What do I do if my display is blank? Check the polarity on your batteries to make sure they are installed according to the diagram in the battery compartment. Also make sure that you are using a quality alkaline battery. We advise against reloading batteries.
Why is my time incorrect or not displaying at all? 1.
This projection clock receives a signal from Frankfurt (DCF-77) to set the clock and the calendar to atomic time. Sometimes, due to adverse weather or atmospheric conditions you will not be able to receive a signal immediately. The best way to get a signal is to put your clock in a window facing Frankfurt until you see the tower icon appear. If definitely you are not receiving the signal, wait one night during the night time there are less atmospheric disturbances. 2. If your time is off by an increment of 1 hour, 2 hours or more, change your TIME ZONE on zero to have time zone on the atomic time (which is CET meaning Central European Time = Brussels, Paris, Rome, Berlin, Madrid,...). Change time zone on “-1” for Great Britain and Portugal. Match any time zone when receiving DCF-77 signal. 3. For this weather station, the time runs from -9 hours up to +9 hours. .
How do I manually set the time and date ? In case the clock do not receive the DCF-77 signal, it is possible to manually set the time and date. Proceed as follows : 1. Remove the batteries from the clock and wait until the LCD screen is blank. 2. Insert the batteries back into the projection clock. While all LCD segments are lit up, press and hold the MODE/IN key : 0h will start flashing. 3. Press he MODE/MIN key to set the time zone +/- 12h when the time zone is correct press the SNOOZE 4. Press the AL/HR key to set the hour and the MODE/IN key to set the minutes. Once the time is correct, press the SNOOZE key (on the top of the clock) to proceed to calendar setting. 5. The year will now be flashing : use the MODE/IN key to set it. Once the year is correct, press the SNOOZE key to proceed to month and date settings. 6. Month and date will start flashing : set the month with the MODE/MIN key and the date with the AL/HR key. Once the date and month are correct, press the SNOOZE key to proceed to day setting. 7. The first two letters of the day will now be flashing : set the correct day by pressing the MODE/MIN key. Once this is done, exit the manual setting mode by pressing the SNOOZE key.

What means when “OFL” instead of data is displayed? “OFL” is displayed when in- or outdoor temperature data are “out of range”. NOTA: -
indoor temperature measurement range : from 0°C to 49.9 °C
Correct data transmission is usually restored during the next data collection. If that is not the case, you should restart your station (see above).
