Wall Clock ModelsUnlock the pendulum holder from its shipping position by gently sliding the pendulum out of its holder and to the right until it hangs freely. SEE PICTURE. Carefully place the pendulum on the hanger. Batteries: Use Only Alkaline Duracell C Batteries!Insert fresh Duracell Brand C batteries with the + at the top. Please change your batteries once a year. This will ensure accurate timekeeping and a consistent chime sound for your enjoyment. Low Battery Warning FeatureIf your clock starts chiming erratically, or (if so equipped) the pendulum stops, please install new batteries. Time SettingSet time by advancing the minute hand (NEVER the hour hand) or turn the hand setting knob at the rear of movement clockwise or counter-clockwise to the correct time. The correct chiming will start at the next full hour. In the interim, the quarter-hour chimes may sound at the wrong time. This will correct itself in the next full hour. Volume controlBy turning the knob, the chime loudness can be adjusted. Turning the knob clockwise reduces the volume. Mounting wall clock modelsHang your clock vertically to the desired location. If possible, your clock should be mounted on a wall stud. Ensure the clock will not shift on the wall when the door is opened. Start the pendulum by moving it approximately 1 1/2 inch to the left or right and releasing it. Be sure that the pendulum can swing freely. RegulationDue to the high accuracy and reliability of the quartz movement, adjustment to timekeeping is unnecessary. |
