Setup
1. Power Connection
- Connect the provided power adapter to the DC input port on the back of the alarm clock.
- Plug the adapter into a standard 220 Volt electrical outlet.
- The alarm clock can also be powered by battery for flexibility, though mains power is recommended for continuous use.
2. Initial Time Setting
- Upon first power-up, the display will illuminate.
- Refer to the control buttons (usually located on the back or bottom) to set the current time. Typically, there are dedicated buttons for 'Time Set' and '+' / '-' to adjust hours and minutes.

Operating Instructions
1. Sunrise Simulation Alarm
- The sunrise simulation gradually brightens the light from 0% to 100% over a period of 0-60 minutes before your set alarm time. The light transitions from amber to warm orange.
- You can choose to wake up with light only, sound only, or a combination of both.
- The brightness of the sunrise simulation is adjustable, and the feature can be deactivated if not desired.

- To set an alarm, press the 'Alarm 1' or 'Alarm 2' button, then use the '+' / '-' buttons to adjust the time. Confirm your selection.
- When an alarm sounds, press the 'Snooze' button to pause the alarm for 9 minutes. The alarm will repeat after the snooze period.
