I love this timer, have used it for years, but can't remember how to reset the time of day on it. Do I need to remove the batteries first?

Nope, you just need to hold down the "clock" button for a few seconds. Hope that helps

Hold down both the minute and second buttons at the same time and it should reset to 0. It goes back to the last time you had it set to when it finishes, so you need to reset it each time.

Pressing the start/stop button stops the timer from running, but the numbers still appear. Other than popping out the battery, I don't know how to turn that part off. I leave mine on, to that extent, and haven't yet had to replace the battery - it doesn't seem to go through them very fast.

Yes. Once it hits zero, hit the stop button. It'll go right back to whatever time you started with. If you stop it in advance of hitting zero, however, you need to set the time again.

There are two buttons that when you push them at the same time it clears the timer. It says clear on the timer itself. good luck

Yes the time of day does have to be reset. This one is made in Germany and I suspect it will last longer.

Ah, I just did that for my dad's unit yesterday due to daylight saving time change.On the back of the unit, press 'Mode' (farest right) button once, then keep pressing 'Hour' (farest left) button to change the hour until the time showing is what you want. If you need to change the minute, go through the same routine except the minute button,which is the middle one of the 3 buttons on the back of the unit.Good luck!

Not sure what you mean by "reset". The on/off functions are set by mechanical stops and can only be set/reset manually. If the power goes off, the master timer stops running as will any electrical clock. When the power comes back on it will pick up where it left off. In order for it to come on and off at accurate times, you will have to reset the dial (not the stops) to reflect the correct time.

No I would think you would have to reset timer every time you start something. I reset timer every time I use the one I have. I guess the best way to say it the timer will count down. Then after that the timer will restart its self & count UP. FRANZ

Hi Laura, It took me awhile to figure out how to set the timer. (I actually had to read the instructions!) But now it's no problem! Hope this helps, Sarah

To change time, hold down the clock button on the left side of the unit until the time flashes. Then enter all "0's" to clear the tiem - mine didn;t cooperate when I used the "clear" function - and enter the correct time. Press the "clock" button, but don't hold it, once you have the time set. My clock loses time now, so don't rely on it to stay accurate over the life of the unit. Check OXO's web site for a manual or email them to send you one. They have been very responsive in the past. Have a great day!

I set it once based on the instruction set (which I don't have anymore). I think you have to press and hold one of the buttons for a few seconds to set the minutes and press again to set the seconds. Not sure which button though. Good luck. My clock ran 5 minutes fast everyday so I've just ignored it since then.

Just a note. The timer dial must be set to the current time of day (towards the little brass screw at the front edge of the unit). That dial should move as the time advances. Install the red pin at the time you want the device to come on, and the black pin where you want the timer to shut off. But no matter what the timer dial itself should rotate but it moves very slowly. Plug the unit in, set the time of day and walk away for a couple hours and it should have advanced to the current time when you go look again. I doubt two units could be bad, unless they are old and the timer motor is not working at all. Just a note.

When it is in radio mode press the power button to display the time. Press and hold the clock button on the side to enter the clock setting mode. Use the tuning buttons up and down to adjust the hour. Press the clock button again to adjust the minutes. Press the clock button again to exit.My batteries don't last very long either. Don't know why.

If you pull out on the large white knob with the numbers on it; you can disengage the timer. Just pull it towards you slightly. Then use the little white switch in the upper right hand corner to push On or push Off. If you want to use the timer; insert the tabs during the time you want the timer to run for; and set the current time, lined up with the arrow on top. I don't use the timer feature myself; just manual push On or push Off.

As for the time, toggle mode button to the "set" position, then "+" through to "time" (press ok), "time1" (press ok), "manual" (press ok) then set the hour right (using + or -). One way to reset chrono is to stop and save the workout (then delete it or whatever you want). Hope that helps.

Hi Helene, I found the AAA batteries lasted an incredibly short time. I started writing the date on them as I replaced them. using the radio 20-30 minutes a day, I rarely got more than a week's use. Unacceptable. I gave up re-setting the clock since I was replacing the batteries so often. The clock would also return to zero whenever I got a static electricity shock, which happens a lot in the winter. To set: press and hold the clock button until it blinks, then use the up/down tuning keys to change the settings. Press 'clock' again to change minutes, etc. Press 'clock' when you are finished. I think this radio is a dog. Hi Helene, I found the AAA batteries lasted an incredibly short time.
