Using the Timers
The CBX-300 has five timers: four programmable timers
for automated playback, and a sleep timer for turning the
CBX-300 off after a specified period.
The timers can be used to start FM, AM, CD, or iPod
playback at a specified time. You could, for example,
use a timer to turn on the CBX-300 every morning, just
like a radio alarm clock.
The various settings for the four programmable timers
are explained here. For details on the sleep timer, see
page 47.
Repeat Timers
Each timer can be programmed to work just once
(Once), every week (Every), every day (Everyday), or on
a range of days (Days Set).
■
Once
The timer will work just once.
■
Every
The timer will work every week on the specified day and
time.
• Everyday
The timer will work every day.
•Days Set
The timer will work on the specified range of days. With
this setting, you could set up a morning alarm for Mon-
day to Friday.
Timer Example
To wake up to your favorite radio station (preset #1)
every morning, you could program a timer as follows:
Snooze On
➔
FM
➔
#1
➔
Every
➔
Everyday
➔
On 7:00
➔
Off
7:30
If you want a radio alarm only on weekdays, select Days
Set instead of Everyday and specify MON–FRI.
Timer Priority
If two or more timers are set to the same On time, the
lowest numbered timer has priority. For example:
Timer 1:
07:00 – 13:00 (This timer has priority.)
Timer 2:
07:00 – 12:30
If two or more timers overlap, the timer with the earliest
start time has priority. For example:
Timer 1:
9:00 – 10:00
Timer 2:
8:00 – 10:00 (This timer has priority.)
If the On and Off times of two timers are the same, the
timer with the earliest start time has priority and the
other timer will fail. For example:
Timer 1:
0:00 – 1:00 (This timer has priority.)
Timer 2:
1:00 – 2:00
Timer Indicators
When a timer has been set, the
TIMER indicator and the number
of the timer appear on the display.
When a timer has been set for
snooze, an underscore appears
below its number (see page 46).
Notes:
• The timers work only if the CBX-300 is on Standby. If
it’s on when a timer is supposed to start playback,
nothing will happen.
• While timed playback is in progress, the timer’s Off
time cannot be changed.
