SWITCHING OFF THE ALARM  
MAINTENANCE  
There are three ways of switching off the alarm. Unless you cancel the alarm  
completely, the 24 hour alarm reset option will be automatically selected after  
59 minutes, from the time your alarm time first goes off.  
If you do not intend to use the set for a long time, withdraw the power plug  
from the wall outlet. In addition to this, it is advisable to remove the battery  
from the clock radio. This will prevent any danger of leakage and the clock  
radio will not be damaged.  
Do not expose the set to humidity, rain, sand or excessive heat caused by  
heating equipment or direct sunlight.  
To clean the set, use a soft, slightly dampened chamois leather. Do not use  
any cleaning agents containing alcohol, ammonia, benzene or abrasives as  
these may harm the housing.

same alarm setting for the following day:  
Press SET TIME/ALARM OFF during the alarm call.
