This AMS wall clock model 5266-1 is made of glass, brass, walnut and is 66 cm high. All clocks are equipped with a quartz movement and function on a battery. If your new clock is equipped with a radio-controlled timepiece, it will automatically be set on time after inserting a battery. The change from summer to winter time also takes place automatically. Bathroom clocks are waterproof and can be attached to the wall with either suction cups or a screw, whichever is preferable. Most bathroom clocks are radio controlled. You have a two-year warranty on the timepiece.
Instructions for the various types of clocks
If after a while the clock starts spinning endlessly, the battery is almost empty in almost all cases. After changing the battery, the clock will function normally again. A clock with a pendulum also functions without the pendulum. The garland is only decorative and has no further function. If the hands of the clock start spinning endlessly, the battery is probably almost empty. If the hands of the clock still rotate after inserting the new battery, it is useful to reset the clock. You do this by inserting the battery the other way around for a few seconds (plus to minus) and then reinserting it correctly in the clock (plus to plus).
If your new clock is radio controlled, it makes sense to follow the instructions below. If the clock is fitted with a new battery, the timepiece will go to the 12-hour, 4-hour or 8-hour position and wait in that position for the radio signal from the atomic clock, which can sometimes take a while. Sometimes the signal cannot reach the clock (Faraday cage) and it makes sense to place the clock near a window for a while. The current radio-controlled clocks are set up for summer and winter time and will adjust this time themselves. In practice, this can take up to a day before the time is changed.
