Setup
Follow these steps to set up your wall calendar:
- Unpack: Carefully remove the calendar from its protective packaging and the included gift jacket.
- Choose Location: Select a suitable wall location for hanging. Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and can support the calendar's weight. Avoid areas with direct sunlight or high humidity to prevent fading or damage.
- Hang Securely: Use a sturdy nail, hook, or thumbtack. Insert it through the brass grommet located at the top center of the calendar. The grommet reinforces the hanging hole, preventing tears.
- Adjust Pages: Once hung, gently fan through the pages to ensure they hang flat and are free from any creases or folds.

Operating Instructions
Using your LANG Wall Calendar is intuitive and designed for daily convenience:
- Monthly Display: Each month presents a new, vibrant artwork at the top, with the corresponding calendar grid for the month below.
- Date and Event Tracking: The calendar grid clearly displays days of the week, dates, and includes space for notes. Key holidays and moon phases are pre-marked.
- Writing: The linen-embossed paper is suitable for various writing instruments. For best results, use a pen or pencil and allow ink to dry completely to prevent smudging.
- Page Turning: At the conclusion of each month, gently turn the page over the top to reveal the next month's artwork and calendar layout.

Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and pristine condition of your calendar, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Use a dry, soft, lint-free cloth to gently wipe away any dust from the calendar surface. Do not use liquid cleaners, solvents, or abrasive materials, as these can damage the paper and artwork.
- Handling: Always handle the calendar by its edges to avoid creasing, bending, or tearing the pages.
- Environmental Conditions: Keep the calendar away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and high humidity. Prolonged exposure to these conditions can cause fading of artwork, warping of pages, or damage to the paper.
- Storage (Off-Season): If you choose to store the calendar after the year concludes, lay it flat in a cool, dry place. You may place it back in its original gift jacket for added protection.
Troubleshooting
This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your wall calendar.
| Issue | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Calendar pages appear wavy or warped. | Exposure to high humidity or significant temperature fluctuations. | Relocate the calendar to a drier environment. Laying it flat under a heavy, flat object for a period may help reduce warping. |
| Hanging hole shows signs of tearing. | Excessive weight, improper hanging method, or rough handling. | Ensure the calendar is hung on a single, appropriately sized hook or nail. Avoid pulling or tugging on the calendar. The brass grommet is designed to prevent this, but extreme force can still cause damage. |
| Ink smudges after writing on dates. | Ink not fully dry before touching, or using a non-quick-drying ink. | Allow sufficient time for ink to dry completely before touching or turning pages. Consider using quick-drying pens if smudging persists. |
