Battery Installation

Your RM116E/ RM616N is shipped with two AAA batteries. These batteries should
last for approximately one year depending on the amount of your use of the
HiGlo™ backlight, With convenience and practicality of this dramatic backlighting
system comes somewhat shorter battery life.

To : activate the unit you must FIRST REMOVE THE PROTECTVE
BATTERY TABS which keep the batteries fresh and ready for use during
shipment. Simply slide the battery compartment door up and remove this cover to
expose the batteries, Remove the two small plastic tabs and The RM116E/
RM616N is ready to receive a timekeeping signal.

Please do not become alarmed if the unit does mot receive signal directly from
the box. The unit will receive most dependable and interference free signal
automatically between Midnight and 4 a.m.

Radio Controlled Clock:

The RM116E/ RM616N will automatically synchronize current time and date
with the signal broadcast by the US Atomic Clock when the product is in reception
range of the signal. When the unit is new and just out of the box, synchronization
with the U.S. atomic clock can take upto 72 hours. The unit will receive the most
dependable and interference free signal automatically between Midnight and 4
AM.

When the unit is receiving radio signal, the reception icon will start to blink. The
reception icon will show either strong, weak or no signal depending on the strength
of the radio signal. A complete reception generally takes about 2 to 10 minutes.

When the reception is completed the reception icon will stop blinking. The
reception icon will show [ ] for no Reception or [

] for successful reception.

For best signal reception, place the RM116E/ RM616N away from other equipment
that emit RF or microwave signals such as TV's, radios, PC's or microwave ovens.
Other causes for signal interference include electrical power transmission towers,
steel reinfoced concrete construction, and/or metal siding.

You may need to reposition the clock for maximum reception.

Radio Frequency appliances and radios, such as the Radio Controlled Alarm Clock,
perform best when placed near a window.

After receiving the initial signal, updates are accomplished with greater ease.
Even though there are areas that may have more difficulty in receiving a signal,
the RM116E/ RM616N Alarm Clock contains very accurate quartz movement
and will retain precise time even if a signal is missed on a rare occasion.

SETTING THE ALARM

ENGLISH

Congratulations on your purchase of the first auto-setting always-accurate alarm
clock ! We want you to be very happy with this product,but please remember
this is a radio wave device and not an perfect science. There are certain areas
of the Eastern united States (see map) where urban interference or signals
from United Kingdom’s radio control tower may distort or delay the time
setting signal. Even thought these areas may have more difficulty receiving a
signal, the Radio Controlled™ Clock contains a very accurate quartz
movement and will maintain a precise time even if the radio signal is missed
on occasion.

Please also don’t hesitate to call or email if you have any question about setting
up and/or using your new Radio Controlled Clock. In the meantime, all of us at
Oregon Scientific hope you enjoy this revolutionary advance in time keeping
technology.

FRENCH

Nous vous félicitons d'avoir fait l'acquisition du premier réveil auto-réglable et
toujours précis ! Nous souhaitons que ce produit vous apporte toute satisfaction,
mais vous devez vous rappeler que c'est un dispositif à ondes radio et non une
science parfaite. Il y a certaines zones de l'Est des Etats-Unis (voir carte) dans
lesquelles les interférences urbaines ou des signaux de tours de contrôle radio du
Royaume-Uni peuvent déformer ou retarder le signal de réglage de l'heure. Même
s'il est difficile de capter le signal dans ces zones, la Pendule Radio ControlledTM
contient un mouvement à quartz de haute précision qui indique l'heure exacte
même en l'absence occasionnelle du signal radio.

N'hésitez pas non plus à nous téléphoner ou envoyer un courriel pour toute question
concernant le réglage et/ou le fonctionnement de votre nouvelle pendule radio-
commandée. Dans l'intervalle, nous espérons tous, à Oregon Scientific, que vous
apprécierez cette pièce d'horlogerie révolutionnaire.

Il automatiquement recevra un signal fiable et non brouillé entre minuit et 4 heures.

Pendule radio-commandée:

Le RM116E/ RM616N synchronise automatiquement l'heure et la date actuelles
sur la Pendule Atomique US quand elle se trouve à portée du signal. Quand le
RM116 est neuf et juste sorti de sa boîte, il peut mettre jusqu'à 72 heures pour se
synchroniser sur la pendule atomique. Il reçoit automatiquement un signal le plus
fiable et libre d'interférence entre minuit et 4h.

Quand l'appareil reçoit le signal radio, l'icône de réception clignote. Cette icône
indique un signal fort, faible ou non existant. Une réception complète prend
généralement 2 à 10 minutes.

- Fort

- Faible

- Pas de réception

- Recevant

Quand la réception est terminée, l'icône de réception cesse de clignoter. L'icône
indique [ ] en l'absence de réception et [

] quand celle-ci est réussie.

Pour une meilleure réception du signal, placez le RM116E/ RM616N à l'écart
d'autres appareils émettant des signaux FR ou micro-ondes tels que les téléviseurs,
radios, PC ou fours à micro-ondes. D'autres sources d'interférences sont les tours
de transmission électrique, constructions en béton armé et/ou plaques métalliques.
