The clock is equipped with a crescendo alarm and an infinite snooze function which postpones the alarm for eight minutes each time it is activated.

The background light is automatically turned on when the alarm goes off but can also be activated on demand by pressing either side of the topbutton momentarily.

Setting of the time is easily done by the front key and the display indicates whether you are setting the time or alarm time and whether the alarm is activated or not. The inner circle flashes once every second and the alarm symbol is shown in the centre when the alarm is active. A key lock function secures the buttons and ensures that the clock is not activated whilst packed in the suitcase.

Jacob Jensen established his studio in 1958 and over the following decades created the revolutionary, pure and now classic form language which has made him one of the world's most recognised designers. Jacob Jesen's son Timothy Jacob Jensen has established the trademark JACOB JENSEN and claarified the universal potential of the form language by transferring it to many product groups.
