What vehicle/year?

No alarm clock in the 80 series, so I'm guessing 100 series, but please clarify.

Soo glad my LX450 doesn't have a stupid alarm clock. BTW Meischa is right. This was on the 100 series not the 80s

91-92 80-Series digital clock has an alarm feature. I don't know how it works though.

I beg to differ. My 94's got one. They must be on the pre-95 with the old style dash. Sorry Boone, I'm afraid I can't tell you how it works though...

According to my 1992 Owner's Manual - Page 87:

To cancel the alarm setting, depress the "SET" button in the alarm mode. Make sure the "." next to the minute display has disappeared.

To switch to the alarm mode, depress the "ALM" button.

To set the alarm, adjust the display to the desired time by the same procedure as the described in the clock mode. the point "." next to the minute display tells that the alarm is set. After six seconds the display will automatically return to the clock mode.

Hope this helps.

Well I dug out my owners manual for my'94 and what you're looking for if yours is close, is on the display - if you have a "point" next to the minute display it is in the alarm mode. To cancel the alarm setting, depress the "set" button in the alarm mode. Make sure the point next to the minute display has disappeared. -Or you can disconnect your battery and reset your clock. It's your choice! -Tom

Yea, my '94 has an alarm clock and a stop watch feature. Never quite understood the stopwatch feature. Must be for those ultra quick 0-60 times.
