OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Carefully unpack your clock.
Open the back door and remove gently the paper holding the gong
and hammer in place.
At the end of the book you will find two photographs showing the
back of the clock.
Photo A if for Standard 8-day movement (with alarm if fitted) and
photo B features a strike, calendar, moonphase movement.

WINDING

Your clock will require winding every 8 days.
Use the longer end of the key to wind the movement (1). Ensure this
is fully wound.
Use the longer end of the key to wind the strike spring (6) if you clock
has one.
If your clock is fitted with an alarm, use the smaller end of the key to
wind (4). The alarm should be wound before each use.

SETTING THE TIME

Use the smaller end of the key and turn the hand setter (2) in the
direction of arrow. If your clock is fitted with a strike, please wait to
allow the clock to strike once at half hours, and full count for hours.

REPEATER

If you have a clock with a repeater, depressing the small button lo­cated on the top of the clock will make it strike the last full hour.

SETTING THE ALARM

Use the smaller end of the key and turn the alarm setter (3) in the
direction of arrow. This will move the small hand found in the lower
central part of the clock dial, and indicate the alarm time set.

SETTING THE CALENDAR

If your clock is fitted with a calendar mechanism, the setting must be
done when the clock is being wound or after it has stopped, either
before 8pm or after 2 am.
Use the smaller end of the key and fit it onto the calendar adjuster
(7). Turn the key slowly clockwise. The hand of the weekly indicator
on the left side of the dial will move up to the desired day. Then, with
the key still in position, slowly turn the key anti-clockwise, and the
hand of the daily indicator on the right side of dial will move up to
desired date.
The calendar must be reset for months with 28, 29, 30 days.

MOONPHASE INDICATOR

If your clock is fitted with moonphases, the settting must be made
after setting the time and calendar. Use the smaller end of the key
and fit it onto the moonphase adjuster (8). Turn slowly clockwise to
move the moon forward to the right position. If you have moved too
far you can turn the key anti-clockwise. Refer to a diary to know the
exact position of the moon.

the right to make the clock run faster, and push lever (5) to the left to
make it run slower.

If your clock is fitted with a musical mechanism, use the smaller end
of the key to wind under the base of the clock and turn the key only
in the direction of arrow.
Music will play at the time indicated by the alarm hand. Setting the
alarm remains unchanged.

Déballez votre pendule avec précaution.
Ouvrez la porte arrière et enlevez avec précaution la cale retenant le

est possible que votre modèle ne comporte pas tous les éléments
du shéma. Ce dernier, par contre, comporte au moins chacun des
éléments de votre pendule.
