The WakeAssure+ Alarm Clock is a versatile timekeeping and awakening device designed to provide multiple alarm modes and user-friendly controls. It offers a range of features to ensure effective awakening, including sound, a bedshaker, and a lighted snooze button, catering to various preferences and needs. The device is manufactured by Clarity Products LLC, a company committed to producing reliable and functional products.

Function Description

The primary function of the WakeAssure+ Alarm Clock is to display the current time and to provide an alarm to awaken users. It features a clear digital display that shows the time, along with indicators for AM and PM. The alarm clock is equipped with a variety of alarm modes, allowing users to customize their awakening experience based on their specific requirements. These modes include combinations of sound, a bedshaker, and a flashing light, ensuring that even individuals with hearing impairments can be effectively alerted.

The device incorporates intuitive controls for setting the time and alarm. Users can easily adjust the hour and minute settings for both the clock and the alarm using dedicated buttons. A "TEST KEY" is provided to check the selected alarm mode, allowing users to confirm their settings before relying on the alarm. The snooze function offers a temporary reprieve from the alarm, with the option to re-alarm multiple times. For those who wish to completely turn off the alarm, a longer press of the snooze button is available.

Usage Features

The WakeAssure+ Alarm Clock is designed with several usage features to enhance convenience and effectiveness:

Time and Alarm Setting:
- To set the time, users press and hold the "SET CLOCK" key. The "HOUR" key can then be pressed repeatedly to increment the hour, or held down for faster adjustment. The same process applies to the "MINUTE" key.
- Setting the alarm follows a similar procedure: press and hold the "SET ALARM" key, then use the "HOUR" and "MINUTE" keys to set the desired alarm time.
- A "TEST KEY" allows users to quickly check the current alarm mode and can be pressed again to deactivate the test feature.
Alarm Modes: The clock offers a comprehensive selection of alarm modes, accessible via a mode switch. These modes include:
- ALL: Activates sound, bedshaker, and the lighted snooze button.
- FLASH/SOUND: Activates sound and the lighted snooze button.
- FLASH/BEDSHAKER: Activates the bedshaker and the lighted snooze button.
- BEDSHAKER/SOUND: Activates the bedshaker and sound.
- FLASH: Activates only the lighted snooze button.
- BEDSHAKER: Activates only the bedshaker.
- OFF: Disables the alarm function.
Ringer Model: The device also includes a "Ringer Model" with similar comprehensive options for awakening, ensuring that the user has a choice of how they want to be alerted. These options mirror the "Clock Alarm Modes" and include combinations of sound, bedshaker, and lighted snooze button, as well as options for only sound, only bedshaker, or only flash.
Snooze and Alarm Off:
- When the alarm is active, pressing the "SNOOZE" key initiates a 9-minute snooze period, after which the alarm will re-activate. This process can be repeated up to 16 times.
- To completely turn off the alarm for the day, the "SNOOZE" key should be pressed and held for three seconds. The alarm will then re-activate at the same time the following day.
Display Dimmer: A "DIMMER HIGH/LOW" switch allows users to adjust the brightness of the digital display, providing comfort in various lighting conditions.
Volume and Tone Control: The alarm sound's volume can be adjusted using the "Volume Control," and its tone can be customized with the "Tone Control," allowing for a personalized auditory alarm experience.
Bedshaker Jack: A dedicated "BEDSHAKER JACK" is provided for connecting the bedshaker accessory, which is particularly useful for individuals who are hard of hearing or prefer a tactile alarm.
Power Input: The device utilizes a "9 V DC" jack for connecting to the switching power supply.

Maintenance Features

The WakeAssure+ Alarm Clock is designed with a focus on reliability and longevity, incorporating features that aid in its maintenance and continued operation:

Battery Backup: The alarm clock includes a battery backup feature, allowing for the installation of a 9-volt battery. This battery serves to retain the time and alarm settings in the event of a power outage. When power is restored, the clock's previous time and alarm settings will remain operational. It is important to note that during a power outage, the clock will not display the current time, and its alarm functions will not be active. Users are advised to plug the unit in before installing batteries. Regular checking of the battery condition, ideally after one year, and replacement of old batteries are recommended to prevent potential damage from leakage. Caution should be exercised when handling electrical appliances during battery replacement.
