Timex 75324T Operation & User’s Manual

with indoor/outdoor temperature, calendar and moon phase USER GUIDE Package Contents: (1) Atomic Digital Clock (1) Wireless Outdoor Temperature Sensor (1) User Guide What You’ll Need: (8) AA Batteries Thank you for purchasing this quality TIMEX® brand product. Please read these instructions COMPLETELY to fully understand the features and functions of this clock, and to enjoy its benefits. Make sure to keep this guide handy for future reference. 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.

By doing so, the clock will automatically light up in the dark. If not needed, you may choose the OFF setting. This will prevent the backlight from coming on and will conserve battery power. 1 Please DO NOT return product to the retail store.

Remove batteries from equipment which is not to be used for an extended period of time. Follow the polarity (+/-) diagram in the battery compartment. Promptly remove dead batteries from the device. Dispose of used batteries properly. Only batteries of the same or equivalent type as recommended are to be used. DO NOT incinerate used batteries. DO NOT dispose of batteries in fire, as batteries may explode or leak. DO NOT mix old and new batteries or types of batteries (alkaline/standard). DO NOT use rechargeable batteries. DO NOT recharge non-rechargeable batteries. DO NOT short-circuit the supply terminals. PLEASE DISPOSE OF OLD OR DEFECTIVE BATTERIES IN AN ENVIRONMENTALLY SAFE WAY AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH YOUR LOCAL LAWS AND REGULATIONS. LIMITED ONE YEAR WARRANTY - Chaney Instrument Company warrants that all products it manufactures to be of good material and workmanship and to be free of defects if properly installed and operated for a period of one year from date of purchase. REMEDY FOR BREACH OF THIS WARRANTY IS EXPRESSLY LIMITED TO REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT OF DEFECTIVE ITEMS. Any product which, under normal use and service, is proven to breach the warranty contained herein within ONE YEAR from date of sale will, upon examination by Chaney, and at its sole option, be repaired or replaced by Chaney.

The clock will initially set itself to the correct time, defaulting to EST (Eastern Standard Time). It will also begin displaying the temperatures. The clock will begin searching for the Atomic signal. After the clock acquires the Atomic clock radio (this may take 24-48 hours) the time, date and daylight saving time changes will update automatically, giving you maintenance-free operation and perfect time precision.

please use the instructions on page 5. 1. Press and HOLD the SET button until you see the selection of seven time zones flashing on the LCD screen 2. Press the UP (s) ARROW repeatedly until you reach your time zone, then press SET 3 6 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. Battery Power Consumption: The following chart represents estimated battery life expectations based on how you use the Indiglo® backlight feature. Results may vary. To consrve battery power you may choose the OFF or LOW setting for the backlight.

Choosing Your Time Zone Relocate or reposition the clock, making sure the backside of the unit is facing in a direction toward Colorado from your location. 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. 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. 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. 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.

You may place your wireless temperature sensor outside up to 100 feet (30m) from the clock, as shown. Placement of the Clock: Place the clock in an area free of dirt and dust. To help ensure an accurate indoor temperature measurement, be sure to place the main unit out of direct sunlight, and away from any heat sources or vents in your home. This clock may be hung on a wall using the integrated wall-hanging hole, or you may place the unit on a tabletop or other flat surface using the swing-out stands. Placement of the Outdoor Sensor: 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. 164 Feet Maximum (50 meters) 100’ Feet a) Press and HOLD the SET button until you see the selection of seven time zones b) Press the UP (s) ARROW repeatedly until you reach your time zone, then press SET. a) Press the UP (s) ARROW to turn DST (Daylight Saving Time) function on or off.

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. 1) SETTING YOUR TIME ZONE 3) SETTING THE CLOCK & CALENDAR 2) TURNING ATOMIC CLOCK FEATURE ON/OFF DAY OF THE WEEK AND MOON PHASE WILL UPDATE AUTOMATICALLY AS YOU SET THE DATE The main unit has signal reception icons in the outdoor temperature display area and near the clock display.
