• To set the time, gently turn the minute hand (the longer hand) clockwise until the correct time is displayed. Do not turn the hour hand directly.
• Lasciare che l'orologio funzioni per qualche minuto per garantirne il corretto funzionamento.

4. Appendere l'orologio

The Bulova Litchfield clock is designed for wall mounting.

• Choose a sturdy wall location, away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, or high humidity.
• Use appropriate wall anchors and screws (not included) suitable for the weight of the clock and your wall type.
• Ensure the clock is level once mounted to allow the pendulum to swing freely and accurately.

Istruzioni per l'uso

1. Harmonic Chime Selection

Your clock features a Harmonic Triple Chime movement with multiple options:

• Westminster Chime: Plays the traditional Westminster melody. You can select either an hourly chime or a 4/4 option (chimes every quarter hour).
• Ave Maria Chime: Plays the Ave Maria melody hourly.
• Simple Hour Strike: Strikes the hour without a melody.

Refer to the controls located on the back of the clock or inside the case to select your desired chime melody and frequency.

2. Controllo del volume

The clock is equipped with an adjustable volume control. This allows you to set the chime volume to your preference. The control is typically a dial or slider located near the chime selection switch.

3. Automatic Night Shut-off

To ensure quiet during nighttime hours, the clock includes an automatic night shut-off feature. When activated, this feature silences the chimes between approximately 10:00 PM and 5:45 AM. Consult the controls on the clock for activation and deactivation of this feature.

Manutenzione

1. Pulizia

• Wood Case: Dust the wood case with a soft, dry cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a furniture polish suitable for cherry wood, applied sparingly to a cloth, not directly to the clock.
• Bicchiere: Clean the glass with a non-ammonia glass cleaner applied to a soft cloth. Do not spray cleaner directly onto the glass to avoid liquid seeping into the clock mechanism.
• Componenti in metallo: Gently wipe metal parts (dial, pendulum, weights) with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or polishes that could damage the finish.

2. Sostituzione della batteria

Replace all batteries annually or when the clock stops keeping accurate time or the chimes weaken/stop. Always replace all batteries at the same time with new, high-quality alkaline batteries.

3. Assistenza generale

• Do not expose the clock to extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, or high humidity, as this can damage the wood finish and internal components.
• Avoid placing the clock near strong magnetic fields, which can affect timekeeping accuracy.
• Ensure the clock remains level to maintain proper pendulum swing.
