Page 5 Important! Use only the adapter provided with the projection clock and make sure that your household voltage is appropriate to the working voltage of the transformer. Otherwise your projection clock may be damaged. BATTERIES POWERED WITH THE USE OF AC/DC ADAPTER If the Projection clock is first powered by batteries and the power adapter is subsequently used for extended period of time, the main power source of the Projection clock will switch to AC/DC power.

Page 9 DCF-77 RADIO CONTROLLED TIME The time base for the radio controlled time is a Cesium Atomic Clock operated by the Physikalisch Technische Bundesanstalt Braunschweig which has a time deviation of less than one second in one million years. The time is coded and transmitted from Mainflingen near Frankfurt via frequency signal DCF-77 (77.5 kHz) and has a transmitting range of approximately 1,500 km.
Page 10 • Recommended distance to any interfering sources like computer monitors or TV sets is a minimum of 1.5 - 2 meters. • Within ferro-concrete rooms (basements, superstructures), the received signal is naturally weakened. In extreme cases, please place the unit close to a window and/ or point its front or back towards the Frankfurt transmitter.
