Philips hf3532 Smart Sleep wake-up light Projector Environment User Manual
Setting your wake-up profile
When you set your wake-up profile, you set the wake-up time (steps 1 – 6), the light intensity (steps 7 and 8) and the sound level (steps 9 and 10). For each profile, you can set the time, dawn duration (see Adjusting the dawn duration time) and the type of sound. You can set two different wake-up profiles (alarms). For example if you want to wake up at a different time in the weekend than on weekdays. To set the wake-up profile for alarm 1 or 2, select the corresponding alarm at step 2. To activate or deactivate an alarm, press alarm button 1 or 2 on the appliance.
Setting your wake-up sound
You can use natural sounds or the FM radio as a wake-up sound. The Wake-up Light has several built-in natural sounds.
Note: The FM radio function is not available for the HF3532 model.
Setting the display brightness
You can adjust the display brightness from level 0 (off) to level 4. We advise you to set the display brightness in a dark bedroom. Choose a brightness level that is optimal for you to see the display at night. The display brightness will increase to a higher level when the Wake-up light measures a lot of light in the bedroom. This happens automatically, so you will always be able to see the display, even when the surroundings are lighter. Note: If you choose level 0 (display off), you can see the display again by touching it.
Switching the alarm on/of
Press alarm 1 or alarm 2 if you want to switch the alarm on or off. The corresponding icon appears on the display when you switch on the alarm. It dissappears when you switch off the alarm.
When you switch on the alarm, the hour indication starts to flash. If necessary, you can now adjust the alarm time.
Fall-asleep function
To use the fall-asleep function you will need to select both timer setting and sound setting.
- Press the fall-asleep button to switch on the fall asleep function.
- The selected fall-asleep time appears on the display.
- Press the + or – button to adjust the time (5 to 60 minutes).
- Press the ‘SELECT’ button to confirm timer setting.
- Last used sound will appear on display. Press the + or – button to select sound (OFF, relaxing sound 1 (R1), relaxing sound 2 (R2), radio [HF3531 only]).
- Press the ‘SELECT’ button to confirm sound setting. During the fall-asleep function, you can listen to relaxation sounds or the FM radio. Press the fall-asleep button to activate the fall-asleep function with your chosen sound. The sound gradually fades during the set fall-asleep time. Note: If you turn on the radio after activating the fall-asleep function, the sound does not fade when the light dims. The sound stops when the light goes out.
Note: The FM radio function is not available for the HF3532 model.
