Press the up or down button to designate your time zone. Press the alarm button to exit time zone setting mode.

You could search for it on the internet, like I did just now. If you're willing to
stick to it and not give up for about 10 or 15 seconds, you can find several
links to the instructions. I followed one of them, and brought the link back
for you. Look down below this line, where it says <Sources and related links>.

Skyscan model 87315 does not have a manual on the Skyscan website. Use the manual for model 87310 and skip over the temperature transmitter instructions. The instructions for the setup buttons on the back work for 87315. I received the following in an email from the SkyScan website customer service. The clock referenced has a different frame, but the same functions and displays. You can use the manual for model 86730 this is the upgrade from your model and the functions are the same.
Here is a link to the manual.... "http://www.atomicclocksstore.com/skyscan-atomic-clock-model-87700-manual"
After changing batteries and moving the clock the outside temp still does not register. could the remote have goe bad. It has worked for years.
I have installed new batteries and cannot reset clock. ??
