    Question

    How do I activate and configure the snooze (Zz) function?

    Answer

    To use the snooze (Zz) function on your Gingko Edge Light Alarm Clock, follow these steps when the alarm is sounding:

    • To Snooze: Simply shake the clock. This will pause the alarm for 5 minutes. The snooze icon will appear on the screen while in this mode.
    • Frequency: You can snooze the alarm as many times as you wish while it is beeping. However, please note that the alarm beeps for a total of 3 minutes; if not snoozed or turned off within that time, it will stop automatically.
    • To Turn Off for the Day: If you want to stop the alarm completely instead of snoozing, press any button or flip the clock over.

    Note: There is no separate configuration menu for snooze duration; it is preset to 5-minute intervals.

    Question

    Why does my alarm clock turn off when unplugged after charging for 5 hours, is there an ON button, and can the alarm beep sound be changed?

    Answer

    Based on the Gingko Edge Light Alarm Clock manual, here are the answers to your questions:

    • Powering On: This product is a "power activation" device. It does not have a traditional ON/OFF switch; instead, it is activated by its first charge. If the device turns off immediately when unplugged after 5 hours, it may not be holding a charge. Ensure you are using a 5V USB adapter (like a phone charger) and that the battery icon on the screen is not flashing.
    • Resetting: If the device is unresponsive when unplugged, you can try pressing the RESET button to return the clock to its default settings.
    • Alarm Sound: The manual does not mention an option to change the beep tone or volume. The beep sound is fixed and will last for 3 minutes unless snoozed or turned off.
    • Screen Light: Note that the screen light is programmed to turn on automatically only between 9 PM and 7 AM. If the screen is dark during the day while unplugged, it may simply be in its standard daytime mode. You can try pressing the + button to ensure the screen light hasn't been manually disabled.

    If the unit continues to shut down immediately upon being unplugged, the integrated 1200mAh battery may be faulty, and you should contact support@ging-ko.co.uk.
