USING THE ALARM

Press MODE until ALARM appears.

In regular Alarm mode (not Set mode), press START/STOP to turn Alarm feature on and off. Display will show “ON” or “OFF” to right of Alarm minutes. If Alarm is “ON”, it will generate a melody when Time of Day is the same as the Alarm time. As a reminder, when the Alarm is ON, an Alarm clock symbol will appear to the left of the date while in Time of Day.

Alarm melody will sound for 20 seconds, but can be stopped by pressing any button. If it is allowed to sound for the full 20 seconds, a backup alarm will automatically sound after 5 more minutes, much like a snooze feature.
