INSTRUCTION MANUAL FOR
NATURAL ALARM CLOCK
Introduction
Thank you for buying the DawnLite Natural Alarm Clock.
Each morning, DawnLite will brighten your room gradually
just like the rising of the sun, so that you wake in a natural
way feeling refreshed and ready for the day ahead. Doing so
can also help reset your circadian rhythms (or ‘body clock’) to
enhance the quality of your sleep, and relieve mild
symptoms of Seasonal Affective Disorder (S.A.D).
You can also use DawnLite at night to create your own sunset
and so promote deeper,more restful sleep.
Your Safety
• Do not remove the glass globe from the lamp unless the
unit has been switched off, and the globe has been
allowed to cool completely.
• DawnLite uses a 40W G9 halogen bulb.
• Keep away from water or damp conditions.
• Please do not open the base unit. There are no user
serviceable parts inside.
