- Connect the provided USB cable to the alarm clock's power input port.

- The clock will power on and display the default time.
3.2 Placement
Place the alarm clock on a stable, flat surface. For optimal projection, position it where the projected time can be clearly seen on a wall or ceiling, typically 3 to 5 meters away. The projection arm can be rotated 180° to adjust the projection angle.
4. Operating Instructions
4.1 Setting Time and Date
Refer to the included instruction manual for specific button functions to set the current time and date. Typically, there are dedicated buttons (e.g., 'MODE', 'SET', 'UP', 'DOWN') for navigating and adjusting settings.
4.2 Setting the Alarm
- Press the 'ALARM' or 'MODE' button until the alarm setting mode is activated.
- Use the 'UP'/'DOWN' buttons to adjust the desired alarm time.
- Confirm the alarm setting, usually by pressing 'ALARM' or 'SET' again.
- Ensure the alarm is activated (an alarm icon typically appears on the display).
4.3 Using the Snooze Function

When the alarm sounds, lightly press the 'SNZ' (Snooze) button on the top of the clock. This will temporarily silence the alarm. The default snooze duration is 5 minutes, but it can be adjusted between 5 and 60 minutes in the settings.
4.4 Adjusting Display and Projection Brightness
- Screen Brightness: The main screen display has 4 adjustable brightness levels. Use the designated brightness button (often labeled 'BRIGHTNESS' or integrated with 'UP'/'DOWN' buttons) to cycle through the levels.
- Projection Brightness: The time projection has 3 adjustable brightness levels. Use the designated projection brightness button (often labeled 'PROJECT' or similar) to adjust.
- Night Mode: The clock features a Night Mode that automatically reduces the screen brightness during nighttime hours for comfortable viewing. This setting can usually be enabled or disabled in the clock's menu.
4.5 Using the Time Projection
The projection arm can be rotated 180° to direct the time display onto your desired surface (wall or ceiling). The projection is high-definition and effective at distances of 3 to 5 meters. Adjust the projection brightness as needed for clarity.
4.6 Mirror Function
The clock's mirrored screen can be used as a convenient makeup mirror, allowing you to check the time while getting ready.
5. Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your alarm clock, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wipe the clock's surface and screen with a soft, dry, or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, solvents, or chemical sprays, as these can damage the finish and display.
- Dust: Regularly dust the projection lens to maintain clear projection quality.
- Storage: If storing the clock for an extended period, disconnect it from power and keep it in a cool, dry place.
- Avoid Water: This device is not waterproof. Keep it away from water and high humidity.
