4. Setup

4.1 Charging the Timer

Before first use, or when the battery is low, charge the timer using the provided Type-C cable.

1. Connect the Type-C end of the cable to the charging port on the timer.
2. Connect the USB-A end of the cable to a standard USB power adapter (not included) or a computer USB port.
3. The LED screen may indicate charging status. A full charge provides up to 1200 minutes of operation time.

4.2 Initial Power On

The timer is designed for immediate use. It features a gravity sensor chip, meaning it powers on and begins timing as soon as a numbered side is facing upwards. No manual power button is typically required for initial activation.

5. Operating the Timer

The Pepisky Cube Timer offers intuitive operation through its gravity sensing technology and various modes.

5.1 Preset Countdown (Gravity Sensing Mode)

The timer comes with preset countdowns for 5, 10, 30, and 60 minutes. To activate a preset:

1. Identify the desired time (e.g., "5 MIN", "10 MIN", "30 MIN", "60 MIN") printed on one of the timer's faces.
2. Place the timer on a flat surface with the desired time facing directly upwards. The timer will automatically begin counting down from that preset time.
3. The LED screen will display the remaining time.

Figure 4: Activating a preset timer. This image demonstrates how to activate a preset countdown by placing the desired time value face-up.

5.2 Custom Countdown / Count-Up (Manual Mode)

The timer also supports custom countdowns and a count-up function. The image "Two-speed mode Gravity sensing/manual mode" suggests a way to switch to manual mode, likely by placing the timer on a side without a preset number, or a specific button press.

• To set a custom countdown: Place the timer on the side that displays "00 00" or a blank face. Use the '+' and '-' buttons (if present, implied by "Plus/minus" icon) to adjust the desired time. Once set, flip the timer to start the countdown.
• To use as a count-up timer: Place the timer on the side that displays "00 00" or a blank face. It will start counting up from zero.

5.3 Pause and Resume

To pause a running timer, gently flip the timer to a neutral side (e.g., the side with the charging port or a blank face) or press a designated pause button if available. To resume, flip it back to the active timing face or press the resume button.

5.4 Alarm Settings (Mute, Vibrate, Sound)

The timer offers multiple alarm levels to suit different environments:

• Mute: For silent operation, ideal for libraries or quiet offices.
• Vibrate: Provides a discreet alert without sound.
• Quiet Sound: A softer audible alarm (70~80dB).
• Loud Sound: A strong audible alarm (90~100dB).

To switch between alarm modes, locate the dedicated button(s) on the timer (often indicated by a speaker icon or similar) and press to cycle through the options.

5.5 Clearing the Display

To clear the current time displayed on the screen and reset it to zero, gently flip the timer to the side designated for clearing the value. This is often indicated by a specific icon or a blank face that resets the timer.

6. Maintenance

Proper care will ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Pepisky Cube Timer.

• Cleaning: Wipe the timer with a soft, dry, or slightly damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or immerse the device in water.
• Storage: Store the timer in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
• Handling: Avoid dropping the timer or subjecting it to strong impacts, as this may damage the internal components, including the gravity sensor.
• Battery Care: For long-term storage, it is recommended to charge the timer to about 50% every few months to preserve battery health.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your Pepisky Cube Timer, please refer to the following common solutions:

• Timer not responding/displaying:
  • Ensure the timer is sufficiently charged. Connect it to a power source using the Type-C cable.
  • Try flipping the timer to different numbered faces to activate the gravity sensor.

  • Check the alarm settings. You may have set it to "Mute". Cycle through the alarm modes to select "Vibrate", "Quiet Sound", or "Loud Sound".

• Inaccurate timing:
  • Ensure the timer is placed on a stable, flat surface when in use.
