  Alarm Clock vs. Memory Clock Mode 

The clock has two display features: 
 
The alarm clock mode (icons on) displays the alarm icon, indoor temperature, Radio Controlled Icon 
and Time Zone in addition to the features displayed in the memory clock mode. 
 
The memory clock mode (icons off) simplifies the display, and only shows the day of week, time, and 
date.  This  makes  the  clock  easy  to  read  for  the  elderly  and  those  suffering  from  memory  loss.  The 
alarm and Radio Controlled Clock features continue to work. 
 
To switch between the alarm clock and memory clock modes, select the 

Icons On/Off 

Switch: 

- Slide to the 

ON 

position to activate all icons and indoor temperature reading (alarm clock mode).
