6. Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your alarm clock, please refer to the following common problems and solutions:

|---|---|---|
| Display is off or flickering. | No power connection or loose cable. | Ensure the power adapter is securely plugged into the clock and the wall outlet. Check if the outlet is working. |
| Alarm does not sound. | Alarm is not activated or volume is too low. | Check if the alarm icon (AL1/AL2) is lit on the display. Adjust the alarm volume to a higher level (U01-U05). |
