Read Before Use

- Avoid using this device in strong magnetic and static environments as much as possible.
- If the device comes into contact with water or any other liquid, power it off immediately and wait for it to dry completely before turning it on again.
- Do not clean the device with any cleaning products containing chemicals, to avoid damage caused by corrosion and dampness. When cleaning is necessary, use a dry, soft cloth.

Clock Illumination
The clock face has a solar-powered coating that glows by absorbing surrounding light sources. For best results, place the clock near a light source (i.e. near a window or close to a lamp) for 5-7 hours during the day. This will allow for approximately 2 hours of illumination at night.
The clock’s glow intensity depends on the strength of the light source. The longer the clock is exposed to a light source, the better the illumination will be.
