7. Troubleshooting
- Clock not turning on: Ensure batteries are inserted correctly with proper polarity and are not depleted. Replace with fresh AAA batteries if necessary.
- Alarm not sounding: Check if the alarm is activated (alarm icon visible on display). Ensure the alarm time is set correctly. Verify alarm volume is not set to the lowest level or muted.
- Backlight not working: For on-demand backlight, ensure you are pressing the 'SNOOZE/LIGHT' button. For smart night light, ensure the 'SENSOR' button on the back is enabled and the ambient light is sufficiently dark.
- Incorrect time/date: Re-enter time and date settings as per Section 6.1.
- Temperature reading seems inaccurate: Ensure the clock is placed in a location away from direct sunlight, heat sources, or drafts, which can affect sensor readings.

- Battery Life: To prolong battery life, consider using high-quality alkaline AAA batteries.
- Alarm Customization: The clock features a Weekend Mode (Mon-Fri alarm only). It does not support setting alarms for specific, non-consecutive days (e.g., Sunday through Thursday). For such custom schedules, you would need to manually activate/deactivate the alarm daily.
- Portability: Its battery-powered design makes it highly portable. Remember to pack extra batteries for extended travel.
