Using the Timers
The timers lets you control recording and listening functions auto-
matically.
Three types of timers are available:
DAILY Timer
Use this timer to set wake up everyday to music from any
source, instead of an alarm clock.
REC (Recording) Timer
Unattended recording of radio broadcasts. You can set the
starting time and length of the recording.
SLEEP Timer
Fall asleep and have your System turn off automatically after
a certain length of time.
Setting the Clock
When you plug the AC power cord into the wall outlet, the time in-
dication “0:00” blinks on the display.
You can set the clock whether the System is on or off.
• The clock must be correctly set for the timers to work.
• Each setting step must be completed within approx. two
minutes. Otherwise, the setting is cleared and must be re-
peated from the beginning.
• The clock may gain or lose one to two minutes per month.
Using the Unit

The hour digit of the time indication blinks on the display.
• If the clock is already set and “0:00” is not blinking, press
the CLOCK/TIMER button repeatedly until clock setting
display appears on the display. (In the clock setting display,
the hour digits of the current clock blink on the display. )
