FAQs
What type of battery does this clock require?
Please check the battery compartment on the back of the unit, as it typically uses standard AA or AAA alkaline batteries.
Is the clock silent?
As an analog clock, you may hear a faint ticking sound characteristic of mechanical movements.
Can I set the alarm for a specific minute?
The analog alarm is designed for general time settings, so while it can be set near the exact time, it may not be as precise as a digital timer.
How do I turn off the alarm?
There is a physical switch on the back of the clock to toggle the alarm functionality on or off.
Is the clock suitable for travel?
Yes, its compact size and wireless, battery-powered design make it an excellent choice for travel.
Troubleshooting
The clock hands are not moving
Verify that the battery is inserted correctly and has a full charge.
The alarm is not sounding at the correct time
Ensure the alarm hand was set precisely to the desired time and that the alarm switch is in the 'on' position.
The luminous dial is not glowing
Expose the clock face to direct light during the day, as the luminous paint requires a light charge to glow at night.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the Widdop Alarm Clock is straightforward: insert the required battery into the rear compartment, following the polarity markings. To set the time, use the adjustment knob located on the back of the casing to move the hands clockwise. The alarm function is managed via the secondary dial or switch on the rear; ensure you rotate the alarm hand in the direction indicated by the clock's markings. To maintain your clock, wipe the exterior with a dry, soft cloth and avoid using harsh chemicals. If the clock loses accuracy or the alarm volume decreases, replace the battery with a fresh one of the same specification.
