To check the standby time

Hold down STANDBY MEMORY a or b with the radio turned off. The preset standby time is displayed while the button is pressed.

To change the standby timeRepeat steps 4 to 6 and preset a new standby time.To cancel the standby function

Press STANDBY MEMORY a or b with the radio turned off so that “STANDBY” “a” or “b” is cleared from the display.

Make sure to release the button within a second. If the button is pressed for longer than a second, the radio goes to step 5.

At the standby time

The radio turns on, “SLEEP” lights up, and the preset broadcast station is tuned in. The radio turns off after about 60 minutes.

Notes

•The Standby function is activated when the currently displayed time, whether in LOCAL or WORLD display mode, reaches the standby time. Make sure, therefore, that the time display is in the mode of your choice.

•If a station was already stored to the STANDBY MEMORY button, the previous preset station is overwritten by the new preset. If the preset

label had been edited, it will return to the following default; a = “STBY-a”

b = “STBY-b”

To change labels, see “Editing labels”, page 36.

•Make sure that the radio is turned off before setting the standby time. You cannot set the standby time with the radio turned on.

Tips

•To temporarily cancel the Standby function, turn off the radio and slide HOLD in the direction of the arrow so that “H” is displayed. The standby timer goes back to effect when HOLD is turned off (“H” is cleared from the display). See “Using the hold function”, page 42.

•Once the standby presets are set, the radio turns on at the preset time everyday unless the standby status is canceled (see “To cancel the standby function”, above). Canceling the standby status does not erase the standby setting itself. The setting can be put back to the standby

status by pressing STANDBY MEMORY a or b with the radio turned off so that “STANDBY” “a” or “b” is lit in the display.

•If the standby memory is in standby status, it takes effect even when you are listening to the radio. The radio switches to the preset standby frequency at the standby time.

•You can set both STANDBY memories to the standby status at the same time (i.e., both the a and b indicators are lit in the display). The radio turns on at the first standby time to receive the first standby frequency, then switches to the second standby frequency at the second standby time.

•If both STANDBY memories are set to the same standby time, STANDBY a takes precedence.
