BATTERYINSTALLATION

Your Radio Controlled Clock is shipped with two AAA batteries. These batteries

should last for approximately one year depending on the amount of your use of the

HiGloTM backlight. Open the battery compartment, door and remove the two pro-

tective plastic strips from the batteries and slide the battery compartment door

back into place.

Radio Controlled Clock:

The RM806 will automatically synchronize current time and date with the signal

broadcast by the US Atomic Clock when the product is in reception range of the

signal.

When the unit is new and just out of the box, synchronization with the U.S. atomic

clock can take upto 72 hours. The unit will receive the most dependable and

interference free signal automatically between Midnight and 4 AM.

When the unit is receiving radio signal, the reception icon will start to blink. The

reception icon will show either strong, weak or no signal depending on the

strength of the radio signal. A complete reception generally takes about 2 to 5

minutes.

When the reception is completed the reception icon will stop blinking. The

reception icon will show [ ]for no Reception or [ ]for successfulreception. For

best signal reception, place the RM806 away from other equipment that emit RF or

microwave signals such as TV's, radios, PC's or microwave ovens. Other causes for

signal interference include electrical power transmission towers, steel reinfoced

concrete construction, and/or metal siding.

You may need to reposition the clock for maximum reception.

Radio Frequency appliances and radios, such as the Radio Controlled Alarm Clock,

perform best when placed near a window.

After receiving the initial signal, updates are accomplished with greater ease. Even

though there are areas that may have more difficulty in receiving a signal, the

RM806Alarm Clock containsvery accurate quartzmovementand willretainprecise

time even if a signal is missed on a rare occasion.
