Tapping on a bar at the bottom of the screen in the alarm clock menu switches between alarm clocks and the sleep timers. If alarms have been set, the corresponding icon in the bar indicates this with the number of active alarms shown inside a circle.
Up to fifteen alarms can be shown in a carousel view on the screen. They are sorted from the beginning of the day on the left and the end of the day on the right. If less than fifteen alarms have been set, an 'Add Alarm' icon is available in the carousel display at the far right. If fifteen alarms have been created, the 'Add Alarm' icon is not available.
New alarms are set to be 'On' when created. Alarms can be toggled off and on by pressing on an alarm tile. An active alarm has a red line at the top of the alarm tile.
If an alarm has been set to repeat, the selected days of the week is listed below the time.
The audio of an alarm can be set under 'Audio Source.' Options include up to 15 preset alarm sounds and any available radio station.
If an alarm includes turning on lights, a light icon is shown on the alarm tile at the bottom right. Wake up lighting can be set to be turned on at 10 to 100 percent brightness.
Alarms can be edited by pressing on the pencil icon below the alarm tile. To delete an alarm, press on the edit pencil icon and choose 'Delete.'
Note: The ability to set the alarm clock and timers is only available when the parking brake is engaged.
