English

The Braun AW 200 wrist watch is

automatically set and controlled by

the long wave radio signal of the

German time transmitter DCF 77

(Central European Time). The trans-

mitter is situated in Mainflingen,

24 km south of Frankfurt/Main. The

DCF 77 transmitter uses the caesium

atomic clock of the Federal Physical

Technical Institute in Brunswick as

its time source.

Reception

The radio signal can be received

within a 1000 km radius of the trans-

mitter, depending on the position

of the clock and local conditions.

Interference can occur as with any

radio receiver, for example from

external factors (computers, TV sets

and radios), geographical obstacles

(mountains and valleys), or metal

paneling inside or on buildings.

Functions

Resetting seconds/date (B)

Briefly press button 1 to switch

between the seconds or date setting

in the display.

Reception of signal (C)

Your AW 200 synchronises itself

automatically on a daily basis with

the time transmitter DCF 77. This

normally happens between 2 and

3 o’clock at night. To verify if the last

reception process was successful,

briefly press button 2. The display

will show one of the following

symbols:

= last signal successfully

received

= last attempt to receive

signal failed

Manual reception of signal (D)

Manual reception is only necessary

in exceptional cases: For example,

when returning from a trip outside

the transmission range. Briefly press

button 2, so that one of the above

mentioned symbols appears in the

display. Then press and hold the

same button for two more seconds.

The reception is activated when «00»

flashes in the display.

However, as the Braun AW 200

continues to work like a high-preci-

sion quartz watch, inside or out-

side the transmission range, any

deviation will be minimal and will be

corrected when the next synchroni-

sation takes place.

Checking the reference

position (E)

The reference position is very impor-

tant because this tells the electro-

nics where to set the clock hands. If

the watch is subjected to extreme

exposure (highly electromagnetic

field, extreme temperature fluctua-

tions or strong shock to the watch

casing), the reference position can

change.

To check the reference position,

press button 2 for 2 seconds. The

display will show a flashing «12»

while the hands of your watch will
