This clock radio features a dual alarm system, with two separate alarms that can be operated independently. The alarms can be set to wake two people at different times, or to have a main alarm and a backup. One alarm features your choice of radio stations as an alarm wake sound, while the second features a buzzer wake sound. You can set the radio alarm, the buzzer alarm, or both alarms.
Setting Radio Alarm
1. Press the "Alarm Set" Button. The display will flash and the Radio Alarm Indicator will appear. If you do not begin setting the time within ten seconds of pressing the it, the display will stop flashing andd you will need to press the "alarm Set Button again. 2. While the display flashes, press the "Tuning/Set" Buttons to set the wake time. Hold a button for a few seconds to advance the time rapidly. Be sure to set the correct AM/PM time, as shown by the PM Indicator. 3. After setting the radio alarm time, you will need to select the station to wake up to. First, press the "AM/FM" Button to select a radio frequency. Next, select a station using the "Radio Preset Buttons". Rotate the Volume Thumbwheel to set a wake sound volume level. 4. After setting the radio alarm wake time and sound, you will need to select your 7-5-2 setting. The 7-5-2 setting lets you set the alarm for a full week, weekdays only, or the weekend. Before setting the alarm, be sure that the correct date is set. 5. After you have set the radio alarm wake time, wake sound, and 7-5-2 setting, press the "Alarm Set" Button twice so that the display shows the standard, non-flashing display.
Setting Buzzer Alarm
1. Press the "Alarm Set" Button twice. The display will flash and the Buzzer Alarm Indicator will appear. 2. While the display flashes, press the "Tuning/Set" Buttons to set the wake time, as described above. 3. After setting the buzzer wake time, use the "Date/7-5-2" Button to select the buzzer. 4. After you have set the buzzer wake time and 7-5-2 setting, press the "Alarm Set" Button once so that the display shows the standard, non- flashing display.
Activating the Alarms
1. To activate the radio alarm, press the "Radio Alarm" Button so that the Radio Alarm Indicator appears on the display. As long as this indicator appears, the alarm will sound at the set time and days. 2. To activate the buzzer alarm, press the "Buzzer Alarm" Button so that the Buzzer Alarm Indicator appears on the display. As long as this indicator appears, the alarm will sound at the set time and days. 3. When the alarm sounds, press the " Off/Reset" Button to turn off the alarm while still maintaining the programmed 7-5-2 alarm settings. To turn off an alarm and cancel its 7-5-2 settings, press its "Alarm Button" so that its Alarm Indicator no longer appears on the display. 4. To activate the snooze feature, press the "Snooze/Night-Light" Bar when the alarm sounds. The alarm will shut off for approximately nine minutes before sounding again. The feature can be repeated several times during the one-hour snooze cycle. 5. If it is not turned off, the alarm will sound for an hour before stopping.

copy and paste the above link in your internet address bar under a new tab. It is your entire manual.
Hold down ALARM SET and press ALARM MODE. The Alarm 2 indicator flashes. You now have 10 seconds to begin setting Alarm 2. Note: The Alarm 2 indicator must be flashing while setting Alarm 2 wake up time or sound. To set Alarm 2 wake up time, hold down ALARM SET and press either TUNING button

For manual copy and paste this link in your internet address bar under a new tab:

To set your alarm you should be turning your Set Control (the big round button just below the Set Day button) to Alarm 1 or 2. Once you finish setting your time you should be able to turn the Set Control back to Clock and the time should stop flashing. If this does not work you may have a defective unit which you might have to take up with your retailer.

When you set the alarm, afterwards you set the time; after setting the time, there's another clock that you can set ("T ON" it says), which is the start time for the ipod. Set this time and set it on "ON". The next timer is for the end time of the ipod (T OFF), I don't use it, but if set on ON it will switch off the ipod.
Now don't set the alarm! You set the start time for the ipod and on the left hand side there should be an [ON] indicator.

Hope this works!

First, make sure you have new batteries in it. Then you have two choices:

Hold down the 3rd button -- the antenna button -- until the little antenna sign displayed on the right starts blinking and "broadcasting"...and then wait for the clock to set itself.

When that doesn't work (LOL), try this:
Hold down the "Set" button until each of the various fields start blinking. Then press the up button (3rd one) or the down button (4th one) to adjust each field to the desired number, etc. At least, that's what my office technician did to set mine. Good luck.

Here is how I set my ZENITH ZG120M radio alarm clock.

1) PRESS AND HOLD DOWN the HOUR BUTTON and then PRESS the TIME BUTTON to set the correct hour.
2) PRESS AND HOLD DOWN the MINUTE BUTTON and then PRESS the TIME BUTTON to set the correct minute.
To Set The Wake Up Time
1) PRESS and HOLD DOWN the SNOOZE/ALARM SET BUTTON and then PRESS the HOUR BUTTON to set the desired hour.
2) Press and HOLD DOWN the SNOOZE/ALARM SET BUTTON and then PRESS the MINUTE BUTTON to set the desired minute.
There are two light indicators that light up on the left side of the LED display...the top light indicator will come
on once the time turns to PM. The bottom light indicates the alarm is set.

I've manage to set it... press time/awake and the 1 flashes... use arrows to set the time... then press time/awake again for alarm 2.

But how do you know when it is actually set?? it did not go off this morning and i was late for work!
