on the button that has 1, 2, or 3 beeps; go to the three beep position (which you should be in when you leave it for a minute as a default) and press the "hour" button. If that has a multi-beep response it will either tell you the alarm time which means it is now armed; or it will give you the multi beeps without speaking a time. If it doesn't speak an alarm time that is the hurly announce. Try the minute button in that case and see if you get a multi beep with the alarm announcement of time to indicate arming. The two beep setting is the alarm setting.
