Instruction Manual

INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on your purchase of the RF Projection Clock

(RM813P/RM813PU).

The RM813P/RM813PU is a multifunctional radio-controlled

clock. It can automatically synchronize its current time and date

when brought within an approximate 1500 km radius of the radio

signal DCF77 generated from Frankfurt, Germany (the UK version

from MSF Rugby, England).

To facilitate night time reading, the unit comes with a projector that

can cast large, clear clock-time figures onto flat surfaces in dark. It

also has a guiding light at the back of the unit.

BATTERY INSTALLATION

The unit uses two (2) UM-3 or “AA” size 1.5V batteries.

To insert batteries:

1. Slide the battery door in the direction of the arrow.

2. Insert the batteries strictly according to the polarities shown

therein.

3. Replace the battery compartment door.

4. Press the [RESET] button.

When the low battery indicator [ ] is shown on the display,

replace with fresh batteries.

Note: Under normal circumstances, the batteries are good for 1

year. However, the battery life can be reduced vastly by frequent

use of the projector or snooze function.

If not disposed of properly batteries can be harmful.

Protect the environment by taking exhausted batteries

to authorized disposal stations.

HOW TO USE THE PROJECTOR

Press [ SNOOZE ] and the projection will be activated for

approximately 5 seconds.

Note: Make sure the [ PROJECTION ON ] switch is switched to the

front.

HOW TO USE THE PROJECTOR

WITH POWER ADAPTER

RM813P/RM813PU comes with an AC power adapter. Use of the

AC power adapter is required for continuous time projection.

To install the adapter:

1. Insert adapter into jack at the bottom of the unit.

2. Plug the adapter into an electrical wall outlet.

Note: Make sure the voltage is correct.

Once the power adapter is in place, you can select to turn on the

projector for longer time (such as throughout the night) by sliding

the [ PROJECTION ON ] switch on the side of the unit to the back.

To turn off the projector, slide the switch back.

Note that this switch can only be used with the power

adapter installed. For momentary projection, use the

[ SNOOZE ].

ABOUT RADIO RECEPTION

RM813P/RM813PU is designed to synchronize its calendar clock

automatically once it is brought within range of the Frankfurt

DCF77 radio signal (MSF60 for UK version).

When RM813P/RM813PU is within range, the radio-controlled

mechanism will override all manual setting unless radio reception

is being deactivated.

When the unit is receiving signal, the Radio Reception symbol

[] will start to blink. Generally, complete reception takes

around 2 to 10 minutes depending on the strength of the radio

signal.

To disable the reception of RF signal manually, press and hold the

[ ] button for 2 seconds until the Radio Reception symbol

disappear.

To enable the reception again, press and hold the [ ] button for

2 seconds. The Radio Reception symbol will blink and the unit

will search for RF signal automatically.
