Voice Memo Recording and Playback
Your unit includes a handy voice memo-recording
feature that allows you to record a single message up
to 15 seconds in length.
To Record a Memo
1. Press and hold down the MEM button.
2. Upon hearing a beep, speak towards the front of the
unit from about 12”/30cm away.
3. Recording will start when the display shows REC
MEMO 15sec and starts counting down in one second
increments from 15 seconds towards 0, thereby
indicating how long your message is and how much
time you have left.
4. When you are finished recording your message,
release the MEM button and message recording will
stop. The unit will automatically stop recording when
15 seconds has been reached.
To Playback a Memo
Select it as the playback sound (#20 Voice Memo), or
as your HOME or TRAVEL alarm sound.
Note: You can only record one message for playback.
Sound #20 (Voice Memo) will not show up on the
display as an available playback sound until you have
recorded a voice memo message.
Volume Control
To select sound playback volume, rotate the VOLUME
CONTROL dial.
30, 60, or 90 Minute Timer
Your unit has 4 timer options: 30, 60, 90 minutes
or Continuous playback. On the “30”, “60” and “90”
minute timer positions, the sound gradually fades
away during the last 15 minutes before the unit turns
itself off.
To select the length of time you want your sound to be
played, follow these steps:
1. Press and hold the SOUND ON/OFF button for 2
seconds. The unit will beep and show you the status of
the timer on the display: Timer Off, Timer 30min, Timer
60min, or Timer 90min.
2. Press either the UP (+) or DOWN (–) buttons to choose
your desired timer length.
3. After reaching your desired timer length, press the
SOUND ON/OFF button again and your chosen timer
selection will be visible on the clock display to the right
of the time.
Note: If your alarm is turned ON and you listen to
nature sounds in the continuous mode, your unit will
automatically turn your selected nature sound “Off”
when the beep alarm sounds. If you had selected a
nature sound alarm sound different from the one you
listen to in continuous mode, as a wake-up alarm sound,
your unit will turn “Off” the continuously played sound
and play the alarm sound.
Snooze
Your unit includes a 15 minute “snooze” feature. You
may activate the SNOOZE cycle by pressing the SNOOZE/
LIGHT button once while the alarm is sounding. The
alarm will stop immediately, “snooze” for 15 minutes,
and then turn on again. This cycle is repeated 2 times
before the alarm turns off automatically.
The display will conveniently show you how much time
remains in the snooze cycle by counting down the
snooze cycle starting with “Snooze 15min”.
Back Lighting
When your unit is powered by 4 “AA” batteries, pressing
the SNOOZE/LIGHT button once will activate the back
lighting on the clock. Once activated, the backlight will
stay lit for 5 seconds.
When your unit is AC powered (i.e. plugged into a wall
outlet), the backlight will remain on, but at a lower
brightness level, so you can see the time in the dark but
not be disrupted by light that is too bright. When the
SNOOZE/LIGHT button is pressed, the brightness level
will return to normal brightness for 5 seconds, and then
return to the lower brightness level.
When an alarm sounds, the back lighting will activate
for 60 seconds when the unit is battery powered, or get
brighter for 60 seconds if AC powered.
