Product Information
Full details
The Karlsson Boxed Flip Table Clock in black is an ideal choice for design-conscious individuals looking for a minimalist, modern statement piece for their home or office. It delivers a satisfying, unique method of timekeeping via its rotating flip cards, offering a refreshing departure from standard analog or digital displays. While it excels in aesthetics and legibility, users should note that the clock requires two C batteries which are not included, and the mechanical flipping mechanism produces a soft, audible sound that may be noticeable in perfectly silent environments.

FAQs
Does this clock feature an alarm?
No, the Karlsson Boxed Flip Table Clock is a time-only display and does not include an alarm function.
What type of batteries does it need?
It requires two C batteries, which are not included with the purchase.
Is the flip sound loud?
The sound is a soft, mechanical click that occurs when the minutes change. It is generally quiet enough for offices but may be audible in a completely silent room.

How do I set the time?

Troubleshooting
The clock is not displaying the correct time
Check that the C batteries are seated correctly and have sufficient charge. Use the side adjustment knob to manually reset the time.
One of the cards is stuck or not flipping
Ensure the clock is on a level surface. Gently tap the side of the housing or lightly rotate the time-adjustment knob to encourage the mechanical movement to cycle.
Clock is making louder-than-normal noises
Verify that no debris has entered the flip display area and ensure the clock is placed on a vibration-dampening surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your Karlsson Flip clock, remove the back cover to access the battery compartment. Insert two fresh C batteries, ensuring the polarities match the internal markings. Once powered, rotate the manual adjustment knob usually located on the side to align the time. For maintenance, keep the clock away from excessive moisture or direct heat sources to preserve the finish. Since the clock relies on a mechanical flip system, avoid forcefully stopping the cards while they are rotating. To clean, use a dry, soft microfiber cloth to gently dust the exterior and the display window; avoid using abrasive chemicals or water, which could damage the matte coating or the internal gears.
