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