Setting the Sleep Timer

plays the current CD, tape or MD out, then switches off the system.

or MD is playing in repeat mode
(see p.25), or if a tape is playing
in endless mode (see p.33). If you
select

AUTO

, then subsequently

start playing something in repeat
or endless mode, the sleep timer
will change automatically to the 90
minute setting.

Setting Up a Future Recording

You can set the timer to record something from either the tuner or a component
connected to the AUX/CD-R inputs. For example, you might want to record a
programme on the radio that is broadcast while you're at work. If you're recording
from an auxiliary component it must also be able to switch on at the time the
recording starts — this system can't control it — or you have to leave it switched on
until the recording has finished.

Timer recording works with either the tape deck or the optional MD recorder. During
the actual recording, the volume is automatically set to minimum.
