FAQ [continued]
Q: What are the features of the Sonic Alert SB1000SS Boom Alarm
Clock with Bed Shaker?
A: The Sonic Alert SB1000SS Boom Alarm Clock with Bed Shaker has an
extra-loud 113 dB alarm with adjustable tone and volume control. It
also has a built-in receiver for other Sonic Alert signalers, a
SS12VW Super Shaker bed vibrating unit, and a 120V lamp connection
input. Users can select the alarm and snooze duration. The clock
has a digital display, requires one 9V battery (not included), and
comes with a power cord and bed shaker. It weighs 1 pound and
measures 8.8"W x 4.9"H.
Q: Does the clock come with a bed shaker or is it sold
separately?
A: The clock comes with a SS12VW Super Shaker bed vibrating
unit.
Q: Can the clock turn on the light without flashing?
A: No, the light only works in flash setting when plugged into the
alarm clock. The lamp flashes in time with the bed shaker's
pulsations. However, users can turn on the lamp whenever they want
by clicking the large yellow button.
Q: Can users shut off the audible alarm and leave the shaker
on?
A: Yes, users can choose to use either alarm or the shaker.
Q: Does the receiver still vibrate even if the outlet is turned off
or alarm is off?

they will get a blinking lamp, vibration steady or pulsing, and an
alarm.

A: Users cannot set two different times on this clock. They can
only set one time like a normal alarm clock does.
Q: Can this clock wake users up in case of a fire?
A: No, this clock does not have the capability of waking users up

better option for that purpose.
Q: Can users set the clock to only flash the light and vibrate
without sound?
A: Yes, users can turn off the volume on the clock by using the
knob on the upper left-hand side. They can also set the outlet
switch to lamp only, vibrate only, or both. The clock will then
only flash the light and vibrate without sound.
