Checking the Signal Status
The following chart shows the symbols
for the current or last update to the radio
reception
.
Daylight Savings Time (DST)
The WWVB radio signal adjusts for day-
light saving time so the time displayed on
the clock is accurate, regardless of the
time of year. When the signal contains
DST information, appears.
Hint:
If you are in an area that does not
use daylight saving time, press
MODE
five times then press
DOWN
once to set
your local time (city) to one time zone
west
of where you are located. When
DST ends, reset the clock to your city’s
usual time zone.
RESETTING YOUR LOCAL
TIME ZONE
The clock radio is preset to the Pacific
Standard (LAX) time zone.
Follow these steps to select a different
local time zone if you have already set a
time zone.
Note:
The time zone you set will take ef-
fect the next time the clock synchronizes
with WWVB.
1. Select a city in your time zone from
the chart at the end of this section.
Note:
Time zones designated by
their UTC number indicate that no
known city exists in that part of the
globe. Typically these zones include
major sections of ocean.
2. Press
MODE
five times. The cur-
rently selected city flashes while the
time setting disappears.
Within the last 6
hours, the signal
reception was poor
and the clock set-
tings were not set
or updated.
The clock is now
receiving a WWVB
signal.
Within the last 6
hours the signal
reception was
strong enough to
automatically set
the clock’s time and
date.
