Insert one (1) AA 1.5V battery, ensuring the correct polarity (+ and -) as indicated inside the compartment.
Riposizionare saldamente il coperchio del vano batteria.
Nota: Le batterie non sono incluse nel prodotto e devono essere acquistate separatamente.

2.2 Sincronizzazione iniziale dell'ora

Upon battery installation, the clock will automatically attempt to synchronize with the DCF-77 radio signal from Frankfurt, Germany. This process may take several minutes. Ensure the clock is placed in an area with good reception, away from electronic devices that may cause interference.

Place the clock on a stable, flat surface, such as a tabletop.
Avoid placing the clock near large metal objects or other electronic devices that could obstruct the radio signal.
The clock will automatically adjust for daylight saving time (summer/winter time) changes.

3. Istruzioni per l'uso

3.1 Leggere l'ora

The clock features an analogue display with large, easy-to-read numbers and luminous hands. In low light conditions, press the snooze/light button (typically located on top of the clock) to activate the backlight for approximately 5 seconds, illuminating the dial for better visibility.

3.2 Impostazione dell'allarme

Locate the alarm setting knob/switch on the back or side of the clock.
Rotate the alarm setting knob to move the alarm hand to your desired wake-up time.
Ensure the alarm ON/OFF switch (if present) is in the "ON" position.

The alarm signal is designed to increase in volume gradually, starting softly and becoming louder to ensure you wake up effectively.

3.3 Funzione posticipa

When the alarm sounds, press the large snooze/light button on the top of the clock. The alarm will pause and then repeat after approximately 5 minutes. You can typically press the snooze button multiple times.

3.4 Quiet Sweep Movement

This alarm clock is equipped with a quiet sweep movement. The second hand moves continuously rather than in distinct ticks, minimizing noise and providing a peaceful environment, especially in bedrooms.

4. Manutenzione

4.1 Sostituzione della batteria

It is recommended to replace the AA battery approximately once per year to ensure optimal performance and accurate timekeeping. Low battery power can affect the clock's accuracy and the alarm's functionality. Follow the battery installation steps in Section 2.1.

4.2 Pulizia

Per pulire l'orologio, strofinare delicatamente la superficie con un panno morbido, asciutto o leggermente damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or chemical sprays, as these can damage the clock's finish or internal components. Ensure no moisture enters the battery compartment or other openings.

5. Risoluzione Dei Problemi

Problema	Possibile causa	Soluzione
Clock does not display correct time or time is not set.	New battery not installed or battery is low. Poor reception of the DCF-77 radio signal. Clock is too far from the signal source (Frankfurt, Germany).	Installare una batteria AA nuova. Relocate the clock to a different position, preferably near a window and away from electronic interference. Allow up to 24 hours for the clock to receive and process the signal, especially after initial setup or battery change.
L'allarme non suona.	Alarm is not set or alarm switch is OFF. Battery is too low to power the alarm.	Verify the alarm time is set correctly and the alarm switch is ON. Sostituisci la batteria con una nuova batteria AA.
Backlight is dim or not working.	La batteria è scarica.	Sostituisci la batteria con una nuova batteria AA.
Second hand movement is inconsistent (e.g., slower uphill).	This is a characteristic of some sweep movements and generally does not affect time accuracy.	No action required unless time accuracy is affected. If accuracy is an issue, replace the battery.
