Impostare
1. Installazione della batteria
Your Kit Cat Klock requires two (2) C batteries (not included). To install the batteries:

- Replace the back cover, ensuring it snaps securely into place.

2. Montaggio dell'orologio
The Kit Cat Klock is designed for wall mounting. A screw is recommended for stability. Ensure the mounting surface is secure.
- Choose a suitable location on your wall.
- Install a screw into the wall, leaving a small portion exposed for the clock's hanging slot.
- Hang the clock securely on the screw.
- Adjust the vertical angle slightly if needed to ensure smooth tail movement.
3. Impostazione dell'ora
To set the time on your Kit Cat Klock, only move the minute hand. Moving the hour hand directly may damage the clock mechanism.
Istruzioni per l'uso
Once batteries are installed and the time is set, your Kit Cat Klock will begin its characteristic operation:
- Occhi roteanti: The cat's eyes will roll from side to side in a synchronized motion.
- Wagging Tail: The tail will wag back and forth, adding to the clock's animated charm.
The clock is battery-powered, offering flexibility in placement without the need for electrical outlets or cords.

Manutenzione
1. Sostituzione della batteria
Replace the two C batteries when the clock's movement (eyes and tail) slows down or stops. It is recommended to replace both batteries at the same time for optimal performance.
2. Pulizia
To clean your Kit Cat Klock, gently wipe the surface with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these may damage the finish.
3. Lubrication (If Needed)
If the eyes or tail movement becomes stiff or stops, a small amount of lubricant, such as castor oil applied with a pointed cotton swab, can be used on the pivot points of the eyes and the bracket where the tail connects. This can help restore smooth operation.
Risoluzione dei problemi
If your Kit Cat Klock is not functioning as expected, consider the following:
- No Movement (Eyes/Tail): Ensure batteries are fresh and correctly installed. Check for any obstructions in the movement mechanism.
- Movimento intermittente: This can sometimes be caused by electrical interference from nearby appliances or wiring. Try relocating the clock to a different wall or room.
- Movimento rigido: Apply a small amount of lubricant (e.g., castor oil) to the pivot points of the eyes and the tail bracket as described in the Maintenance section.
- Ora errata: Ensure you only adjust the minute hand when setting the time.
