A good clue as to whether its a piezo sounder is that some other

Isn't it easier just to look at it? A piezo sounder looks nothing like a
moving coil speaker.

The manual is available here,

I assume the OP has it but for others trying to help in the manual the
speaker looks like a normal moving coil speaker

Yes, it is a normal, paper cone speaker.
And to clarify further, this is not a clock/radio.
