Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your Karlsson Wide Flip Clock, insert the required batteries into the compartment located at the rear of the device. Once powered, use the adjustment knob—usually located on the side or back—to rotate the plates until the correct time is set. Avoid rotating the plates manually with your fingers, as this can damage the internal gear mechanism. For cleaning, use a soft, dry microfiber cloth to wipe the outer casing. Avoid using liquid cleaners, chemicals, or abrasive sponges, as these can scratch the plastic housing or interfere with the sensitive flip plates. If the clock is mounted on a wall, ensure you use the appropriate hardware for your wall type to securely hold the weight of the mechanism.
