How to Turn Off or Snooze the Alarm

Once an alarm is set and starts to ring, it can be snoozed by tapping the large central knob/button on the top of the unit (circled in yellow in the image below). If this button is held for more than 2 seconds it will turn off the alarm.

The duration of the snooze cannot be changed and is fixed to 9 minutes. The alarm will continue to ring for 3 minutes and if not turned off or snoozed, it will automatically snooze after this time. It will automatically snooze for a maximum of 3 times, but if the snooze button is used before this occurs, the alarm can be snoozed an unlimited number of times.

Once snoozed, the display shows the time that the alarm will next ring.

To keep the radio playing after the alarm is turned off, press one of the 3 preset buttons or the DAB/FM button as desired.
