Using the Timers

There are three timers available — Daily Timer, Recording
Timer, and Sleep Timer.
Before using the timers, you need to set the clock built in the
unit. (See “Setting the Clock” on page 9.)

Using Daily Timer

With Daily Timer, you can wake to your favorite music or
radio program. You can set the timer whether the unit is on or
off.
How Daily Timer actually works
The unit automatically turns on, set the volume level to the
preset level, and starts playing the specified source when the
on-time comes (the indicator flashes while the timer is
operating). Then, when the off-time comes, the unit
automatically turns off (stands by).
The timer setting remains in memory until you change it.
• There is a time limit in doing the following steps. If the
setting is canceled before you finish, start from step 1
again.
• If you have made a mistake while setting timer, press
CANCEL. (However, this does not always work. If
CANCEL does not work, press CLOCK/TIMER repeatedly
and start from step 1 again.)
Before you start...
