playback, press ► to start playback, then go to
Step 4.
• If you want to specify the time for both start and
end of playback, go to Step 4.
4 Set TIMER on the deck to PLAY.
5 Set the timer as required.
• When you have set the time for the start of
playback, the deck turns off. When the specified
time arrives, the deck turns on and starts playing.
• When you have set the time for the end of
playback, playback continues. When the specified
time arrives, the deck stops playing and turns off.
• When you have set the time for both the start and
end of playback, the deck turns off. When the
starting time arrives, the deck turns on and starts
playing. When the ending time arrives, the deck
stops playing and turns off.
6 After you have finished using the timer, set TIMER
on the deck to OFF.
Note
You can select Program Play in Step 2. Note, however, that
programs eventually fade away when the standby status is off,
and therefore if you set the time too far in the future, the
program may be gone when the specified time arrives. If this
has occurred, the deck enters normal play mode at the
specified time and the tracks play in consecutive order.
