Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Alarm light goes to full brightness immediately. | The sunrise simulation duration is set too long for the remaining time until the alarm, or the current time is already past the start of the simulation. | Ensure the alarm time is set sufficiently in the future to allow for the full sunrise simulation duration. For example, if the simulation is 30 minutes, set the alarm at least 30 minutes from the current time. |
| No sound from alarm. | Alarm volume is set to L00 or "OFF" is selected for the alarm sound. | Check alarm settings and increase volume or select a sound other than "OFF". |
| Display is too bright/dim or off. | Display brightness is set to an undesired level. | Press the DIMMER button to adjust the display brightness to your preference. |
| Device not powering on. | Loose power connection or faulty adapter. | Check that the USB cable is securely connected to both the clock and the power adapter/USB port. Try a different USB power adapter if available. |
