Operating Instructions

1. Sleep Training Function (Color Indicators)

The core function of Sam the Sheep is its visual sleep training system, using three distinct colors:

• Red Light: Indicates it's time to sleep. Sam's eyes are closed.
• Orange Light: Appears 30 minutes before the set wake-up time. Sam's eyes remain closed, and stars on the display gradually disappear, counting down the remaining time. This signals to your child that wake-up time is approaching, but they should remain in bed.
• Green Light: Indicates it's okay to wake up. Sam's eyes are open.

2. Night Light Function

Sam the Sheep can also function as a night light. The brightness of the display is adjustable (4 levels). You can set the night light to stay on throughout the night or to automatically turn off after a set period.

• To adjust brightness: Use the dedicated brightness control buttons (refer to the physical device for button locations).
• To activate/deactivate auto-off: Consult the full instruction manual for specific button sequences.

• To activate/deactivate the sound alarm: Use the alarm toggle button.
• To adjust alarm volume: There are 4 adjustable volume levels. Use the volume control buttons.
• The alarm will sound at the set wake-up time (when the display turns green).

4. Display Modes
