4.1 Hourly Chime (Cuckoo Sound)
The NEXTIME Twitter Cuckoo Wall Clock features an hourly chirping sound, where a bird emerges from its house to announce the hour. This mechanism is designed to operate silently between 10:00 PM and 7:00 AM to prevent disturbance during sleep.

4.2 Disabling the Chime
The clock offers options to manage the hourlund klingel:
- Nighttime Silence: The chime is automatically disabled between 10:00 PM and 7:00 AM. No manual adjustment is needed for this feature.
- Permanent Silence: To permanently disable the chirping sound, locate the ON/OFF switch on the back of the clock (refer to Image 2). Slide the switch to the "OFF" position.
4.3 Silent Motion
The clock features a silent movement mechanism, meaning there is no audible ticking sound during its operation, only the hourly chime (if enabled).
5. Wartung
- Reinigung: Wipe the clock surface with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these may damage the finish.
