just sliding a switch!
Four Time Zones — slide the time zone switch to select
Pacific Standard
Times (PST),
Mountain Standard
Time (MST), Central
Standard Time (CST), or Eastern Standard
Time (EST).
Daylight
Saving Time
(DST) — adjusts to

Saving Time automatically when it receives the
WWVB signal.
This symbol is intended to alert you to the presence of uninsulated dangerous voltage within the product’s enclosure that might be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock. Do not open the product’s case.
Daily Dual Alarm — two separate alarms with different sounds.
!
This symbol is intended to inform you that important operating and maintenance instructions are included in the literature accompanying this product.

You can install a backup battery so you do not lose your clock settings if there is a power failure. The display turns off during a power failure, but, for 24 hours, the clock continues to run and the alarms sound at the preset alarm times.
Your clock requires one 9V battery (not supplied) for backup power. For the best performance and longest life, we recommend
RadioShack alkaline batteries. ± .

Place your clock in a location with strong signal strength. It is recommended to locate the clock near a window facing the direction of Fort Collins, Colorado. If the clock has poor signal reception or unstable signal marks, move the clock to another location.
While the clock is receiving, press TIME SET once to go to the Time display mode. The clock continues receiving the atomic time.
Press HOUR/WAVE to enter Signal Strength display.

The clock starts to search for the WWVB signal and searches for 20 minutes after you connect it to power.
In optimal conditions, the correct time will be displayed within 10 minutes
The atomic reception tower icon will keep blinking when the clock is receiving the signal.
The static atomic reception tower indicator indicates successful reception.
The signal is at its maximum strength from
12:00 am to 3:00 am and with minimal radio interference. In most cases, the clock will not receive and update its time until this time.

The clock detects the battery level —
• at 12:00 pm daily
• when AC power recovers from failure,
• when the clock is connected to power
When the clock detects the battery level, a load of around 5mA is drawn directly from the battery. If the clock detects a low battery voltage, the LOW BAT. indicator appears solid.
