Set an alarm in the calendar

You can set an alarm in the calendar to go off at scheduled days and times. Scheduling alarms in the calendar does not change
your regular alarm in the Clock application. Because the alarm tone settings are shared by the alarms in the Calendar and the
Clock application, changes to the alarm tone settings will affect the alarms in both applications.

1. On the Home screen, click the Calendar icon.
2. Press the

key > New Alarm.

3. Type the alarm information.
4. If you want the alarm to recur, change the Recurrence field.
5. Press the

key > Save.
