USING THE DUAL TIME FEATURE

Your receiver has two clocks.  We recommend you set the primary clock for
local time and the secondary clock for UTC (universal time coordinate --
also called Greenwich mean time).

Setting the Clocks

Follow these steps to set each clock.  Both clocks display the time in
military format (0:00-23:59).

1.  Press the right DUAL TIME button to display the clock you want to set.

    The secondary clock symbol appears or disappears to show you which
    display you are viewing.

2.  Press TIME SET.  TIME SET flashes on the display.

3.  While TIME SET flashes, set the correct time by pressing the number
    buttons.  For example, enter 930 for 9:30.

    If you make a mistake, press C (cancel) to erase the last digit.

    NOTE:  If you wait more than 15 seconds to press a button, TIME SET
           stops flashing and you must begin again at Step 2.

4.  Press ENTER.

Changing the Clock Display

To change the clock display, press the right DUAL TIME button.

The secondary clock symbol appears or disappears to show you which display
you are viewing.

To briefly change the clock display, press and hold down the left DUAL
TIME button.  Release the left DUAL TIME button to return to the previous
clock display.

USING THE ALARM (STANDBY) FEATURE

You can set an alarm so that a buzzer sounds or the radio turns on at a
specified time.

The alarm sounds when the display shows the alarm time -- regardless of
whether the display shows the primary or secondary clock.  If you use the
alarm feature, be sure the clock display is set for the correct display
when the alarm time arrives.

For example, you can use the alarm to remind you to tune to a foreign
broadcast.  Set the secondary clock to UTC, set the alarm for the UTC
broadcast time, and be sure the display shows the secondary clock.

Setting the Alarm Time

Follow these steps to set the alarm time.  This also turns on the alarm.

1.  Press STANDBY.  STANDBY flashes on the display and the current alarm
    time appears.

2.  While STANDBY flashes, press the number buttons to enter the alarm
    time.

    If you make a mistake, press C (cancel) to erase the last digit.

    NOTE:  If you wait more than 15 seconds to press a button, STANDBY
           stops flashing and you must begin again at Step 1.

3.  Press ENTER.

    STANDBY stops flashing.  For a few seconds, the new alarm setting
    remains on the display.  Then, the clock display returns.

Selecting Buzzer/Radio

Set STANDBY BUZZER/RADIO as follows:

BUZZER:  The buzzer sounds at the alarm time.

 RADIO:  The receiver turns on at the alarm time.

Silencing the Alarm

When the display shows the alarm time, the radio turns on or the buzzer
sounds and the sleep indicator flashes on the display.

After several seconds, the buzzer's volume increases.  After a few more
seconds, the volume increases again.

To silence the buzzer or turn off the receiver, press POWER.  The flashing
sleep indicator disappears.  (The buzzer automatically stops or the
receiver automatically turns off after 60 minutes.

Turning the Alarm Off/On

To turn off the alarm, press STANDBY.  While STANDBY flashes, press C.

To turn the alarm on again, press STANDBY.  While STANDBY flashes, press
ENTER.

USING THE SLEEP TIMER

The sleep timer sets the receiver to turn off after 60 minutes so that you 
can fall asleep as you listen to the receiver.  Follow these steps to set 
the sleep timer.

1.  If the receiver is on, press POWER to turn off the receiver.

2.  Press SLEEP.  The receiver turns on, and the sleep indicator appears
    on the display.

3.  Select the band and frequency.

    After 60 minutes, the receiver turns off.  To turn off the receiver
    sooner, press POWER.
