Operating Instructions
Reading the Time
The clock displays time using traditional analog hour, minute, and second hands. The silent quartz movement ensures no ticking sound.
Reading Temperature and Humidity
The integrated thermometer and hygrometer gauges are located on the clock face:
- The thermometer displays temperature in Fahrenheit (°F).

Allow several minutes for the thermometer and hygrometer to adjust and display accurate readings after the clock is moved to a new environment.

Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Clock not working / hands not moving. | Battery is dead or incorrectly installed. | Replace the AA battery, ensuring correct polarity (+/-). |
| Time is inaccurate. | Battery is low. | Replace the AA battery. |
| Thermometer/Hygrometer readings are inaccurate. | Recently moved the clock; not enough time to adjust. | Allow several minutes (up to 30 minutes) for the gauges to stabilize in the new environment. Note specified error margins. |
| Water inside the clock (despite being waterproof). | Exposure to direct, heavy rain or submersion. | The clock is designed for waterproof use but should ideally be hung on a roofed outdoor wall to prevent direct exposure to extreme weather conditions.
