[. . . ] and minute hand synchronization occurs between 1:50 and 2:01 am every day. Signal Interference: In some cases, the signal can be affected by weather conditions and electrical interferences, or the location of the clock itself may result in poor reception. If the clock has not synchronized to the correct time within a few days of activation, you may wish to move the clock to a different location. Try to place it near an outside wall closest to the direction of Colorado. [. . . ] In this case, do not attempt to reset the hands manually even though the time displayed on the clock is incorrect. The clock is synchronizing to the WWVB signal and once the radio signal is decoded, the hands will automatically adjust to the correct time. The WAVE button can be used to attempt an enforced signal receipt. To activate, hold the WAVE button down for 3+ seconds. Once the WAVE feature is activated, the hands will automatically reset to the 12:00 position, and the movement will attempt to enforce a signal receipt from Fort Collins, CO. If the movement successfully receives the signal, the clock will reset automatically to the correct time. Generally, the signal enforced receipt takes approximately 3-8 minutes. If the clock still fails to receive the signal while in the WAVE mode, the clock will automatically leave the WAVE mode. In this case, set the clock manually according to instructions below and the time keeping function will be controlled by the movement's micro-CPU. Manual Set: On rare occasions in certain areas, the clock may not be able to utilize the radio-controlled function because of either the strength of the signal or the geographic location. In this case, the clock can be set manually and used as a regular quartz wall clock. The WWVB time signal will easily penetrate masonry and wood framed buildings. The WWVB signal will penetrate almost every residential building and most steel buildings if they have adequate windows. It is not possible, however, for the WWVB signal to penetrate most indoor shopping malls and rooms in the center of large office buildings that do not have windows. In buildings that WWVB cannot penetrate you may set the time using the manual time set button. When the clock receives the WWVB signal it will automatically set the hands to the exact time. La Crosse Technology atomic clocks do not receive or process radio controlled time signals from Germany's DCF 77, Japan's J Ga AS, or England's MSFs atomically regulated transmitters. La Crosse Technology atomic clocks can be manually set and used anywhere. Please Note: WWVB time will over ride a manual setting.

Your La Crosse Technology clock will read this information and automatically advance the hands one hour in the spring and eleven hours in the fall.
