Using the Timer

The CD receiver has a programmable timer for 
automated playback, and a sleep timer for turning the 
CD receiver off after a specified period.

You can also use the alarm playback function of your 
iPod/iPhone to initiate timer playback on the CD 
receiver.

The timer can be used to start FM/DAB, CD, iPod/USB, 
or LINE playback at a specified time. You could, for 
example, use a timer to turn on the CD receiver every 
morning, just like a radio alarm clock.

Note:

• If iPod is selected as the input source for the timer 

settings, USB will play if only a USB flash drive is 
connected, and iPod/iPhone will play if an iPod/
iPhone is connected.

Notes:

• You must set the clock before you can program the 

timer.

• If you don’t operate any buttons for 5 seconds while 

programming a timer, the procedure will be cancelled 
and the previous display will reappear.

• When the CD receiver is turned on by the timer, 

playback will begin with the most recently received 
station in the case of FM/DAB, the first song in the 
case of a CD or iPod (USB), and the current state of 
the connected device in the case of LINE.

• Only one timer can be set.

1

Prepare the source that you want the timer 
to play.

If you want FM/DAB to play, tune to the station 
you want to hear.
If you want a CD to play, insert the disc.
For an iPod/iPhone, place it in the dock. If you’re 
using a USB flash drive rather than an iPod/iPhone, 

disconnect the iPod/iPhone from the iPod dock 
(see page 30).
If you want to play a device connected to LINE, 
make settings on the connected device so that it 
will start playing when the timer operates.

2

Press the [TIMER] button repeatedly until 
“Timer XX” appears.

“XX” indicates the source that was last selected for 
timer playback.

3

Use the arrow [

]/[

] buttons to select the 

source, and then press [ENTER].

You can select the following sources:
CD, iPod (USB), FM/DAB, LINE.
In the display, “TIMER” and a number indication 
will blink according to the input source you’ve 
selected.
The number will be “1” for FM/DAB, “2” for CD, 
“3” for iPod (USB), and “4” for LINE.

4

Use the arrow [

]/[

] buttons to specify the 

“hour” at which you want the timer to play, 
and then press [ENTER].

5

Use the arrow [

]/[

] buttons to specify the 

“minute” at which you want to timer to play, 
and then press [ENTER].

6

Use the arrow [

]/[

] buttons to select 

“Timer On,” and then press the [ENTER] 
button.

When a timer is turned on, its TIMER and number 
appears on the display.
If there is no operation for several seconds, the 
setting will be made with the currently-shown 
content.
The display will return to its previous state except 
for “TIMER” and the number of the selected input 
source; the timer is now set.

7

Press the [

 ON/STANDBY] button or the 

remote controller’s [

] button to set the CD 

receiver to Standby.
