5 times and the display reads DISPLAY AUTO. Press the + or – buttons to
change between DISPLAY AUTO and DISPLAY HIGH. In DISPLAY
AUTO mode, the brightness of the display is automatically on at a high level,
but will switch to a lower level at nighttime so it does not disturb your sleep.
The display will dim as the light fades down when either the alarm has been
activated and the ALARM button is OUT (on), or you have activated the sunset
mode, both indicating that you are preparing to go to sleep. When DISPLAY
HIGH is selected, the display will always remain in the bright mode.
SUNRISE WAKE-UP SEQUENCE
The light will gradually begin to illuminate before your set wake-up time. Once
the light has fully illuminated, and the SunRise wake-up time has been reached,
the audible alarm will sound. The audible alarm begins with a quiet beep, and
gradually intensifies to full volume over 30 seconds.
Setting the Speed of the SunRise Wake-Up: The SunRise Clock is preset for a
30-minute wake-up sequence, i.e., the light will reach full brightness gradually
over 30 minutes. If you wish to change the SunRise time, you can choose
between 15, 30, 45, and 60 minutes. Press the PROGRAM button 6 times until
the display reads FADEUP followed by a number. Press the + or – button to
alternate between FADEUP DEMO (see “Additional Features”), FADEUP 30
(a 30 minute sunrise is the default), FADEUP 45 (45 minutes), FADEUP 60
(60 minutes), and FADEUP 15 (15 minutes).
SUNSET SLEEP SEQUENCE
Activating the Sunset Sequence: Manually turn the light on to the intensity
from which you wish the sunset to start. If the Alarm button is pushed IN (off)
push it again so that it is OUT (on). This will begin the SUNSET SEQUENCE,
and the light will slowly fade out like an actual sunset. (NOTE: If you wish to
activate “FRIDAY NIGHT MODE” which refers to activating the sunset
without activating the sunrise alarm for the following morning, make sure the
ALARM button is IN (off) and press both the + and - buttons simultaneously to
begin the sunset.
Setting the Sunset Speed: Press the PROGRAM button 7 times until the
display reads FADEDOWN followed by a number. Press the + or – button to
alternate between FADEDOWN15 (15 minute sunset), FADEDOWN30 (30
minutes is the default), FADEDOWN45 (45 minutes), and FADEDOWN60
(60 minutes).
Programming Sleep Sounds: The clock can play sounds that are designed to
help you relax and fall sleep quickly or drown out noises that might wake you
(e.g., street traffic). To activate the Sleep Sound Mode, press the PROGRAM
button 8 times so the display reads “SOUND OFF”. From here, you can use the
+ or - button to switch to “SOUND PERM” or “SOUND AUTO”. With the
“Sound Perm” option, whenever you turn the ALARM ON, the Sleep Sound of
your choice will stay on at a consistent volume. With “Sound Auto” the Sound
will gradually become quieter as the sundown light fades down, finally falling
silent just as the light goes out. The symbol “#” will illuminate to indicate the
sleep sound feature is enabled. To turn the Sleep Sound off quickly press the
ALARM button IN (off) and then immediately OUT (on).
Selecting Which Sleep Sound to Use: Press the PROGRAM button 9 times or
until you reach the correct menu. Once you are there, you can use the + or -
button to cycle through the options: “OCEAN WAVES”, “WHITE NOISE”,
“GENTLE BROOK” and other relaxing sound options.
Adjusting the Volume Level of the Sleep Sound: Press the PROGRAM button
10 times or until you see “VOLUME 7” which is the default volume level.
From this point, you can use the + and - buttons to adjust this level from 1 to 16
to make the sound louder or softer. This volume setting determines how loud
the Sleep Sound will be when the it is activated. Note that Sleep Sounds will be
louder if the clock is sitting on a hard surface close to you and softer on a soft
material further away from you.
READING LAMP
Using the Adjustable Reading Light: Again, make sure the ALARM (A)
button is pressed IN (off), then press the + button to turn on the lamp and to
increase brightness. To reduce the light level or turn it off, press the - button.
Holding in either button adjusts the light level rapidly.
