8. Before you start

Position the device on a stable, flat surface and do not place any heavy objects

on the device. Next, connect the power plug of the power cord (18) to an

easily accessible power socket. The display (1) will read SYNC. The device

automatically sets the correct time on initial start-up and after resetting,

searches for and stores all receivable stations. This process may take a few

minutes.

Note: To start this procedure after resetting, unplug the power plug and

reconnect it after the display has gone out completely.

Due to high-frequency interference and unfavorable reception

conditions, e.g. in heavily shielded buildings, the reception of clock

signals may be restricted or not possible at all. In this case, you can

set the time manually as described in the chapter “Manual time

setting”.

To avoid having to reset the station and alarm time settings after a

power failure, they are stored permanently.

The current time is set automatically when the power supply is

restored.

8.1 Wire antenna

A wire antenna (17) can be found on the rear side of the device. It is wound

up in the as-delivered condition. To improve the reception characteristics of the

radio, unwind it completely.

9. Getting started

9.1 Display lighting

You can adjust the display brightness to your needs in 3 steps. Press the

SNOOZE button (13) as many times as necessary to reach the desired

display brightness.

Press and hold the SNOOZE button (13) for approx. 2 seconds to switch off

the display (1). The display (1) switches on for approx. 10 seconds as soon as

a button has been pressed. Briefly press the SNOOZE button (13), to power

on the display (1) permanently.

9.2 Switching the device on/off

To power the device on, press the button (12) once. After switching on, the

display (1) shows the currently selected frequency for a few seconds. Then the

display changes to the current time.

To power the device off, press the button (12) briefly.

Different indicators are active when the device is switched on or off.

Always:

• Alarm time 1 (29) and alarm time 2 (28) each with set alarm type, if

active.

• During the time display, the PM symbol (20) with activated 12-hour time

mode for the time from 12.00 noon to midnight.

• NAP (24) with enabled NAP timer

Only when switched on:

• In radio mode, the symbol (19) is displayed for the FM band and

additionally “MHZ” (26) as long as the current frequency is displayed.

• symbol (25) with SLEEP timer activated

SilverCrest SWRK 800 B2

US-EN – 17

Only when switched off:

• Current time

• symbol (23) with SNOOZE timer activated

9.3 Setting the date and time

9.3.1 Automatic setting via the RBDS signal

The radio alarm clock is equipped with an automatic time display. The date

and time are set automatically after the first connection to the power. The

SYNC indicator on the display (1) indicates that the radio alarm clock is

waiting for the date and time signal. After receiving the signal, the display (1)

shows the current time.

Due to high-frequency interference and unfavorable reception

conditions, e.g. in heavily shielded buildings, the reception of clock

signals may be restricted or not possible at all. In this case, you can

set the time manually as described in the chapter “Manual time

setting”.

9.3.2 Manual time setting

In addition to the automatic setting of the time, it is also possible to set the time

manually. This can be useful if the RBDS signal cannot be received for some

reason:

• In the switched-off state, press and hold the SET/STORE/AMS button (4)

for approx. 2 seconds until the display switches from the current time to

24h. Now, select between 12- and 24-hour mode using the (6) or

(7) button. Press the SET/STORE/AMS button (4) to confirm your

selection.

SilverCrest SWRK 800 B2

• The hours start flashing. Press the (6) or (7) button to set the correct

hour. Press the SET/STORE/AMS button (4) to confirm your selection.

• The minutes start flashing. Press the (6) or (7) button to set the

correct minutes. Press the SET/STORE/AMS button (4) to confirm your

d-3 Wednesday

d-4 Thursday

d-5 Friday

d-6 Saturday

d-7 Sunday

Now the setting option for the automatic time synchronization appears.

• The CT-ON indicator is flashing. Use the (6) or (7) buttons to select

between CT-ON to activate automatic time synchronization and CT-OFF

to deactivate it. Press the SET/STORE/AMS button (4) to confirm your

selection.

Now you have the possibility to set a daily recurring period in which the

display brightness is reduced to the lowest level.

• “AUTO DIM” appears at the bottom of the display and “ON” or “OFF”

flashes above it.
