Atomic Radio Controlled Clock Instructions
I have a Sharp atomic radio controlled wall clock. It is round brushed silver, has a second hand,and battery.
There are only 4 buttons: PT MT CT ET on the back. There is no model number but it does have “U. T. S. WWVB Radio Control.” There is also a little round hole with two tiny prongs recessed in it. It did not pick up the recent day light savings time change. I need to know how to set it or get a copy of the instructions.
This clock does not seem to be able to correct for the new date changes in DST. It will probably fix itself in a few weeks when the “old” DST is supposed to kick in but… I found a link on amazon so you can overide it in the meantime.
1) Pull the battery and wait a few minutes.
2) Put battery back in – time will set to 8:00 (or possibly something different). 4, 8, or 12
3) After it stops spinning, Press the “leverage button” (just above an to the left of the time zone buttons and battery) and the clock hands will spin. (It does not look like a button, its a lever)
4) Release the leverage button when the correct time is reached.
5) Supposedly, this new time will track correctly and keep accurate time.
It took me a few tries to get it right.
Good Luck
