WHAT IS AN ATOMIC CLOCK?  
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.

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.

Heavy stone or metal walls can obstruct the  
signal and disrupt reception. Place the clock  
at least 3 feet (0.91 m) from other electronic  
devices (i.e. TV’s, microwaves, computers,  
etc.) that can interfere with wireless signals.  
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. This clock comes equipped  
with 3 RF signal channels. Inside the battery  
compartments of both units, you’ll find an  
ABC Switch. This switch allows you to toggle  
between the 3 channels to find that provides  
optimum reception.  
Poor Outdoor  
Sensor Reception  
(No bars)  
Battery Choice & Temperature Range:  
extended periods of extreme cold temperatures (be-  
low -4̊f/ -20̊c) can cause alkaline batteries to func-  
tion improperly. this may cause the outdoor wireless  
sensor to stop transmitting temperature readings. we  
recommend using lithium batteries in extreme low  
temperature conditions to ensure continued operation  
of the outdoor sensor.

Relocate the main unit and/or the wireless  
sensor. Both units must 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 interfere  
with the wireless communication (i.e. TV’s,  
microwaves, computers, etc.)  
You may need to reset both units by  
removing and re-installing the batteries.  
Battery Power Consumption:  
the following chart represents estimated battery life expectations based on how you use the indiglo® backlight  
feature. Results may vary.  
Check to make sure the batteries are installed  
correctly. Use only fresh STANDARD “AA”  
batteries, not generic or extra strength. Make  
certain that the batteries are FRESH. If the  
expiration date on your batteries is less than 6  
years away, they may not contain a full charge  
and can be weak.

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 accordingl. 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  
automaticlly adjust itself to the correct time, overriding your manual setting.  
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  
signal, and allow you to set the clock manually.  
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.
