Problem
Solution
Perhaps there is a power failure. Check if the power supply works by
connecting another appliance.
The appliance functions
properly, but the lamp
does not work anymore.
Perhaps the lamp has reached the end of its life. The lamp has
an expected life of more than 10,000 hours (more than 7 years of
normal use). The life depends on the use of the appliance. In case of
heavy use, the lamp may not last as long as you expect. The lamp is not
replaceable. If the lamp stops working, call 1-866-832-4361 for
assistance.
The appliance becomes
hot during use.
This is normal, as the appliance is heated up by the light of the lamp
and the electronics.
The appliance does not
respond when I try to
press or move the dials.
Remove the plug from the wall outlet and reinsert it. If you reinsert the
plug within approximately 15 minutes, the appliance remembers all
settings. If you reinsert the plug after a longer period of time, the
appliance remembers all settings except the time.
The lamp does not go
on when the alarm goes
off.
Perhaps you set a light intensity level that is too low. Increase the light
intensity level.
Perhaps you switched off the alarm by setting the control lever to the
top position. To switch on the alarm, set the control lever to the middle
position.
Perhaps the appliance is defective. Call 1-866-832-4361 for assistance.
The lamp does not go
on right away when I
switch it on.
It takes approx. 1 second for the lamp to go on. This is normal, the
lamp needs to heat up.
I do not hear the alarm
sound when the alarm
goes off.
Perhaps you set a sound level that is too low. To set a higher sound
level, see chapter ‘Using the appliance’, section ‘Radio/volume’.
Perhaps you switched off the alarm by setting the control lever to the
top position.
If you selected the radio as the alarm sound, the radio may be
defective. Switch on the radio after you switch off the alarm to check if
the radio works. If it does not work, call 1-866-832-4361 for assistance.

work.
The radio may be defective. Call 1-866-832-4361 for assistance.

moving it around. Make sure you have unwound the antenna
completely.

yesterday, but it did not
go off today.
