Step 3: Do Not Touch
- Place the clock near a window facing Fort Collins, Colorado (USA) or Frankfurt (Germany) or Anthorn (UK) , depending on your continent.
- Do not press any buttons for the first 12 minutes. The signal search is delicate.
How to Manually Set the CH899:
- Press and hold the WAVE button until the second hand (or LCD) stops moving (about 8 seconds). This disables auto-reception temporarily.
- Turn the manual set knob (on the back) to move the hour and minute hands to the correct time.
- Press RESET (paperclip) to lock the manual position.
- To re-enable auto-sync, remove and re-insert batteries at night (12 AM – 4 AM is best for signal).
A. Battery Installation
- Open the battery compartment on the back.
- Insert one AA battery (Alkaline recommended).
- Important: Ensure the polarity (+/-) is correct.
- Upon inserting the battery, the second hand may spin, or the clock will enter "Reception Mode."
5. Time Zone Adjustment (for multi-zone models)
If your CH899 has a time zone dial or switch on the back:
- Set the switch to your zone (e.g., PST, MST, CST, EST for US models).
- The clock will automatically apply the correct offset from the atomic signal (UTC).
❌ The clock resets every night
- Cause: Weak overnight signal. The clock is trying to sync and failing.
- Fix: Replace batteries (weak voltage stops the motor from receiving data properly). Move the clock to a different room.
