This product has been made to the highest standards

of quality, functionality and design. We hope that it will

give you many years of satisfaction.

The Braun quadrondo is set and controlled automa-

tically by the long wave radio signal of the German time

transmitter DCF 77 (Central European Time). The trans-

mitter is situated at Mainflingen, 24 km south of

Frankfurt/Main.

It uses as time source the caesium atomic clock of the

Federal Physical Technical Institute in Brunswick.

The radio signal can be received within a minimum

radius of 1000 km of the transmitter depending on

the position of the clock and the local conditions.

Interference can occur as with any radio receiver, f. ex.

caused by external factors such as TV sets, computers

or radios, or by metal paneling in or on buildings (see

separate paragraph «Interference»).

Inserting the battery

This appliance operates with one AA 1.5 V battery. For

best performance, use an alkaline manganese battery

(type LR 6, MN 1500, AM 3, AA, e.g. Duracell

®

).

Do not use rechargeable batteries, since their voltage

level is too low.

To open the battery compartment, press on the lid

closure and lift it. Insert the battery with the poles in the

proper direction. To close the battery compartment,

re-insert the lid and press until it engages.

Used batteries should not be disposed of with

the household waste. Please dispose of them at

special collection points or return them to your

retailer.

Reception

After inserting the battery, the hands are moving with

increased speed towards the reference position at

12 o'clock.

If valid time signal is received (after 2 – 10 minutes), the

minute and hour hands move to the actual time

position.

A time check is carried out every 12 hours (2:00 h and

14:00 h): The time is compared with the radio signal

and will be corrected, if necessary.

If signal reception should not be possible at this point

in time, the clock continues to run on its quartz

mechanism.

Interference

Should the reception be disturbed, move the clock to

another position where reception is better.

If the clock is not being set automatically (no reception),

it can be set manually.

Should contact to the radio signal be restored, the time

will automatically be adjusted according to the signal

received.

Setting the time manually

In the case of no reception during 10 minutes or if you

wish to set the time before reception, press the time

button (6) in the battery compartment.

– Press the time button repeatedly to move the minute

hand by minute steps.

– Keep the time button pressed down longer than

3 seconds to move the hands with increased speed.

With the next valid reception of the time signal, the time

will be adjusted automatically.

The clock may also be operated as a regular quartz

clock. If you press the time button (6) while inserting the

battery, the clock will work on its quartz mode and not

receive any radio signal. Use the time button to set the

time. In order re-activate the radio control feature,

press the reset button (5) in the battery compartment.

Alarm function

The alarm set button (2) can only be turned in the

direction of the arrow.

The alarm function is activated by pressing the «alarm

on/off» bar (1).

The blue side of the alarm on/off bar is visible when the

alarm is activated.

Snooze/light function

The snooze/light button (3) is located at the bottom of

the clock housing and will activated when pressing on

the clock housing: The clock face will be illuminated for

8 seconds. When activating the snooze/light button

while an alarm signal is given, the alarm is interrupted

and resumes after 8 minutes.

Battery check system

If the battery is running low, the light flashes. For a

reliable alarm function of the clock, you should insert a

new battery.

As an additional safety precaution, the clock will

generate an error beep when you insert an empty

battery or if you activate the alarm function with a low-

charge battery inserted.

Subject to change without notice.

This product conforms to the European

Directive EMC 89/336/EEC.

At the end of the product's useful life, please

dispose of it at appropriate collection points

provided in your country.
