HOW TO TURN THE RADIO ON AND OFF

There are two ways to turn the radio on and off. Both are shown below: ON/OFF using the 'SLEEP' button 10 and 'OFF' button 14 and ON/OFF using the 'POWER/STANDBY' button 13 . The 'SLEEP' method only works if the clock is set.

14. When initially turned on, "60" will appear in the LCD for 5 seconds before the frequency display appears. Please note that the radio will automatically turn off after "60" minutes. This helps prevent batteries from running down if the radio is turned on accidentally. Turning the radio on in this manner is associated with the sleep timer function.
