How to clean the alarm clock radio?

Always unplug the device before cleaning. Use a soft, dry cloth. Never use liquid or abrasive cleaning products to avoid damaging the casing.

Why does the alarm not go off?

Check that the function switch (1) is set to AUTO or BUZZ and that the alarm time is set correctly. Make sure the volume is not at minimum if using the radio. If the backup battery is discharged, replace it.

How to improve FM reception?

Fully unfold the floating antenna at the back of the device and orient it for better reception. Avoid placing the device near metal obstacles.

Does the display stay on in standby?

Yes, the LED display shows the time continuously when the device is plugged into the mains. In case of a power outage with backup battery, the display turns off to save battery.

What are the important safety precautions?

Use only on 230V. Never expose to water or excessive humidity. Do not open the casing. If the device falls into water, unplug immediately. For any repairs, contact Kompernaß after-sales service.

How to replace the backup battery?

Open the battery compartment (13) located at the back or underside of the device. Replace the 9V battery with a new one once a year. The battery only powers the clock and settings, not the radio or display.
