Auto-Dimming Option
The clock has two dimmers: for evenings and nights. It can automatically adjust the brightness of the
tubes in relation to the light in the room using a built-in light sensor. Auto-dimming feature can extend
the lifespan of the tubes by 10-15 times.
On the menu pages 6, 7 you can setup the dimmer settings for evenings. On the menu pages 8, 9 you
can set the dimmer settings for nights.
For each dimmer you can setup the lighting level when you want the clock to reduce its brightness,
and what brightness should be than.
The ambient light is coming to the clock from its underneath semi-translucent cover. Please make sure
there are no objects around blocking the light.
