I ask as one I bought had the batteries in it already, it came when I was out and mum had opened it up and placed it by the window for me but was cursing because it wasn't working and setting itself, I went in to the battery compartment and found one of those bits of plastic they use and you usually have to pull out so the attereis make contact, it worked after that.

They arrived this morning. I have put in the batteries. At the time of purchase I was told that they would take their time from radio waves or something. In other words I did not have to set the time. It happened automatically. Unfortunately this is not the case and each clock started at 12.00. The one with the speech and large letters is also stuck back on January 1st. I haven't a clue how to set the time or the alarm on either. Can anyone help please? both clocks are silver ones just in case that matters but would at least hellp with knowing which ones I have purchased.
