Maintenance

Cleaning

To clean Dozy, gently wipe the surface with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn marks, a slightly damp cloth can be used, ensuring no moisture enters the device's ports or openings. Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or strong chemicals, as these may damage the finish or internal components.

Battery Care

Dozy is equipped with a rechargeable Lithium Ion battery. To prolong battery life, avoid fully discharging the battery frequently. Recharge the device when the battery indicator shows low power. If storing the device for an extended period, charge it to approximately 50% and recharge every few months to prevent deep discharge.

Troubleshooting

• Device Not Powering On: Ensure the device is fully charged. Connect it to a power source and allow it to charge for at least 30 minutes before attempting to power on again.
• Alarm Not Sounding/Stopping: Verify that the alarm is correctly set and activated. Check the volume level. If the alarm is active and unresponsive, try a soft reset by holding the power button for an extended period (e.g., 10-15 seconds) until the device restarts.
• Bluetooth Pairing Issues: Ensure Dozy is in pairing mode. Turn off and on Bluetooth on your external device. Move Dozy closer to the external device. Clear previous Bluetooth connections on both devices and try pairing again.
• Display Not Responding to Headband Tap: Ensure the device is powered on and not in a locked mode. Try gently tapping the headband in different spots.
• Poor FM Radio Reception: Reposition Dozy to improve signal reception. Ensure there are no large metallic objects nearby that could interfere with the signal.
