GETTING STARTED

HOW YOUR CLOCK WORKS WITH THE NIGHTLIGHT - OVERVIEW

 The clock can be set independently to give you

time, calendar and alarm facilities.

 The nightlight can be set independently to light up

in the dark so you can see where you are going.

 The clock and nightlight can also be used together

to turn the clock backlight on when you walk into a dark room, or wave your arm from the comfort of your bed. It can do this because the nightlight has 2 types of sensor. One sensor responds to light and the other responds to movement. From the clock unit you can set these sensors to be active during a certain period of time.
