2. Setup Guide
2.1 Battery Installation
The Mooas Flip Desk Clock requires one D-type battery (not included). The average lifespan of a D-type battery is approximately 5 months.
- Locate the battery compartment on the back of the clock.
- Turn the battery cover to open it.
- Insert one D-type battery, ensuring correct polarity (+/-).
- Close the battery cover securely.
This image illustrates the battery compartment on the rear of the clock, indicating how to turn the cover for battery insertion.
3. Operating Instructions
3.1 Setting the Time
To set the time on your Mooas Flip Desk Clock:
- Locate the time setting dial on the right side of the clock.
- Turn the dial counterclockwise to advance the time.
- Continue turning until the desired hour and minute are displayed.
- Observe the AM/PM indicator to ensure the correct 12-hour cycle is set.
Note: There might be a slight minute difference due to the mechanical nature of the clock and how the time is set by the dial. Do not turn the dial in the opposite direction or force it.
This image highlights the time adjustment dial on the side of the clock, used for setting the hour and minute.
4. Maintenance
4.1 Number Pad Separation
In the event that a number pad becomes separated from the clock mechanism:
- Gently bend the separated number pad slightly.
- Carefully fit the ends of the number pad into the corresponding holes on both sides of the mechanism.
This image demonstrates the process of reattaching a detached number pad by gently bending and inserting it into the mechanism's holes.
4.2 Handling Precautions
Avoid touching the internal "orange points" (gears/mechanisms) with your hands, as these are crucial for the flip clock's function and can be sensitive to interference.
This image points out specific areas within the clock's internal mechanism that should not be touched to ensure proper operation.
5. Troubleshooting
- Clock not operating after battery insertion:
Ensure the D-type battery is inserted with correct polarity. If the clock still does not start, try a fresh battery. There is no 'on' button; the clock should begin operating once the battery is correctly installed.
- Time deviation:
Due to the mechanical nature of the flip clock, a slight time deviation of a few minutes per month is normal (up to ±90 seconds/month). If the deviation is significant, ensure the battery is not low. Replace the battery if necessary.
- Difficulty setting time precisely:
The time is set by manually turning the dial. It may require patience to align the time perfectly. If the clock does not flip at the exact minute you expect after setting, allow it to run for a few minutes to observe its natural flipping cycle, then re-adjust if needed. Avoid turning the dial backward.
- Number pads not flipping correctly:
Check if any number pads are dislodged or if there is any obstruction. Refer to Section 4.1 for instructions on reattaching separated number pads. Ensure no foreign objects are interfering with the internal mechanism.
