There is a switch on the side that you flip up to turn on and down to turn off. It is loud enough that we car hear it from upstairs in a 5 bedroom house.

We were able to turn the audio off. There is a setting to mute the alarm. We are away on vacation now and do not have the book with us but it was clear in the instructions how to mute the sound. Not sure why you are having problems. Worked great for us. Sorry couldn't be of more help.

My alarm gets progressively louder the longer it on. After about 1 minute it's very loud. So I haven't set the loudness.

I can't remember exactly, but the alarm was driving me CRAZY! I finally went through the instructions again and figured it out. Sorry I can't be of more help.

The button at the top between the volume buttons will turn off the music/noise. The light will stay on unless you push the light button too. Dont use the alarm 1/alarm 2 buttons on the sides.

The alarm comes on low but increases in volume, no matter what the volume setting of the sound you use. I have not used the Tone or Radio as an alarm but used Wind Chimes, and it was nice. Started low and gradually increased. If you are not a light sleeper, set the alarm maybe 1 or 2 minutes before you want to wake up so that the volume reaches a level that will wake you up in time.

Seem as they are all broken I don't remember. There is a on off switch for sound so I just wanted a visual. I never used the audible alarm. But like I said, none of them work as all failed.

Either on or off and the alarm is continuous until your mute it, unlike the motion sensor option

If you're asking how to turn it off so there's no digits displayed - you cannot (besides removing the batteries). I can assure you though that the batteries do last a very long time. I got this to use in the kitchen and it has been working for more than 6 months with daily use. I also have the double timer version that has been running for over a year with the same batteries. If you're asking about the alarm, when it's going off just hit the stop button or turn off the alarm using the side switch.

When you switch the alarm on, place it on the door knob and be sure that it is not swinging. It will arm in about 10 seconds. After this the device will alarm at the slightest jar or bump. It is very sensitive. This alarm would be used by someone within a room or home and can be used in either the chime or alarm function. This unit is very sensitive and works well for me. However it can be set off by anything that causes the alarm to jar or move. Bumping the door or slaming an adjacent door will set the alarm off.

if you touch the alarm when it's on it will go off and will scare the crap out of the theif before he can turn it off it is very loud. i have placed it to where it can't be seen so there is no chance of anyone turning it off with out alerting me.

Honestly the light always wakes me up before the actual alarm goes off, it's a gradual light. I use the bird noise which is less alarming than beeping but as others have said all you have to do is turn down the volume.

You pull out an activation pin. This allows a circuit to complete, setting off the alarm.

You simply push the panic button and the alarm sounds. I guess it is for if you are in your house and are having an emergency or being invaded then maybe the neighbors will hear and come to your rescue or maybe just the noise will scare the intrudes off? Kinda stupid I think, probably will never use the panic button.

Yes you can wake to the sounds or the radio or a beeper. The wake-up sounds start at zero volume then slowly increase to a predetermined upper volume level. Then there is a snooze (with variable settings) or any button will turn the alarm off. There are a lot of complexities to all the features, but it's okay once you get used to it. I recommend this product.

There is a gradual volume control that allows loud to soft. You also have about 25 different alarm sounds to choose from. Works great. Also the base and sensor can be 100 feet apart and still work. I have tried others and recommend this one!
