Using the Timers
The CBX-500/CBX-600UKD has five timers: four pro-
grammable timers for automated playback, and a sleep 
timer for turning the CBX-500/CBX-600UKD 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-500/CBX-600UKD 
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 52.
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
TimerVol. 15
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: 7:00 – 13:00 (This timer has priority.)
Timer 2: 7:00 – 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 a timer has the same Off time as the subsequent timer’s 
On time, the subsequent timer will not work. For exam-
ple:
Timer 1: 0:00 – 1:00
Timer 2: 1:00 – 2:00 (This timer will not work.)
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 51).
Notes:
• The timers work only if the CBX-500/CBX-600UKD 
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.
