Automatic Fajr Alarm
This unique alarm feature allows you to set a wake-up time relative to the Fajr Azan.

Refer to the detailed user guide (included) for specific instructions on setting this alarm.
Daily Alarm
The daily alarm functions as a standard alarm, sounding at the same set time every day. This alarm can also be configured to not ring on weekends, providing flexibility for your schedule. Consult the user guide for detailed steps on setting and managing the daily alarm.
Qibla Direction and Temperature Display
The clock can display the Qibla direction (relative to North) on its digital screen, assisting users in determining the correct prayer direction. Additionally, the current ambient temperature is displayed in Celsius (C).
Maintenance
Battery Replacement
To ensure optimal performance and prevent loss of settings, it is recommended to change the 4 AA batteries approximately every 3 months. Avoid using Dura cell batteries; Energizer Alkaline batteries are recommended for best results. If using USB power, battery replacement frequency may decrease.
Cleaning
Wipe the clock's surface with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they may damage the finish or display. Keep the clock away from excessive moisture.
Troubleshooting
- Clock Not Functioning / Display Off: Check battery levels. Replace all 4 AA batteries with fresh Energizer Alkaline batteries. Ensure batteries are inserted correctly. If using USB power, verify the cable and power source are working.
- Incorrect Azan Times: Verify that the correct city and taqweem system are selected in the clock's settings. Ensure Daylight Saving Time (DST) is correctly enabled or disabled according to your local time.
- No Azan Sound: Check the "Azan Volume Switch" on the back of the clock to ensure it is not set to "OFF". Increase the volume level if necessary.
- Settings Lost After Battery Change: This can occur if batteries are completely depleted before replacement. It is crucial to replace batteries proactively (every 3 months) to retain settings. Re-enter your settings manually if this occurs.
