FAQs
What is the difference between the Anko Alarm Clock Radio and the Anko Alarm Clock Radio with Bluetooth?
The Anko Alarm Clock Radio with Bluetooth has the ability to connect to your smartphone via Bluetooth.
How do i set up the alarm on my Anko Alarm Clock Radio?
A: To set up your alarm, you will need to press the “Alarm” button on the top of your clock radio. You will then be prompted to set your time and date. Once this is done, you will be able to set up your alarm.
How do i set up my sleep timer?
A: To set up your sleep timer, you will need to press the “Sleep” button on the top of your clock radio. You will then be prompted to set how long you want it to run for (1-60 minutes). Once this is done, you will be able to use it.
What does each light mean?
A: The light next to each button indicates which function is currently active. For example, if the light next to “Alarm” is lit, then that means that the alarm is currently active. If no lights are lit, then none of the functions are active at that time.
What does each sound mean?
A: Each sound that comes from your clock radio has a specific meaning. For example, when you hear a bell sound, it means that an alarm has been triggered or snoozed and needs attention. When you hear a beeping sound, it means that there is a problem with one of your settings or functions (e.g., if you hear a beeping sound when trying to turn off your alarm). If you have any questions about what each sound means, please refer back to this manual or contact us directly at.
