2. Pendulum Attachment

Gently attach the pendulum to the hook located at the bottom of the clock mechanism. Ensure it hangs freely and can swing without obstruction.

3. Setting the Time

Turn the time setting knob (usually located on the back or side of the clock mechanism) clockwise to set the correct time. Avoid turning the hands directly, as this may damage the mechanism.

4. Mounting the Clock

Choose a suitable location on a wall. Use a sturdy screw or hook (not included) appropriate for your wall material. Hang the clock securely using the hanging slot on the back. Ensure it is level for proper pendulum operation.

Sound Control (if applicable)

Refer to the back of the clock (see 'Battery Installation' image) for any switches related to sound control. Some models may include:

ON/OFF Switch: To enable or disable the cuckoo sound.
Volume Control: A dial or switch to adjust the volume of the cuckoo sound.
Night Mode Sensor: Some clocks have a light sensor that automatically silences the cuckoo sound in low light conditions (e.g., at night). Ensure this sensor is not obstructed if you wish for the sound to operate continuously.

Maintenance

Cleaning

Wipe the clock surface with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or chemical sprays, as these may damage the finish.

Battery Replacement

When the clock starts losing time, the cuckoo light feature becomes dim, or the sound becomes weak, it is time to replace the batteries. Follow the 'Battery Installation' steps to replace all 4 x AA batteries with new ones. Dispose of used batteries responsibly according to local regulations.
