Using the Timers
Setting the SLEEP Timer
Use the Sleep Timer to turn the System off after a certain number
of minutes . By setting the Sleep Timer, you can fall asleep to music
and know that your System will turn off by itself rather than play
all night.
• You can only set the Sleep Timer when the System is on.

you have set.

maining sleep time is displayed. Wait until the display returns to
the original display.
To Cancel the SLEEP Timer Setting:
Press the SLEEP button on the Remote Control until the “SLEEP”

• When the REC Timer or the DAILY Timer has turned
the system on, SLEEP Timer can not be set.
Timer Priority
Since REC Timer and DAILY Timer can be set independently, you
may wonder what happens if the settings overlap. Here are the pri-
orities for REC Timer and DAILY Timer:
• Timer with the earlier time setting will have the priority.
Timer will not operate when other Timer is operating.
• If other Timer is set to an exact same time as the REC Timer,
the REC Timer will have the priority.
❏
REC Timer and DAILY Timer will not operate when SLEEP
Timer is operating.
