Once the time flashes correctly, press the Set button again to lock it in. This is the moment of truth—like clicking “Send” on a risky email. Then, test it. Set the alarm for two minutes from now and let it ring. If it goes off, you’re a hero. If it doesn’t, you’ve just discovered the one time your clock decides to play possum.
I once skipped this step and set my alarm for “12:00” instead of “06:00.” The clock dutifully woke me up at noon, which was great—if my job was a brunch waiter. Never trust the blinking numbers. They lie. Your future self, the one who has to be at work before 9 AM, is depending on your current self’s patience.
