2. Rotate the knob in the direction indicated (usually counter-clockwise) to move the hour and minute hands to the current time.

Operating Instructions

Setting the Alarm

1. Locate the alarm setting knob on the back of the clock.

Activating/Deactivating the Alarm

• To activate the alarm, slide the alarm ON/OFF switch (often a bar on the top of the clock) to the "ON" position. A visual indicator (e.g., a red bar) may appear.
• To deactivate the alarm, slide the alarm ON/OFF switch to the "OFF" position.

Snooze Function and Light

• When the alarm sounds, press the large button on the top of the clock to activate the snooze function. The alarm will temporarily stop and sound again after a few minutes.

Maintenance

Cleaning

To clean the clock, gently wipe the surface with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or chemical sprays, as these may damage the clock's finish or internal components.

Battery Replacement

Replace the AA battery annually or when the clock's timekeeping becomes inaccurate, the alarm weakens, or the light dims. Follow the battery installation steps outlined in the "Setup" section.
