Setting and Exiting Bedside Mode

3. Tap the specific portion of the time that you want to change, and slide
up or down to choose one of the possible values.
Any highlighted portion of the time is editable. You can change the
hours; minutes; AM/PM; and whether the alarm is ON, OFF, or only
WEEKD (weekdays). Setting a value doesn't create an entry in Calendar
or Tasks. Finger-scroll up or down to choose a possible value.
4. Touch-press the OK button to accept all your changes.
You can use a setting in the Clock application called Bedside mode to mini-
mize disturbances by your Storm. With Bedside mode, you can dim the
screen, disable the LED, and even turn off the radio, all of which pretty much
make your Storm behave like a brick. Bear in mind that when you turn off the
radio, you won't get incoming phone calls or any type of messaging. If you
want a refresher on how to set these options, see "Customizing Your Clock,"
previously in this chapter.
To set your BlackBerry Storm in Bedside mode:
1. Touch-press Clock from the Home screen.
2. Touch-press anywhere on the screen and then touch-press Enter
Bedside Mode (Figure 6-5, left).
That's it. Your Storm should now behave like a good bedside companion.
