3. Setup
3.1 Power Connection
The Meloya Digital Alarm Clock is a plug-in device and requires continuous power via the included USB power cable and adapter. The internal CR2032 battery (included) serves only as a backup for memory retention during power outages, not for primary operation.
- Locate the hidden power interface (DC5V/1A) on the back of the clock.
- Connect the USB power cable to the clock and then plug the USB adapter into a standard wall outlet.
- Ensure the CR2032 backup battery is correctly installed in its compartment for memory function.

- For Ceramic Tile Walls: Use the two included adhesive hooks. Clean the wall surface thoroughly before applying the hooks to ensure strong adhesion.
