How do you set the countdown snowman by Gemmy Industries Corporation?

Answer 1

1. The product is designed to display the countdown of Numbers of Days, Hours,

Minutes and Seconds until Christmas. December 25th is pre-programmed. Please

keep in mind, this does not operate like a regular clock. Therefore, by setting your

current Hours, Minutes and Seconds, followed by the current Year, Month and Date,

the Countdown clock will do the rest.

2. Locate the 2 buttons on the side of the Countdown display:

a. Set

b. Mode

3. Plug in the adapter to outlet and into the back of the Countdown display. When

turning on for the first time, the large display will show 99. Please note: This is the

maximum number of days prior to Christmas which the clock can count down to

Christmas. Also note: You must follow the sequence below in order to correctly set up

your Countdown Clock.

4. Set the Time:

a. Press the Set button and it will display "Ct" which stands for "Current Time". The

Countdown Clock is programmed for military time since there is no additional

button to distinguish between AM and PM. Therefore if you are setting it up in

the afternoon or evening (PM) add the current hour + 12. (3:00PM = 15PM).

b. Press the Mode button for 2 seconds and Hour display will flash. Press the Set

button again until you reach the current Hour.

c. Next, press Mode button to confirm and the next window will flash, Minutes. Repeat

the process until you have set the Seconds and your current time is complete.

Push the Mode button once and you are ready to set the Current Date.

5. Set the Date:

a. Press the Mode button and it will display "Cd" which stands for "Current Date".

Press the mode button for 2 seconds and the 1st window YEAR (HOURS) should

be flashing.

b. Press the Set button until you reach the current Year (00 to 99) (Year 2009

would be 09).

c. Press the Mode button and MONTH (MINUTES) display will flash.

d. Repeat the process until you have set the DAY (SECONDS) and your current date

complete.
