To enjoy the desired source after the timer setting is completed
The volume level (for play timer) and music source are stored in the
timer memory and the timer will start in these preset conditions.
However, the Disc numbers and reverse mode (for SC-AK77) do not
get stored in the timer memory.
1. After step 4, start playing the desired source.
2. Reset the Disc numbers and reverse mode (for SC-AK77) if you
have changed any of them, confirm that a Disc or cassette is
inserted, then press [f/7, POWER] to put the unit on standby.
Notes
•
If you switch the system to the standby mode while the play/record
timer is functioning, the OFF time setting will not be activated.

If “AUX 1/2” (SC-AK66 and SC-AK62: “AUX”) or “ 6CH INPUT” is
selected as the source, when the timer comes ON, the system will
turn ON and will engage “AUX 1/2” (SC-AK66 and SC-AK62: “AUX”)
or “ 6CH INPUT” as the source. If you want to playback or record
from a connected component, set the component’s timer to the
same time. (See the instruction manual that came with the
component.)
