Maintenance
To maintain your Sonnet T-1949 alarm clock, wipe the exterior with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the finish. Ensure the unit is unplugged before cleaning. Keep the clock away from excessive moisture and direct sunlight.
If using the battery backup, check the CR2032 battery periodically and replace it as needed to ensure continuous timekeeping during power interruptions.
Troubleshooting
