Troubleshooting

Clock is not ticking or showing the correct time.

Ensure a new AA battery is inserted with the correct polarity. Check that the battery is securely in place. Adjust the time using the dial on the back. If the issue persists, try a different AA battery.

Hands of the clock are stuck or bent.

Gently try to straighten the hands if they are only slightly bent. Be careful not to apply excessive force. If the hands are severely damaged, contact customer support or consider a replacement mechanism.

The clock seems to be losing time or running fast.

Replace the AA battery with a fresh one. Ensure the clock is placed on a stable, level surface, as vibrations can sometimes affect accuracy.

Metal finish appears dull or tarnished.

Gently polish the metal with a soft, dry cloth. For light tarnish, a specialized metal polish designed for antique brass finishes may be used sparingly, following product instructions carefully. Avoid all moisture.
