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 set time.To make sure you will be woken up on time, a
‘beep’ sound will be played at the set alarm time.
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 theWake-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 yourWake-up Light to a level that matches your light sensitivity for an
optimal start of the day.
For more information about the Wake-up Light, see www.philips.com.
