Maintenance

To clean the clock, use a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents. Keep the device away from extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, and high humidity to ensure longevity.

Troubleshooting

  • Display is blank during power outage: The built-in CR2032 battery backup only saves settings. The display will go blank and alarms will not sound during a power outage. Time and settings will be restored once power returns.
  • Projection is blurry or upside down: Adjust the focus by rotating the projector lens. If the time is upside down, long press the projection button to flip the image 180 degrees.
  • Poor FM radio reception: Ensure the FM antenna is fully unraveled and positioned for best signal. Try repositioning the clock.
  • Display too bright/dim: Use the ribbed thumbwheel on the back to adjust the brightness from 0-100%.
  • Clock reverts to military time: Short press the 'Clock' button to toggle between 12-hour and 24-hour formats.
