RADIO-CONTROLLED CLOCK
The time and date are automatically updated by radio-
controlled clock signals from official time-keeping
organizations in Frankfurt (Germany) and Rugby
(England) unless you disable this feature. The signals
are collected by the remote sensor (RTGR328N)

Initial reception takes 2-10 minutes, and is initiated when
you first set up the unit, and whenever you press RESET.
Once complete, the reception icon will stop blinking.
