3. INF0RMATION ABOUT THE E INK
The E ink display imitates the look of ink on paper. Apart
from a great analogue feel, it has many great advantages
when compared to regular displays. It doesn’t emit blue
light, which is essential for an alarm clock. Blue light emis-
sion disrupts healthy sleep, it is advised to limit exposure to
blue light before bed. That is why it is better to leave your
smartphone outside your bedroom and use an alarm clock
instead. Mudita Harmony uses soft back light to illuminate

the screen in the dark. E ink also conserves the battery since
it doesn’t need energy to maintain an image. This is why
when the device is OFF or when the battery is dead it still
holds an image on the display with certain information.

Mudita Harmony is equipped with a fully customized alarm.
We designed the alarm to gently wake you up. This is why 10
minutes (default, but customizable) before the main alarm
you’ll be lightly woken up by a pre-wake up tone and a warm
light. The main alarm of your choice will gently wake you up,
but the snooze function will enable you to stay in bed for a
little longer. Check out more specific information about basic
alarm navigation in simple steps below.

8.2 Pre-wake up tone
Mudita Harmony is equipped with a pre-wake up light to

utes of your sleep cycle. During this time, the low light levels
prepare our body for waking up and becoming alert. You

before the alarm, together with a gentle sound created for
the purpose of awakening your subconscious mind to gently
prepare you to get up with the main alarm.

Snooze is an optional function added to the main alarm.
Customizing snooze enables you to choose the best length
but we also added snooze chime. It’s a short, gentle sound
that can be added in intervals during snooze. It’ll prevent
you from falling back into a deep sleep and therefore help
you eventually wake up slowly, but eectively.

• If you choose snoozes to be ON, in the next step choose
snooze length

(OFF or ON) during snooze and if, how long each interval
should last
• In the next step, choose snooze chime tone
• Then, choose snooze chime volume
9. POWER NAP TIMER
Use the power nap function for a short refreshing period of
light sleep, known for its restorative properties to recharge
during the day. Studies by NASA in 1995 found that a 26-min-
ute power nap boosted performance by 34% and alertness
by 54%. Other studies indicate the best nap length to be
between 10 to 20 minutes, but in general, they shouldn’t
be longer than 30 minutes. This provides restorative sleep,
without drowsiness after waking.

to access the main menu

12. BEDTIME
Consistency is key when it comes to proper sleep hygiene
and good sleep quality. Making sure we wake up and go to
bed at similar times every day ensures our circadian rhythm
is properly regulated. The circadian rhythm is the internal
biological clock which adapts our bodies to better perform
tasks at specific hours. Keeping a consistent sleeping sched-
ule allows us to wake up naturally restored and energized.
When your preferred time for sleep approaches, and it’s time
for bed, the Bedtime reminder melody will sound, in order to
remind you that it’s time to start your bedtime routine. This
way, you create a daily ritual around your bedtime and use it
as a way to unwind and relax.
