PENDULUM WALL CLOCK INSTRUCTIONS
UNPACKING
Carefully unpack all the components.
BATTERIES
This clock requires 3 AA batteries (not included). These should be replaced at least
every 12 months or when the pendulum or chimes stop working correctly.
CHIME
This timepiece plays a Westminster chime melody on the hour and has an automatic
shut-off. The clock does not chime between 10:00 p.m and 6:00 a.m. To ensure that
your clock functions correctly, please follow the time and chime setting precisely.
The clock will chime during the day and will automatically turn off at night.
1.
Pull upwards on the back panel.
2.
BEFORE inserting the batteries, set the clock to 6:05 AM.
3.
Insert 1 AA battery into the clock battery chamber according to the positive (+)
and negative (-) symbols.
4.
Insert 2 AA batteries into the chime battery chamber according to the positive (+)
and negative (-) symbols. Make sure the batteries are secure in the holder. The clock
will chime automatically 6 times.
5.
Now turn hands (using the knob) slowly to the present hour (in a clockwise
direction).
Remember that the clock started at 6:05 in the morning. If setting at night, for
example to 9:20 p.m., the hands should be turned thus: 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 1, 2, 3, 4,
5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and then 9:20. The last strike you will hear will be 9 times.
NOTE: When moving hands to the present time the clock will begin chiming. Do not
be concerned about this. The last strike you hear after setting the clock at the
appointed time will be the correct one.
6. When replacing the batteries, remember that all the above must be repeated
from point one, and the clock must be started again at 6:05 a.m. Therefore, please
keep these instructions as a reminder. By the time the batteries should be replaced,
you may have forgotten how to set the clock.
7. To operate without the chimes, remove the two batteries from the chime
battery chamber.
8. Never turn clock hands counter clockwise as it will interrupt the chime sequence
and damage the clock.
NOTE: When batteries are low, the chimes will not remain coordinated with the
time on the clock. When this happens, replace with new batteries and reset the clock
as listed above.
