I've tried to access the manual through the twice posted link above, but it appears 1) they no longer sell the clock and 2) there's no evidence of a manual (perhaps they've redesigned the website and removed that option?). Does anybody know how to turn off the alarm? I love this conversation : p

Took out the bottom battery and put it back again did the trick. Cheers! Thank you for the advice regarding the color backlight. Took out the bottom battery and put it back again did the trick.

So you're right about the battery but wrong about no one reading your post! Now the Temp mode shows ERR all the time....how about that one? :-) John I had the same problem with the light and fiddling with the bottom battery fixed it, too.

You only think no one will read your post. In fact, your post solved the problem for me! My in-laws gave us this clock several years ago. It never did show the colored display, even though their's did. It has been an exercise in frustration, until I ran across your post. Rolling the bottom battery did the trick. Thanks, I owe ya a beer! Scott Hah! You only think no one will read your post. In fact, your post solved the problem for me! My in-laws gave us this clock several years ago.

You can take it out and the clock still works. My backlight stopped working, until i rolled the bottom battery around to make better contact, now it works fine.
