Hanging the Clock
Dependent on the size of your clock it will have either one or two
screw holes on which to hang it on the wall. Included with the clock
is a clock hanging template which provides further instructions and
allows you to easily locate exactly where to drill and position the
screws.
Start by working out where and at what height you want to hang
your clock then position the drilling guide to match the desired
clock outline. (If you have some masking tape to hold the guide to
the wall this would make things easier!) Do also take care to ensure
the horizontal line on the drill guide is actually horizontal!
You can then mark the wall through the paper (perhaps with the
tip of a nail) and remove the template prior to drilling on the newly
marked locations.
Please take care to ensure you use a drill bit, wall plugs and screws
that are appropriate to your wall type as well as taking appropriate
safety precautions when using a drill. This includes ensuring thet
the wall is suitable to drill into and free of electrical wires. Take
advice if necessary or ask a professional for help!
Changing the batteries
The batteries included with your Tide Clock will, of course, not
last forever. When the remaining battery life reaches a lower level
a clever mechanism switches off the demonstration function to
conserve power. This helps maximise the amount of time your
clock will continue its day to day function – which in normal
circumstances should be over a year.
