Setting the time is simple with the 4 buttons located on the back of the QLOCKTWO EARTH 13.5. Time is measured on a 12-hour cycle. EARTH 13.5 models purchased after winter 2020 or upgraded to the new circuit board can use the smartphone FLASHSETTER app.

Option 1: clock buttons

Back button detail.

• The time display will blink when you connect your clock to the power supply for the first time or if it has been disconnected for longer than 24 hours. If the time is not blinking, Press & hold [☼] button for approximately 3 seconds to enter the time setting mode; display will begin to blink.
• Press [60] button to advance time in 1 hour increments

• Press [☼] OR [] button to save the time.

*Adds on 1, 2, 3 or 4 minutes as corner dots. Each time you touch the [1] button, the internal counter for seconds goes to zero. This makes it possible to set the time precisely to the second. Pressing the time buttons outside of the time setting mode adjusts the alarm clock time.

Option 2: smartphone FLASHSETTER app*

*For EARTH 13.5 models purchased after winter 2020 or upgraded to the new circuit board only.

• Open the app and press the green "FLASH" button.
• The light sensor is on the bottom back of the EARTH 13.5. The strobing light is what changes the time. Position the side of your phone that is flashing facing the light sensor (on Android this is the screen of your phone, on iPhone, the back of your phone).
• The entire clock matrix will light up once the new time is set.

Using FLASHSETTER app on EARTH 13.5

A light sensor on the back helps adjust the level of brightness automatically to the surrounding light.

Press [☼] button to set the level of brightness. The setting options will cycle as follows:

• Strong brightness
• Medium brightness
• Low brightness
• Night touch mode (time only displays when touched)

The time display is switched off in night touch mode. When the alarm is activated, only the symbol will light up.

Night touch functions:

• Show the time of day: Touch the top of the clock body. The time will appear for 3 seconds
• Show the alarm time: Touch the top of the clock body twice in succession. The alarm time will appear for 3 seconds.
• End night touch mode: Press [☼] until your desired brightness setting is selected.

The symbol on the Front Cover shows the status of the alarm.

• Symbol illuminated: Alarm on
• Symbol dim: Alarm off
• Symbol blinks rapidly: Alarm time is displaying
• Symbol blinks slowly: Alarm time is being set
• Symbol pulsates slowly: Snooze mode

Alarm time is set for a 12-hour cycle.

• Adjust the alarm time easily with the [60], [5], and [1] buttons.
• Once your alarm time is set, pause for 5 seconds, and it will be automatically saved.

• Press and hold [] button for approximately 3 seconds.

• Turn alarm on: Press the [] button (the symbol on the front will illuminate). When the alarm is triggered, it will start with a gentle sound and gradually become more persistent.
• Turn alarm off: Press the [] button. If the alarm is sounding, you may also touch the top of the clock body for approximately 2 seconds to turn the alarm off (you will also hear a confirmation beep). The symbol on the front will go dim when the alarm is off. If the symbol is pulsating, the alarm is in snooze mode

• Start snoozing: Touch the top of the clock body. The alarm will sound again after 5 minutes. The function can be repeated as often as necessary.
• End snoozing: Press the [] button or touch the top of the clock body for approximately 2 seconds (the symbol on the front will go dim).

Activating the night light lights up the entire display at the brightest setting.

• Press & hold [60] button for approximately 2 seconds to turn on night light. If you are fumbling in the dark for this, remember it's the button furthest left if you are facing the front of the clock.
• Touch any button to deactivate the night light.

You may choose to either show the introductory words "IT IS" for full hours and half hours only (the factory default) OR show “IT IS” at all times.

• Press & simultaneously hold [☼] + [1] button for approximately 3 seconds to toggle this setting.

The seconds can be set to appear as large numbers on the Front Cover display (only the seconds will appear).

• Press [1] button for approximately 3 seconds to enter this mode. To return to the normal time display, press any button.

Each language requires a separate Front Cover; however, the same clock matrix body can be used for every language (except Arabic). To set your language:

• Press & simultaneously hold [☼] + [5] to access language menu.

• The language currently set is shown in capital letters.
• Press [☼] repeatedly until the appropriate language version appears.
• Press [60] to save the new language and exit language menu.

You only need to purchase one clock to enjoy multiple looks and languages with different Front Covers! The EARTH 13.5 clock body is compatible with all EARTH 13.5 Front Cover variants and languages.*
*Arabic is the only Front Cover variant that requires its own unique clock model body.

The Front Cover is held in place with magnets.

• Have a clean, level surface ready to place the Front Cover on before removing it.
• For all Stainless Steel Front Covers: use cotton gloves when handling (included with delivery).
• Carefully pull off the Front Cover to remove it. Always set it down with the front facing up to avoid scratches.
• For all Acrylic Glass Front Covers: remove the Front Cover from the clock body before removing the protective film. Place the Front Cover on a clean, even surface. Remove the protective film slowly, beginning at a corner.
• Replace the Front Cover accurately onto the front of the clock body.

If you have multiple Front Covers that are not in use, we recommend wrapping them in a scratch-resistant material such as Tyvek, or storing them in the plastic sleeve they arrive in plus bubble wrap, or sandwiching between foam core / cardboard cut at least 1” larger than the Front Cover’s edges to prevent accidental damage.

• Do not use the clock in rooms where humidity is high (e.g. bathrooms). This can damage the clock circuitry
• Do not place the clock directly adjacent to electronic devices that could be sensitive to the clock’s magnets (such as a hard drive).
• Do not place the clock where it could incur unintentional knocks or pulling of the cable.
• Do not place on an unstable surface.
• Do not place near a liquid container (such as nightstand coffee or water) that could accidentally be spilled on the clock.
• Avoid direct heat radiation, for example heat from radiators
• Avoid direct sunlight

On the EARTH 13.5 and 45, the Front Cover is held in place with magnets and can be taken off for cleaning. If you remove the Front Cover, place it on a level, padded clean surface (for example, on top of a soft towel). The EARTH 90 and 180 Front Covers are attached with bolts and should not be removed for cleaning. The Moon objects should not be disassembled.

CAUTION: Polishing cloths and solvents (e.g. turpentine or benzene), and detergents containing alcohol (e.g. spirit) may damage the surfaces. Use cotton gloves (included with delivery) whenever handling Front Covers.

• Acrylic Glass Front Cover (QOLOR)
  Remove slight stains with the microfiber cloth. Remove stubborn stains with a suitable acrylic glass detergent or with a soft microfiber cloth and water containing a very small amount of dish soap.

• Brushed Stainless Steel Front Cover (STAINLESS STEEL)
  Remove slight stains with the microfiber cloth (one is included with delivery). Remove stubborn stains with a suitable stainless steel cleaner. We use Weiman's Stainless Steel wipes: wipe it on, use a microfiber cloth to buff and remove excess cleaner.

• Powder Coated and DLC (Deep Black) Front Covers
  Remove slight stains with a soft microfiber cloth (one is included with delivery). Remove stubborn stains with soft microfiber slightly dampened with water (using as little water as possible); if needed, add a very small amount of dish soap (such as Dawn) to the water before dampening the cloth.
• Velvet Textile Covered Front Covers
  Use a soft velvet brush to remove dust and to smooth the surface. Brush with the velvet grain. Soiling can be removed with a soft, damp cloth.
• Metamorphite, Glintscape and Unfinished Marble (Desert) Front Covers
  Carefully dust surfaces with a soft, dry and dust-free cotton cloth. Select a finely woven cloth that will not 'shed' against the rough surface areas. A very soft hair brush may also work (make sure it will not scratch the surface) without applying pressure.
• Precious Metal Leaf Front Covers (Gold, Silver, Platinum)
  Carefully dust the surface with a soft hair brush without applying pressure. Do not use liquid cleaner, cloth or any rubbing motion as it may start to remove the leaf.
