Operating Instructions

1. Setting Alarms (Alarm 1 & Alarm 2):

Your Buffbee alarm clock supports two independent alarms.

1. Press and hold the Alarm 1 Set button. The alarm hour digits will flash.
2. Use the +/- buttons to adjust the alarm hour.
3. Press Alarm 1 Set again to confirm the hour and move to minute adjustment.
4. Use the +/- buttons to adjust the alarm minutes.
5. Press Alarm 1 Set one more time to save the alarm time.
6. To select the alarm sound, press the Alarm 1 Set button repeatedly after setting the time until your desired sound is displayed (e.g., Bird Chirping, Ocean, Brook, Wind Chimes, Beep, Whistle).
7. To activate/deactivate Alarm 1, briefly press the Alarm 1 Set button. An indicator (e.g., "AL1") will appear/disappear on the display.
8. Repeat the process for Alarm 2 Set button to configure the second alarm.

2. Snooze Function:

When an alarm sounds, press the large Snooze button on top of the clock. The alarm will pause for 9 minutes and then sound again. You can repeat this process multiple times.

3. Stopping an Alarm:

To turn off a sounding alarm completely, press the corresponding Alarm 1 Set or Alarm 2 Set button on the back of the clock. The alarm will be deactivated until the next set time.

4. Adjusting Alarm Volume:

While an alarm is sounding, or in alarm setting mode, use the Volume +/- buttons to adjust the alarm loudness. The volume can be set between 30dB and 110dB.

5. Display Brightness Control:

• Smart Auto Dimming: The built-in smart light sensor automatically adjusts the display brightness based on ambient light conditions. This ensures the display is bright enough during the day and dims to a comfortable level in the dark for undisturbed sleep.
• Manual Dimming: If you prefer a fixed brightness, you can typically override the auto-dimming feature. Refer to the specific button (e.g., a dedicated "Dimmer" button or a long press on a specific button) to cycle through brightness levels or disable auto-dimming.

Maintenance

• Cleaning: Wipe the clock surface with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Battery Replacement: If using backup batteries, replace them annually or when the display shows signs of dimming during power outages. Ensure correct polarity when inserting new batteries.
• Storage: If storing the clock for an extended period, remove the backup batteries to prevent leakage.
