Warranty card Figure One ABOUT RADIO-CONTROLLED TIME - WWVB The NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology-Time and Frequency Division) WWVB radio station is located in Ft. Collins, Colorado, and transmits the exact time and date signal continuously throughout the United States at 60 kHz. The signal can be received up to 2,000 miles away through the internal antenna in the alarm clock. Due to the nature of the Earth’s Ionosphere, reception is very limited during daylight hours. The alarm clock will search for a signal every night when reception is best. The WWVB radio station derives its signal from the NIST Atomic clock in Boulder, Colorado. A team of atomic physicists is continually measuring every second, of every day, to an accuracy of ten billionths of a second per day. These physicists have created an international standard, measuring a second as 9,192,631,770 vibrations of a Cesium-133 atom in a vacuum. More information on the atomic clock and WWVB can be found at www.nist.gov. PROGRAM MODE Following is a list of steps to set up your new La Crosse Technology travel alarm clock. • Please begin by removing the battery cover on the GB P.2 SIZE AA LR6 + and set. Adverse weather conditions may also affect the travel alarms’ ability to receive the signal. In some cases it may take several nights for the travel alarm to set. • Press and release the “Snooze” button to return the normal display mode or wait 20 seconds and the travel alarm will time out and automatically return to the normal display mode. Manual Time Setting Option You can also manually set the time on your travel alarm by pressing and holding the “MODE/MIN” button (figure two) on the front of your travel alarm for 3 seconds. Time Zone Setting You can select from four U.S. time zones (Eastern, Central, Mountain and Pacific) on your travel alarm. The time zones are abbreviated with three letters as follows: Eastern Central Mountain Pacific S N O O Z E • Next insert one AA alkaline battery into the battery compartment making sure to observe the correct polarity. • When inserting the battery be sure not to press any of the buttons on the travel alarm as this will interrupt the WWVB search and may cause the travel alarm to not pick up the radio-controlled time signal. • Now replace the battery cover and face the travel alarm with the back of the unit towards Colorado (this has been found to help the unit pick up the WWVB signal). • When the WWVB signal is received a tower icon will appear on the left side of the LCD display. NOTE: Due to the nature of the WWVB signal it may take overnight for the travel alarm to receive the signal P.3 GB GB AL / HR IN MO DE / M R R A D I O • • • • C O N T R O L L E D The time zone abbreviation will appear in the LCD. Press and release the “Snooze” button once. The time will now flash in the LCD. Press and release the “AL/HR” button to advance the hours. • Press and release the “MODE/MIN” button to advance the minutes. GB P.4 EST CST MST PST • Press and hold the “MODE/MIN” button for 3 seconds. • The time zone abbreviation will appear in the LCD. NOTE: The default (factory) time zone setting is Eastern time zone. • Press and release the “AL/HR” button to select the desired time zone. • Press and release the “Snooze” button twice to return to the normal display mode or wait 20 seconds and the travel alarm will time out and automatically return to the normal display mode. Daylight Saving Time Setting You can select whether or not your alarm recognizes the daylight saving time changes twice a year and automatically changes. Some areas do not change time P.5 GB for daylight saving time (Arizona and parts of Indiana). The default (factory) setting is daylight saving time on. • Press and hold the “MODE/MIN” button for 3 seconds. • The time zone abbreviation will appear in the LCD. • “DST” will be displayed to the left of the time zone abbreviation. • Press and release the “MODE/MIN” button to toggle between daylight saving time on and off. • Press and release the “Snooze” button twice to return to the normal display mode or wait 20 seconds and the travel alarm will time out and automatically return to the normal display mode. Display Mode Setting The display below the time can be switched between showing the seconds and the alarm time. To switch between these two modes press and release the “MODE/ MIN” button. Setting the Alarm To set the alarm press and hold the “AL/HR” button for three seconds. • The alarm time will flash in the bottom left of the LCD screen. • Press and release the “AL/HR” button to advance to the desired hour. • Press and release the “MODE/MIN” button to advance to the desired minute. GB • Press and release the “Snooze” button to return to the normal display mode or wait 20 seconds and the travel alarm will time out and automatically return to the normal display mode. take up to 72 hours before a good signal is received. The reception can be helped by placing the clock in a window facing Colorado, with the back towards Colorado. Operating the Alarm and Snooze To turn the alarm on press and release the “AL/HR” button. The alarm icon will be displayed in the lower right of the LCD to indicate that the alarm has been turned on. MAINTENANCE AND CARE INSTRUCTIONS The alarm will sound for 100 seconds once activated. By pressing the snooze button the alarm will be suspended for 8 minutes. TROUBLESHOOTING NOTE: For problems not solved, please contact La Crosse Technology via e-mail or phone, or visit our website, www.lacrossetechnology.com Problem: The time and date will not set initially. Solution: It usually takes overnight before the clock can receive the signal due to the interference the sun has on the WWVB signal. Wait overnight for the signal. Solution: Computer monitors and televisions can cause interference with the signal reception. Please keep the clock at least six feet from electrical sources. Solution: In some areas of the US, in particular on the East and West coasts, the signal is very weak.

Contact La Crosse Technology GB La station de radio WWVB du NIST (Institut National des Normes et de la Technologie-Division Heure et Fréquence) est situé à Ft. Collins, Colorado, et transmet sans interruption un signal horaire exact à travers les Etats-Unis à 60 kHz. Le signal peut être capté jusqu’à 3200 km de distance au moyen de l’antenne interne du réveil. Cependant, en raison de la nature de la ionosphère terrestre, la réception est très limitée durant la journée. Le réveil recherche le signal la nuit, moment où la réception est meilleure. La station de radio WWVB reçoit les données horaires de la pendule atomique NIST de Boulder, Colorado. Une équipe de physiciens atomistes mesure continuellement chaque seconde de chaque jour au dix millionième de seconde près par jour. Ces physiciens ont créé une norme internationale selon laquelle une seconde équivaut à 9,192,631,770 vibrations d’un atome de Cesium-133 dans un vacuum.

The travel alarm will be repaired or replaced with the same or similar model. INVENTAIRE Page Inventaire • Extreme temperatures, vibration, and shock should be avoided to prevent damage to the unit. • Clean displays and units with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use solvents or scouring agents; they may mark the displays and casings. • Do not submerge in water. • Do not subject the units to unnecessary heat or cold by placing them in the oven or freezer. • Opening the casings invalidates the warranty. Do not try to repair the unit. Contact La Crosse Technology repairs. immediately upon discovery of any defects covered by this warranty. F F P.12 SIZE AA LR6 + • Commencer par retirer le couvercle de la pile au dos du réveil de voyage, comme indiqué à la Figure Un. • Ensuite, insérer une pile alcaline AA/R6 dans le logement en respectant les polarités. • En mettant la pile en place, n’appuyer sur aucune des commandes du réveil car ceci interromprait la recherche WWVB et pourrait empêcher le réveil de capter le signal horaire radio-commandé. • Remettre ensuite le couvercle en place et orienter le réveil de façon à ce que le dos de l’appareil soit tourné vers le Colorado (ce qui aide à capter le signal WWVB). • Quand le signal WWVB est capté, une icône tour s’affiche sur la gauche du LCD.
