Waking to the Radio
The radio wake feature is only accessible when the alarm BEEP is programmed
OFF. If you would like to change this setting, push the (P) button until you see
“RADIOWAKE ON” or “RADIOWAKE OFF” on the display. The “#”
symbol will appear on the display when the feature is on. In this mode, the radio
station programmed to “P1” will come on at your chosen alarm time.
Waking up to a Flashing Light
If you would like to wake up to a flashing light, push the PROGRAM (P) button
until you see “FLASHING OFF” on the display. Push the (+) or (-) button until
it reads “FLASHING ON” and the “!” symbol appears on the display. In this
mode, the light will flash on and off when it reaches your preset alarm time.
Programming Sleep Options
Falling asleep to a Sundown
Press the PROGRAM (P) button until the display reads “SUNSET” followed by
a number. Press the (+) or (-) button, and the display alternates between several
choices: “SUNSET 15" (15 minute sundown), “SUNSET 30" (30 minutes; this
is the default), “SUNSET 45” (45 minutes), and “SUNSET 60" (60 minutes).
Falling Asleep to the Radio
The radio can fade out after you activate the alarm. Push the PROGRAM (P)
button until the display reads “RADIO SLP OFF”. Push the (+) or (-) button to
reach your choice. “RADIO SLP ON” will leave the radio on all night,
“RADIO SLP 15” will keep the radio on for 15 minutes, “RADIO SLP 30” for
30 minutes, etc, and “RADIO SLP AUTO” will turn the radio off a few
minutes after the light goes out in the sunset mode.
Falling Asleep with the Night Light On
This feature allows you to have the clock dim in the sundown mode, but to stop
dimming when it reaches approximately 5% intensity, for use as a Night Light.
Press the PROGRAM (P) button until the Display reads “NITELITE OFF” or
“NITELITE LO”, or “NITELITE HI”. Then press the (+) or (-) buttons and
the display will alternate between the three options.
Programming Other Options
Adjusting the Brightness of the Clock Display
Press the PROGRAM (P) button until the display reads “DISPLAY HI”, which
is the default setting. Press the (+) or (-) button, and the display changes to
“DISPLAY LO”, “DISPLAY MED”, or “DISPLAY AUTO”. In the
“DISPLAY AUTO” mode, the brightness of the display is automatically at a
high level during the day, but will switch to a lower level when you enable the
alarm at nighttime so it does not disturb you while sleeping. The display will
dim in this mode as the main light dims down when either the alarm has been set
and the ALARM (
☼
) button is up (on), or you have activated the sundown
mode. If you wish to dim the display without activating the alarm for the
following morning, press both the (+) and (-) buttons simultaneously for 2
seconds. This is known as “FRIDAY NIGHT MODE” because it works well
for Friday nights when one does not want to wake up early on Saturday
morning.
Changing to a 12 or 24 Hour Display
The clock is preset to a 12-hour display. To change to a 24-hour display, make
sure the ALARM button (
☼
) is down (off). Press the PROGRAM (P) button
until the display reads “24 HOUR” and “12 HOUR”. Then press the (+) or (-)
button to choose either option. The “PM” symbol on the clock display is only
present in the 12-hour mode.
Activating the Security Mode
This mode is useful when you are away on vacation, or your house is empty, and
you wish to give the appearance that someone is there. To turn on the Security
Mode, press the PROGRAM (P) button until the display reads “SECURITY
OFF”. Press the (+) or (-) button and the display will switch to “SECURITY
ON” indicating that the security mode is activated. During the security mode,
the clock will come on and off randomly between 4 p.m. and 11 p.m. When this
function is set, and you’ve exited the programming mode, the main display will
read “SECURITY”. To exit the security mode upon your return, push any
button and “SECURITY” will no longer be displayed.
Setting the Date
Push the program button until the display reads “SHOW NO DATE”. In this
default mode, the bottom part of the display will normally be blank. If you wish
to show the date on the display, push the plus or minus button until the display
reads “SHOW DATE” then push the PROGRAM (P) button to set the day of
the week, year, month, and day of the month. Push the PROGRAM (P) button
once more to display the date as “SHOW DATE” which shows month and date
(e.g., “January 27”) or “DAY AND DATE” (e.g., “Tues, Jan 27”).
