This video remains helpful through the years when we forget how to use the settings. Thank you so much!

2 years later, this video is still helpful as ever. This convinced me to get one! Thanks for the helpful tutorial!

Wow, thank you! I bought this on eBay and downloaded a manual, but I was getting nowhere with it. Fine public service here, even five years after you made the video.

The best video on the HF3520 I've seen. Thank you! I just ordered one of these today. I work night shifts and have my room completely blacked out, so I need a sunrise simulator to make sure I don't sleep my day away. Great video, quality content. Thank you

Thank you!!! Wtf Phillips why is this not a paid video lol. Great job, friend! I couldn't figure this alarm out before I watched this. You're awesome!

I'm really glad you did this tutorial. Mine arrived today and after unboxing .... the set up manual was thick textbook size! You gave me hours of my life back, thank you!

Just opened the box that arrived today and couldn´t find the energy to read instructions. But thankś to you I will now go and set it up :) Good work - thanks!

The two I bought just arrived. Thanks for helping me with setup.

Helpful video. Someone stole my phone and I needed an alarm clock! This is perfect.

Just what I needed to walk me through step by step. Excellent! :)

Thank you soooooo much for taking the time to make this!!!

Thank you. This was very helpful. I found the written instructions completely confusion, but I was able to set my unit up easily while following your instructions.

Thanks so much, I couldn’t figure out how to set mine up. 😄

Thank you for such interesting and useful video. It's extremely helpful for non English speakers!

Thank you so much for this how to! Phillips should pay you! I wasn't able to follow the simplistic directions it came with, thought oh send it back. It was a splurge item for me, but living in a dark apt., figured it might be a good thing for me to have. Figuring it wasn't for me and just send it back, I looked up how to set it up and saw your video. Very helpful, thanks!

Thanks for this!!! I have two arriving later today and will use this video as a reference! 😃

Excellent 'How to" Setup Video - thank you so much!

Thank you so much !! This was so simple to follow!!! 👏🏼

Thank you! So simply confusing! I really appreciated your help.

This was very helpfull. Thank you!!

Great Video! Thank you!

LIFESAVER!!! Thank you!

Great video. Thanks.

Very helpful - thank you.

Great video as I just unboxed today. I read so many descriptions and they do a great job telling you what you want to hear. So what I don't get is , Do I have to push alarm button on very night? For alarm 2 for do I have to turn off alarm 1 and turn on alarm 2? My old alarm clock can be set by the day, so different day , different time no problem. I have had for 10 years and have never had to touch it since originally set. Hard to believe this does not have that capability

Thank you very helpful

very helpful, thanks!

Thank you very much! They should have paid you for that, because I’ll keep mine because of you.

Great video!!

Thank you!

Thank you!!!

I have this device. It works pretty good but I had to tape some little signs on the face so that I could easily find the right hard buttons, otherwise you're fumbling for them.

This is great, wish the Philips website had something just as simple to understand!

Thanks for the video. We have one of these and it’s great. Does anyone know how to set the duration of the ‘sun up’ feature? (The length of time over which the light gradually increases brightness until the alarm time?)

Thank you! I can use my lamp after 8 months not knowing how to set up ha! 🙏🏼🎉

Thank you

How long does the snooze last before you hear sound again? Also what happens with the light when you set two alarms? Say you set your first alarm for 7am and then one for 7:15. The light will adjust starting at whatever time and by 7am will be at it's brightest setting. Does the light then turn off and start over for 7:15? or is the second alarm just for sound and light doesn't effect it?

I have watched several reviews on this product and not one describes how much light it produces. I am kinda happy it does not connect to my phone............it is almost as if someone found old new stock from the 80's :)

The bulb can't be changed. Outrageous design.

I use Philips hue to wake up but it is not that bright. Would this be brighter than lightbulbs?

Does this not have a way to just set the alarm from Mon-Fri and have weekends turned off? Or do I have to manually shut it off on Friday?

How do you turn off the alarm in the morning so that you don't have to reset the alarm every evening?

Just unboxed mine, figured out all of the functions but was fretting over where the sleep feature was hiding...in plain sight! (I thought that was a snooze button) thank you for this walk thru!

What is the maximum time set for the fall asleep function?

I JUST received my alarm clock and for some reason, I don't hear the preview of the "bird" icon... do you have any clue what could be happening?

can't you adjust the wake up time duration? i think you forgot to cover that feature... If you set your alarm for 8am you could have the light come on more more slowly (say 30 minutes so the first sign of light would be at 7:30) or more fast.

I ordered mine and my package got stolen. I wish there is a way to have second alarm to go off on certain days when you are off work and have it set up to wake you up later on in the day/morning. Thank you for this video!

Hi! Thank you for this. Does it actually lit up the room, or is it just a large glowing spotlight?

How do you press snooze?

How do you add sound to sleep mode?

is it possible to listen to natural sounds while using the dusk/falling asleep function?

How do you turn off the light after the alarm goes off? I will be setting the alarm level to zero and will need the light to get dressed.

How is the Snooze button? I have a glowing Philips clock, too, but it's a smaller model. The Snooze button on mine is a touch sensor instead of a physical button, and I have a frustrating time hitting it just right. I end up smacking the top repeatedly until it recognizes my hand. Also, does yours have a battery back-up for when the power goes out? Mine doesn't, so I have to use my cell phone just in case. I find using my phone defeats the purpose of the alarm clock.

Does anybody know what the time is for the following? Snooze, Alarm sound on, and sleep sounds on? Thanks

Is there a way to adjust the length of the wake up time where it slowly brightens the light?

How do you turn off the alarm or hit snooze?

How do you turn off the test function

Is it possible to turn off the LED display on the clock when going to sleep? I like to sleep in a 100% pitch black room lol

my lamp stopped working can any suggest some troubleshooting? Philips was absolutely horrid to deal with

I know its been years but I'm hoping you can help me answer this question since I cant find the demonstration anywhere. When you wake up in the morning how do you turn the alarm off? If you hit the alarm button it will not start again tomorrow as it sets off the alarm entirely. Do you have to hit the alarm button twice then every morning? Once to turn it off and again to set it up for next morning?

Is there any way to keep the light on passed the alarm time? I want the highest intensity light to keep shining until I am out of bed, not just until the alarm time is up.

I just got one and the buttons on the right side of the rim dont work... Anyone else have this problem and fix it? Id rather not have to return and wait for anotherrr

researching this a lot lately. Can't decide on this or the trending Sunrise Smart Pillow which includes 18 features for the same price. Looks like what they said is right, the tech industry is changing fast. this clock looks great too

So I've had this thing for YEARS and I just brought it out of storage, but I struggle turning the DAMN THING OFF!!!

Recently the alarm light switches off right before the alarm sounds goes off. Have you had a similar issue?

I have a question my friend gave me hers she had hers for awhile. I just wanted to know if you can set it up as a sound machine?

Hi please could you let me know how to turn off the alarm in the morning when it is ringing?

Thank you so much. Love my light but the instructions suck.

Can we dim the display?

I just need to see the correct time! Why is it so hard to get that info ??

Phillips sent me here rather than explain it to me. lol

Any info on how to do factory reset?

How do you set the alarm to am? I set mine for 9 and it goes off at 9 pm instead of 9 am ..

Does this Alarm clock have a app to set up everything?

Why is yours so shiny?A cover?

I just received mine and it is not user friendly neither is the manual that comes with it in my opinion. I cannot get it out of military time instead of 8:38 for example it says the time is 2038 and I can't seem to change it even in menu and when I press select it won't let me change anything please advise

Is there no way to darken the display of the clock itself? It seems like having that light shine into your room all night would decrease the quality of your sleep.

I'm doing a giveaway of the Philips alarm clock seen in this video! www.chillpill.io/giveaways/philips-wakeup-light/

Snooze?

Is everyone ignoring the ridiculous bird next on his nightstand?

how do you show all of this but not the most fundamental part of how to set the time? good video otherwise

thanks, but wish you would talk about 1. how to set clock (as it just prompts when its first purchased, didnt see anything in Manual for setting clock), 2. Setting 12 hours vs 24 hours. How confusing!! OMG, I called PHillips today. 2 reps, on phone 35 minutes didnt have answers. No one could answer: why it is set in Military time. Who wants to wake up ? 0800 hours or 1200 hours? (clueless what this is), so, she said "do 12 hours" /why am i setting a clock to run 12 hours. Phillips rep laughed and said "i dont know, just reading our manual'. Who designed this? So, I guess 12 hours gIVES you AM or PM, 24 hours doesnt. (you didnt mention this), trying to save someone else angst of this set up. Poor design! 3. How do you get various sounds, you whipped thru that. That "bird'. icon, shows up, but where is other sounds? 5. I used level 1 for bird (i still dont know how to get other nature sounds) and on LEVEL 1 i thought a bird sanctuary was in my bedroom today. 6. How to you get slow graduating sounds from llite chirp bird, or soft ocean wave (if i can tfind it) does this do slow graduating sounds as 'sound machines' do in stores? SO many questions. Folks, Manual tells you NOTHING............... sorry for caps yelling. tHIS DEVICE IS A SEINFELD SKIT. OR FRASIER. NILES CRANE WOULD NOT BUY THIS............... OMG. THE WORST SET UP. WHEN ,SOMEDAY, i get this to work right.......I am sure its terrific! Phillips, get your left brain tech engineers to make these AND get your right brain CREATIVE staff to write the MANUAL!! omg, worst manual ever! 'the guessing manual' by phillips. and customer service who just sas "sorry , i wish i could help '. ..................................when I DO get mine working, will post a hilarious you tube video, that makes sense. appreciate you trying, but: try to do ti slower, and give options.......thanks!

Omg do many verbalized pauses, pivots, throat clearing. And the worst example of ur failure is that u'd say OFF and quickly correct urself by saying ON. You'd say RED but quickly correct urself and say PINK. Wtf!
