Troubleshooting:
Your clock is a very delicate and precise instrument. Although uncommon, sometimes
hard knocks or vibrations can cause the hands to move irregularly, and therefore display
the incorrect time, although the internal clock is keeping accurate time. You may notice
this when the clock is able to update signal and announce the right time but the hands are
not synchronized with the talking time. Then the clock needs to be reset. Please go to
“Reset the Clock” for details.
1. Clock Not Receiving Time Signal
Reason for not being able to receive the Time Signal include:
-Being outside of the signal reception area
-Being in a build up area
-Metal or concrete objects blocking the radio signal
-Interference by a computer monitor, TV, or other electrical equipment
If your clock is unable to make contact with the radio signal, try moving the clock to
a different area to try and receive the signal again. If you are still unable to pick up
the signal you clock will continue to function in the same way as a standard clock.
The time will be updated the next time your clock receives the time signal.
2. Clock’s second hand jumps every 2 seconds (rather than running second by
second)
Battery is Low. Go to “Low Battery Detection” for details.
3. No talking function after battery replacement
You need to Press the Reset button after battery replacement or the talking function
will not work properly.
4. No talking function but the hands are showing correct time.
The connection of the battery terminals in the battery compartment may be
interrupted if the clock receives a hard knock during daily usage. You need to make
sure the batteries are correctly installed and reset the clock. Go to “Reset the Clock”
for details.
5. Clock stops and no talking functions
When battery is low, the clock hands will stop and the talking function will terminate.
Replace the batteries at this time. Please go to “Battery Replacement” for details.
6. Hour, Minute or Second hand(s) is not showing correct time
You need to reset the clock. Go to “Reset the Clock” for details.
7. Hands running non-stop after battery replacement
Press the Reset button if the hands start running non-stop after battery replacement.
8. The clock does not run at all after battery replacement
Press the Reset button if the hands do not operate after battery replacement.
