Highlights
Sustainable and renewable bamboo
Finding ways to care for the environment
involves creative and savvy thinking. Using
bamboo in the clock's top plate is an eco-
friendly step that also adds style to the
product. Not only is bamboo an attractive
material, it is also known to be more
sustainable and renewable than trees. Growing
quickly without fertilisers or pesticides, a
bamboo plant can be harvested in three to five
years, and each plant harvested multiple times.
In addition, the preparation of bamboo for use
in industry results in fewer pollutants and
lower carbon dioxide emissions.
Recycled materials
Taking a stand to be environmentally
responsible, Philips has always made serious
efforts to recycle. The benefits of recycling are
staggering. It reduces the need for fresh non-
renewable resources and takes away the strain
from our already waning planet. It lowers the
need for incinerations and landfills, which have
very harmful effects on ecosystems and the
environment. This clock is made from a high
percentage of recycled materials. The entire
casing is made of 100% recycled plastic, the
paper printings are 100% from recycled paper
and the packaging is produced with 90%
content from recycled materials.
Hazardous controlled component
Restricting the use of hazardous components
marks Philips desire to create a safer living
environment for the human race. On top of
being fully compliant with RoHS directive,
which restricts the use of commonly used
dangerous chemicals like lead, cadmium and
mercury. We have also further restricted the
use of other hazardous components, for
instance, PVC and BFR compounds are free
from any plastic parts, circuit board, power
adaptors and packaging, thus, minimising the
impact on humans and our environment during
use and disposal.
Low power consumption
Under the European Commission's Ecodesign
Directive 2005/32/EC, all Energy-using
Products imported into Europe will have to be
compliant with energy consumption standards
by 2013. This clock radio is designed to comply
with this directive for increased energy
efficiency and overall lower power
consumption, and achieve a standby
consumption of under 1 W. You will have
smaller electric bills and play a part in caring for
the environment.
Auto-dimming light sensor
Always be assured of being able to read the
display, whatever time of day it is. The built-in
light sensor reads the intensity of ambient light
and then determines how bright the display
needs to be to ensure clarity. During the day,
or under strong lighting, the brightness
automatically increases so you can see the
display easily against the surrounding flood of
light. At night, or under very low light
conditions, the display softens, allowing you to
look at the display without discomfort, and
letting you sleep without being disturbed by
glare.

Digital tuning with presets
Simply tune into the station that you want to
preset, then press and hold the preset button
to memorise the frequency. With preset radio
stations that can be stored, you can quickly
access your favourite radio station without
having to manually tune the frequencies each
time.
Plug and set
Take the clock out of its box, plug it in and the
time is already set for you - automatically. The
intelligent clock reads pre-programmed data
and sets the correct time according to the
default time zone. If you are living outside the
default time zone, all you have to do is press
the Time zone button and the clock will reset
the time. No more reading manuals, no more
fiddling with buttons.
Dual alarm
The Philips audio system comes with two
alarm times. Set one alarm time to wake you
up and the other time to wake up your
partner.
