    If the reception was not successful, the reception symbol disappears after several minutes and the time in the display continues to run normally. With successful reception, the radio-controlled alarm clock sets itself to the time of the time signal transmitter. If you have already carried out manual time and date settings, these are automatically adjusted.
  • Page 21 General The base station and radio sensor exchange data through a radio frequency. Therefore, the location is crucial to the range of the radio connection. Please note: The maximum allowable distance between the base station and the sensor is 100 metres. However, this range is only possible with "direct visible contact".
  • Page 22 Regarding the radio reception between the time signal transmitter and the base station, please note the following points: Preferably set up the base station near a window. Keep a distance to televisions, PCs and monitors. Base stations of cordless telephones should also not be in the direct vicinity of the weather station.
  • Page 23 Base station DANGER When installing on a wall, please ensure that no electric cables, gas and water pipes are not buried beneath the wall surface before drilling any holes.
  • Page 24 The base station can be stood up or suspended. The base station has a fold-down stand (A) and two suspension loops (A) for this purpose. The stand has three locking positions. Preferably set up or suspend the base station near a window. This is usually the best recep- tion site.
  • Page 25 Radio sensor Stand or suspend the radio sensor at a location where it is protected from direct weather influences (rain, sun, wind, etc.). Suitable locations are e.g. below a canopy or in a carport.
