3.4 Sound Activation Display

The clock has a sound-activated display mode. In this mode, the display will turn off after a short period of inactivity to conserve power. To activate the display, simply make a sound (e.g., clap your hands, tap the clock) or touch the clock. To enable or disable sound activation, refer to the specific instructions in your product's packaging, as this feature may be toggled via a combination of buttons or a dedicated switch not explicitly detailed here.

3.5 Indoor Temperature Display

The clock may cycle between time and indoor temperature display. This is typically an automatic function. If the temperature is not displayed, ensure the clock is in its normal operating mode and not in a setting menu.

4. Maintenance

4.1 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 can damage the finish and electronic components. Avoid getting moisture into the clock's openings.

4.2 Battery Replacement

If using battery power, replace the 3 x AAA batteries when the display dims significantly or stops functioning. Always replace all three batteries at the same time with new ones. Dispose of old batteries responsibly according to local regulations.
