1. Introduction
Thank you for your purchase of the Ambient Weather TIDECLOCK-23 4.5" Nautical Brass Quartz
Tide Clock. The following is a guide for preparation, care and operation of your marine weather
instrument.
Note: Some of the images are generic and may not match your exact model.
2. Care and Cleaning
Avoid use of harsh household cleaners and coarse paper towels, which can scratch the bezel or lens.
Fingerprints and dirt may be removed the lenses and bezels with a soft cloth lightly dampened with a
mixture of water and mild dishwashing liquid. Be sure to dry the lens and bezel with a soft cloth
after cleaning.
3. Battery and Installation
1. The tide mechanism is on the back of the unit. Insert one AAbattery, as shown in Figure 1.
Figure 1
2. Fix the mounting plaque to a wall with a wall mounting hook or nail.
4. Setting the Tide Clock
To set the tide, adjust the tide adjustment wheel in the clockwise direction, as shown in XFigure 1.
At the exact high or low tide condition (consult an official tide table, the internet or local authorities),
set the tide pointer to either the high or low tide setting.
NOTE: It is normal for the tide hand to have some “play”. This allows for proper rotation of the hand.
You may have to iterate to set properly.
5. Tide Clock Limitations
Tide fluctuations (high and low tide) vary from one location to another. The tide hand therefore will
indicate high and low tide at your specific location only. High and low tides have a fluctuation rhythm

between 12 and 13 hours. Therefore, the tide indicator will show average values only, which for
general requirements will be sufficient.
Other variables such as wind, atmospheric pressure, the relative position of the moon, and the
elliptical pattern of the sun will affect the tide slightly. These variables least affect the tide at the time
of the full moon. For this reason, the time of the full moon and to a lesser extent, the new moon are
generally the best times to set your tide clock. Even though you may experience some slight variations
during the days to come, you will find that they will “average out” and by the time of the next full
moon, your tide clock will accurately depict the correct time of flood and ebb stages.

This tide schedule is geared to tides for the east coast of North America. They will not accurately
depict tides for the west coast. Referencing XFigure 3Xbelow, the areas marked provide accurate tide
fluctuations.
