1 Electrical connections
1.1 The main power
In the clock there is a cable fixation for the main power cable available. The power earth has to be
connected to the specially marked (PE) connection point.
There is a plug-in spring terminal available for the power line and the neutral wires. The wires must be
stripped 8 – 9 mm and can be inserted after pushing (opening) the terminal with operation tool.
Attention:
For all maintenance and cabling work, the clock has to be completely separated from
mains! Always use the same power phase with only one fuse for illumination and
movement (nom. 230 VAC).
Use the cable straps to fix the mains power cables for illumination and movement (pull relief).

2 Set clock to correct time
2.1 Self-setting clocks
BU 190t xxx, MLU 190t xxx:
No time settings needed, clock will set up automatically to current time.
Movements are set by factory to standard run mode (DIP switch for 12:00 position in OFF position).
If a clock does not run to correct time, set 12:00 position DIP switch to ON and check, if the hands are
stopping at 12:00 position exactly (if not, remove the clock hands and fix them exactly at 12:00 position).
Correct time and guaranteed time and power reserve, as well as precision of the clock can only be
guaranteed after 2-3 days of working.
For further information read the documentation of respective movements (see chapter 1.2).

3 Relacement of the LED illumination
3.1 Open clock
For all maintenance and cabling work, the clock has to be separated from
mains!
For safety reasons avoid to look directly into the LEDs.
Dial fixation flap
Fixation screws for glass mounting ring
1. Unscrew the 3 screws of the glass ring, pull of the glass ring with the glass and deposit it carefully.
2. Untighten and turn the dial fixation flaps. Carefully pull the dial together with the movement out from
clock housing und disconnect the electrical terminals from the clock movement.
3. Remove dial.

3.2 Exchange of LED illumination band
In case the LED illumination breaks down, the illumination band can be exchanged.
Step by step procedure:
1. Unplug the connector to the illumination.
2. Remove fixation screws oft he illumination band.
3. Insert new illumination band and fix it with the screws
4. Plug in the connector to the illumination.
3.3 Uhr schliessen
1. Connect the electrical terminal(s) to the movement (time signal, power).
2. Put the dial to the correct position.
3. Turn the dial fixation flaps and tighten all four screws.
4. Pull the glass ring with the glass carefully over the housing frame and fix the ring with the 3 screws.
Check, that the cables do not affect the clock illumination with shadows on the dials.
