5. Press and release the SET button to confirm and advance to

V. TIME
There are two methods by which the time and date can be set:
A) Automatically via WWVB reception, or
B) Manually.
A. WWVB (Remote Control Time)
This method requires you to do nothing, except wait for the signal
to be received, and to select a time zone. Reception usually takes
approximately 6-10 minutes during optimal conditions. The best
conditions for reception is at night, between midnight and 6:00
am—when there is less atmospheric interference. To keep your
time as accurate as possible, the Weather Station conducts a
WWVB search every night between these hours, and overrides any
manually set time. The WWVB tower icon (appearing in the TIME
LCD) will flash when a signal-search is in progress and a signal is
being received, and will remain steady when the signal has been
received. If the WWVB time has not been received after 10
minutes of battery installation, you may manually set the time or
leave the time function alone (reception will occur regardless).
B. MANUAL TIME SETTING
1. Press and hold the SET button for 3 seconds or until “12h”
flashes in the DATE LCD.
2. Press and release the SET button 3 more times (until the hour
digit flashes in the TIME LCD).
3. Press and release the CH button to change the hour. Press
the CH button once and the hour will increase by one, twice
and the hour will increase by two, etc.
4. Press and release the SET button to confirm the hour setting,
and to advance to the minute setting mode.
