How do I set the clock on my Sangean WR-2 radio?

[OLaura]

Setting the clock on your Sangean WR-2 Wooden Cabinet Digital Tuning Radio is straightforward, with options for both manual and automatic setting. Here's a step-by-step guide:

Manual Clock Setting:

1. Press the Menu button on the Sangean WR-2.
2. The display will show "CLOCK SET." Press the Tuning control to enter the clock setting.
3. Rotate the Tuning control to select the desired hour, then press the Tuning control to confirm. The minute digits will start flashing.
4. Rotate the Tuning control to adjust the minutes and press the Tuning control to confirm. The clock is now set.

Automatic Clock Setting (using RDS):

1. Tune to a radio station that broadcasts Radio Data System (RDS) data.
2. Press the Menu button on the Sangean WR-2.
3. Rotate the Tuning control until a clock symbol appears on the display. Press the Tuning control to enter the setting.
4. Rotate the Tuning control until "RDS CT" (or "RBDS CT" in North America) appears on the display. Press the Tuning control to confirm.
5. The Sangean WR-2 will automatically set the clock based on the RDS data. The RDS icon will appear on the display, indicating the clock is synchronized.

Note: The RDS feature is primarily available in Europe, the UK, parts of North America, and some Asian countries. If RDS isn't available, or you prefer to set the clock manually:

1. Press the Menu button.
2. Rotate the Tuning control until the clock symbol appears. Press the Tuning control to enter.
3. Rotate the Tuning control until "MANUAL" appears. Press the Tuning control to select it.
4. Follow the manual clock setting instructions above. Remember that accurately setting the clock is necessary for alarm and timer functions.
