Inserting and replacing batteries

• Open the battery compartment on the bottom side by sliding the

cover of the battery compartment in the direction of the arrow.

• Insert three Micro/AAA type batteries, with the correct polarity

(observe Plus/+ and Minus/-). After that, the vibrating alarm emits a

brief vibrating and audio signal.

If you wish to use rechargeable batteries please note

that, due to the lower output voltage (batteries = 1.5 V,

rechargeable batteries = 1.2 V), the operating time will de-

crease.

Therefore, we recommend that you use high-quality alka-

line batteries to operate the vibrating alarm clock in order

to ensure long-lasting and reliable operation.

• Then, put the cover on so that it snaps in.

• The batteries need to be changed if a message is indicating that the

batteries are empty is displayed in the app.

Controls

1 Button for snooze and control LED

2 “ALARM” button

3 “RESET” button

4 “PAIR” button

Downloading the app

Start the Apple AppStore or Google Play Store and download the “BleAlarm” app.

The app is compatible with all smartphones and tablets that are equipped with Blue-

tooth

4.0, for example, iPhone 4S or higher.

If you are using an iPad, you may switch to the AppStore to display the iPhone apps in

the search mode (top left display “iPhone only” instead of “iPad only”); otherwise, the

app is not found.

When using an Android device, at least Android 4.3 is required as operating system for

the app to be displayed and downloadable in the Play Store.

Connecting the vibrating alarm clock to your smartphone/tablet

Both devices must be paired with each other for the vibrating alarm clock to work with the app

(“pairing” - or coupling process in Bluetooth

Proceed as follows:

• Make sure that the Bluetooth

function is activated on your smartphone/tablet.

• Start the “BleAlarm” app.

• In the home screen of the app, no paired devices will be displayed when you start for the ﬁrst

time. Touch the lower button to pair a new device. A message then appears indicating that the

pairing button on the vibrating alarm clock should be pressed for 5 seconds.

Hold down the “PAIR” button on the bottom of the vibrating alarm clock for 5 seconds; a beep is

audible and the LED on the top is ﬂashing rapidly in blue. The pairing procedure is activated.

You will ﬁnd a new vibrating alarm clock in the app; if you touch the corresponding button of

the app the pairing process will complete. The LED on the alarm clock now ﬂashes 1x every

6 seconds in blue.

The pairing must be done correctly; otherwise, the vibrating alarm clock cannot be

used.

Up to 5 vibrating alarms can be simultaneously controlled via the app.

Note that a vibrating alarm clock can be paired with only one smartphone/tablet. There-

fore, it is not possible to control a vibrating alarm clock by multiple smartphones/tab-

lets.

• After completing the pairing process, the time, date and the available alarm and timer settings

are synced. In addition, the app displays the battery status of the vibrating alarm clock.

Operation

Renaming the vibrating alarm clock

Tap the name of the vibrating alarm clock

in the app (“vibrating alarm” in default set-

ting), and you can now change the name, if

desired.

Displaying the battery status

The battery level of the vibrating alarm clock is represented by a battery symbol in the main menu

of the app:

< 20%

When the batteries are low (< 20%), a warning message is also displayed in the app - replace the

Setting the alarm time

Touch the corresponding button in the app to create a new alarm.

Set the desired alarm time. You can specify the day of the week for the alarm, the alarm tone and

volume; even the name of the alarm can be set.

If no day is selected, the vibrating alarm clock sounds the alarm only once when the set

time is reached.

If the alarm is no longer needed, it can be temporarily disabled (turn off alarm). You can also com-

pletely delete the alarm.

Conﬁrm the setting/selection in the top left so that the display of the app returns to the main menu.

The vibrating alarm clock has an internal clock and after setting via the app, it can work

independently of the smartphone / tablet.

Time and date of the vibrating alarm clock automatically sync with those of your smart-

phone / tablet each time you are connecting via Bluetooth

, so that no manual adjust-

ment is necessary.

Stopping the alarm

To stop the alarm, press either the button on the top of the vibrating alarm

clock or the button “ALARM”.

Important!

If snooze mode (“Snooze”) is activated in the app and you are

pressing the button on the top, the alarm will pause for a short

while (5 minutes by default) and then sound again.

By pressing the button “ALARM” you stop the alarm and disable

snooze mode.

Please refer to the next section.

The alarm can also be closed in the app itself (move the slide switch to the right of each alarm to

the “off” position).

Snooze mode

The snooze mode (“Snooze”) can be switched on or off in the app for each

vibration alarm. You can also specify for how long the alarm should pause

Before you can change the settings of the vibrating alarm clock, you need of course, to

pair the vibrating alarm clock with one of the alarm clocks displayed in the main view

of the app.

Simply tap one of the displayed vibrating alarm clocks (one is included in the delivery;

however, the app can be used for up to 5 vibrating alarm clocks); a pop-up appears in

the app that indicates the search for the selected alarm clock.

adjust the duration of the alarm.

By default, the automatic summer/winter time changeover is also activated; this can

be turned off in the set-up mode.

In the bottom two rows of the set-up mode, the current time zone is displayed and the date on

which the changeover between summer/winter time is made.

Timer function

Touch the button in the app for the timer (bottom row with the time display of the timer, 0:00:00 by

default).

Here, you can then set hours, minutes and seconds for the timer, and select the alarm sound and

volume.

After setting the timer, return to the main screen, so that the timer can be started and stopped or

paused with the start button to the left of the timer time.

If the timer is stopped prematurely, then a button appears to the right of the time to

reset the timer (to the timer time set by you).

Proceed as follows, if you want to clear the vibrating alarm clock from the app (e.g., if you use

multiple alarm clocks and you want to remove one of them):

to delete one of the vibrating alarm clocks.

A button is now displayed to the right of the vibrating alarm clocks that prompts you to conﬁrm

whether you want to clear the vibrating alarm clock. The vibrating alarm clock is removed from

the app. when the button is touched.
