introduction

Congratulations on your purchase and welcome to Philips! To fully benefit from the support that

Philips offers, register your product at www.philips.com/welcome.

The Philips Wake-up Light helps you wake up more pleasantly. The light intensity of the lamp

gradually increases to the set level in the 30 minutes before the set wake-up time. The light gently

prepares your body for waking up at the programmed time. To make waking up an even more

pleasant experience, you can use natural wake-up sounds, the FM radio or even music from your

own iPod/iPhone. The Wake-up Light can be used as a speaker for your iPod/iPhone, which is

charged automatically when it is connected to the Wake-up Light. You can use the dusk

function to have the Wake-up Light dim the light and sound gradually before they are completely

switched off at the time you set.
Note: Only the HF3490 supports the iPod/iPhone function. The iPod/iPhone function is not supported by

other Philips Wake-up Lights.

the effects of the Wake-up light

The Philips Wake-up Light gently prepares your body for waking up during the last half hour of

sleep. In the early morning hours our eyes are more sensitive to light than when we are awake.

During that period the relatively low light levels of a simulated natural sunrise prepare our body for

waking up and getting alert. People who use the Wake-up Light wake up more easily, have a better

overall mood in the morning and feel more energetic. Because the sensitivity to light differs per

person, you can set the light intensity of your Wake-up Light to a level that matches your light

sensitivity for an optimal start of the day.
