4.Slide the corresponding WAKE FUNCTION Selector to the MUSIC position. The WAKE SET Indicator will light in the display.

The radio will turn on at the wake time you have set and will turn itself off after approximately 1 hour. TOturn the radio off sooner, press RADIO ON/OFF button. (This ends the wake cycle while leaving the wake system in place, ready to turn itself on again at the same time the next day. The WAKE SET Indicator will remain in the display.) To turn off the wake system, slide the WAKE FUNCTION Selector to the OFF position. The WAKE SET Indicator will light in the display.

WAKE TO ALARM

1.Set the wake time (see, “SE~lNG THE WAKE TIME”) using the WAKE 1 or WAKE 2 WAKE SET button.

2.Slide the corresponding WAKE FUNCTION seletior to the AURM position. The WAKE SET Indicator will light in the display.

An alarm tone will sound at the wake time you have set and will turn itself off after about 1 houc To turn the alarm off sooner, press RADIO ON/OFF button or slide the WAKE FUNCTION Selector to the OFF position.

NOTE: The VOLUME Control setting determines the loudness of the alarm.

SLEEP TO MUSIC

You can drift off to sleep to music knowing that the radio will turn itself off automatically, Simply

1.With the radio turned off, press and hold the SLEEP button. The time display will exhibit 0:59, and the radio will turn on automatically.

2.Hold down the SLEEP button to select any sleep time between 59 minutes and 1 minute, depending on how long you wish the radio to play.

●After pressing the SLEEP button, there is a delay of approx- imately 2 seconds before automatic countdown starts.

3.Release the SLEEP button and current time is once again displayed.

The radio is now on and you can select your station in the usual way. Play will be for the chosen length of time (up to 59 minutes), and then the radio will turn itself off. If you decide to turn the radio off sooner, press the RADIO ON/OFF button.

SLEEP TO MUSIC AND

WAKE TO MUSIC OR ALARM

You can set your digital clock radio to lull you to sleep, turn itself off, then awaken you at a preset time — all automatically.

1.Set the wake time.

2.Follow the steps under WAKE TO MUSIC or WAKE TO ALARM.

3.Then, proceed with Steps 1 through 3 under SLEEP TO MUSIC.

(NOTE: Be sure the appropriate FUNCTION SELE~R is in WAKE position.)

SNOOZ-ALARM@ CONTROL OPERATION

The Snooz-Alarm control has three functions:

1.It allows extra sleep time after the radio comes on in the WAKE TO MUSIC mode. Press SNOOZ bar to silence the radio. About 7 minutes later, the radio will play again.

2.It allows extra sleep time in the WAKE TO ALARM mode. When the alarm sounds, touch the SNOOZ bar to silence the alarm. About 7 minutes later, the alarm will sound again.

You can use the SNOOZ feature repeatedly for up to one hour, after which the radio or alarm will turn off until the next day.

3.The SNOOZ-AURM control can also be used to show seconds in the digital display. Simply press SNOOZ at any time other than during an active WAKE interval and the display will change from hours and minutes to minutes (O-9 only) and seconds. (Pressing TIME SET and FORWARD while holding down SNOOZ button will advance display to the next whole minute.) Release SNOOZ but- ton and hours and minutes are once again displayed.

2-9720 specifications

The GE 2-9720 is a cutting-edge locomotive model developed by General Electric, designed to meet the demanding requirements of modern railroads for efficiency, power, and environmental sustainability. Entering service in the early 2000s, the 2-9720 is part of GE's Evolution Series, which focuses on advanced technology and fuel efficiency.

One of the main features of the GE 2-9720 is its powerful 12-cylinder engine, specifically designed to provide high horsepower while being environmentally friendly. The locomotive is equipped with the GE Tier 3 compliant and Ecomagination technology, which helps reduce emissions compared to older models. The locomotive meets strict EPA standards, making it a suitable choice for rail operators looking to minimize their environmental footprint.

The GE 2-9720 also incorporates the latest in electronic controls, which enhance the overall performance and reliability of the locomotive. The advanced microprocessor control system allows for real-time diagnostics and maintenance planning, ensuring optimal performance under varying conditions. Operators benefit from features such as traction control, which optimizes adhesion on different rail conditions, improving safety and efficiency during operations.

Another notable characteristic of the GE 2-9720 is its dynamic braking system. This technology converts kinetic energy back into electrical energy, which can be fed back into the locomotive's systems or used to power other trains on the line, thus enhancing overall energy efficiency. This feature is especially beneficial for operations involving frequent stops, gradients, or heavy loads.

Additionally, the GE 2-9720 is designed with crew comfort and safety in mind. The operator's cab is ergonomically equipped with advanced user interfaces for monitoring train performance, ensuring that engineers have the necessary tools to operate the locomotive efficiently. Safety systems include enhanced visibility features for improved situational awareness and automatic fault detection systems that alert operators to potential issues before they become critical.

The durable construction of the GE 2-9720 ensures long-lasting performance and reduced maintenance costs. With its rugged design, the locomotive is well-suited for various railway applications, including freight transport and passenger services. The combination of power, efficiency, and advanced technology makes the GE 2-9720 a popular choice among rail operators looking to enhance their fleets and improve operational performance in today's competitive rail industry.
