WHAT IS AN ATOMIC CLOCK?  
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with limits for a Class B digital device,  
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection  
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can  
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions,  
may cause harmful interference to radio communications.  
However, There is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If  
this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be  
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the  
interference by one or more of the following measures:  
An Atomic clock is a timepiece that maintains accuracy up to one second per million years using the most  
precise method of time synchronization, radio signals. In North America, the National Institute of Standards and  
Technologies (NIST) operates an Atomic clock in Fort Collins, Colorado, that transmits the time codes via the  
radio station WWVB.  
This quality TIMEX® clock includes a built-in receiver that picks up the Atomic radio signal from WWVB. To  
maintain the best possible reception, place the unit so that the backside faces in the general direction of  
Colorado.What's more, the IntelliTime® technology built into this clock makes for hassle-free automatic setting  
and resetting for daylight saving time.  
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.  
• Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.  
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the  
receiver is connected.  
PLEASE NOTE: Due to solar radiation in the atmosphere, the atomic clock signal is weaker during the day.  
Most synchronization will happen at night when there is less interference.  
INDIGLO® BACKLIGHT FEATURE  
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.  
®
NOTE: The manufacturer is not responsible for any radio or TV interference caused by unauthorized  
modifications to this equipment. Such modifications could void the user authority to operate the  
equipment.  
To turn on the optional Indiglo backlight feature,  
you can set the brightness level on high or low,  
whichever you prefer. By doing so, the clock will  
automatically light up in the dark. If not needed,  
you may choose the OFF setting. This will prevent  
the backlight from coming on and will conserve  
battery power.

In the event you wish to manually change the clock settings,  
please use the instructions on page 5.  
You may be experiencing interference from  
other wireless devices using the same radio  
frequency channel. Relocate the main unit

be within 100 feet (30m) of each other. Make  
sure units are placed at least 3 feet from other  
electronic devices or appliances that may

2) TURNING ATOMIC CLOCK FEATURE ON/OFF  
The wireless temperature sensor MUST BE PLACED OUTDOORS to capture and relay the  
outdoor temperature to the clock display unit. You may place your wireless temperature  
sensor outside up to 100 feet (30m) from the clock, as shown.  
NOTE: You do NOT need to turn off the atomic clock to set the time manually. Once the clock receives the signal, it will adjust the  
clock accordingly. However, you may choose to deactivate the atomic clock feature completely if you prefer to manually control  
the clock or if you live in a remote area that does not readily receive the atomic signal. As long as the atomic clock is ON, it will  
automatically adjust itself to the correct time, overriding your manual setting.  
The sensor is water resistant and is designed  
for outdoor use. However, to extend the life  
of the product, place it in an area protected  
from harsh weather elements. To ensure an  
accurate temperature reading, be sure the  
sensor is out of direct sunlight and away from  
any heat sources.  
Press the UP (s) ARROW to or DOWN (t) ARROW buttons to turn OFF  
Atomic signal. This will stop the clock from searching for the Atomic radio
