 During shipment and your first use, a clock 

error may occur. In this case, refer to “Setting 
the clock manually” to set the correct time.

This unit automatically adjusts for daylight 
saving time (summer time). “DST” automatically 
appears on the display at the beginning of 
daylight saving time (summer time), and 
disappears at the end of daylight saving time 
(summer time).

 Daylight saving time (summer time) begins 

at 2:00 AM on the second Sunday of March.

 Standard time begins at 2:00 AM on the first 

Sunday of November. 

 The implementation of DST/summer time 

and its beginning/ending date and time are 
subject to circumstances and laws in each 
country/region. Should this interfere with the 
desired adjustment, cancel the Automatic 
DST/summer time adjustment and set the 
clock manually as necessary. Customers 
living in a country/region that does not use 
daylight saving time (summer time) should 
cancel the Automatic DST/summer time 
adjustment before using the unit.

 When Hawaii Standard Time is set, the 

default Automatic DST/summer time 
adjustment setting is off.

The Automatic DST/summer time 
adjustment can be canceled.

Press and hold 

DST for more than 3 

seconds while the clock is displayed.

A beep sounds, and “Aut

on the display to show that the Automatic 
DST/summer time adjustment has been 
canceled. The clock display returns.

Press and hold 

DST for more than 3 

seconds. A beep sounds, and “Aut

 To set the radio alarm, first tune to a station 

and adjust the volume. (See “Playing the 
radio.”)

 Set 

ALARM A (or B) to the desired 

alarm sound

 (RADIO or BUZZ).

When setting 

The alarm time appears for a few seconds,

SET ALARM TIME + or – 

repeatedly to set the desired time 
while the alarm time appears on the 
display. 

While setting the alarm time, “A” (or “B”) 
flashes on the display. 

When the alarm time setting operation is 
complete, the clock display returns after a 
few seconds and “A” (or “B”) changes from 
flashing to fully lit.
At the set time, the radio will turn on, or the 
buzzer will sound gradually increasing in

TIME + or – is pressed, “OFF” appears on the 
display for about 0.5 seconds.

 If a second alarm sounds during a first (or 

the snooze function is active), the second 
alarm takes priority.

unavailable while the alarm is sounding or 
the snooze function is turned on.

 If the same alarm time is set for both ALARM 

A and ALARM B, ALARM A takes priority.

 If no operation is performed while the alarm 

is sounding, the alarm will stop after about 
60 minutes.

The frequency of the current radio 
station is displayed as a rough guide.

There is a tactile dot beside 

VOLUME + to show the direction to go to turn up the 

volume.

 The alarm function works as usual on the 

first and last day of daylight saving time 
(summer time). When Automatic DST/
summer time adjustment is set, if the alarm 
is set for a time that is skipped when daylight 
saving time (summer time) begins, the alarm 
is skipped, or if the alarm is set for a time 
that overlaps the end of daylight saving time 
(summer time), the alarm sounds twice.

In the event of a power interruption, the alarm 
functions work until the battery is fully 
discharged. But certain functions will be 
affected as follows:

stops temporarily, and buzzes again after 
about five minutes if neither 

BRIGHTNESS nor ALARM RESET/OFF is 
pressed while the alarm is buzzing.  
If the alarm buzzes and stops (either 
automatically after 1 minute or by pressing 
SNOOZE/BRIGHTNESS) five times, the alarm 
is automatically reset in the case of a power 
interruption. The alarm will buzz for 
30 minutes after power is restored if it is 
restored within 60 minutes of the alarm time.

 If you press SNOOZE/BRIGHTNESS while the 

alarm is sounding, the snooze time is set to 
10 minutes. During a power failure, the 
snooze time cannot be set to more than 
10 minutes.

 If “” appears on the display, the alarm will

This unit contains a CR2032 battery as a backup 
power source to keep the clock and the alarm 
operating during a power interruption. (No 
Power No Problem system)

When the battery is discharged, “

” appears 

on the display.
If a power interruption occurs while the battery 
is discharged, the current time and alarm will 
be erased.

 If “AM 12:00” flashes on the display when the 

unit is connected to an AC outlet for the first 
time, the battery may be discharged. In this 
case, consult your nearest Sony dealer.

  Keep the AC plug connected to the 

wall outlet and remove the battery 
compartment on the bottom of the 
unit by pulling it up while sliding the 
tab. (See Fig. 

-.)

  Insert a new battery into the battery 

compartment with the 

 side facing 

up.

To remove the battery from the battery 
compartment, push it out from the side 
marked 

PUSH. (See Fig. 

-.)

  Insert the battery compartment back 

into the unit along the groove and 
push it from above until it clicks. (See 
Fig. 

-.)

The tab locks the battery compartment.

 Press 

RADIO to remove “” from the 

display.

 When you replace the battery, do not 

disconnect the AC plug from the wall outlet.
Otherwise, the current date, current time and 
alarm will be erased.

 If the unit will be left unplugged for a long 

time, remove the battery to avoid any 
damage that may be caused by leakage or 
corrosion.

Should any problems persist after you have 
made the following checks, consult your 
nearest Sony dealer.

 The battery is discharged. Remove the old 

battery and insert a new one.

 The AC power cord functions as an FM 

antenna. Extend the AC power cord fully to 
increase reception sensitivity.

 Rotate the unit horizontally for optimum 

reception. A ferrite bar AM antenna is built 
into the unit.

 Do not operate the unit over a steel desk or 

metal surface, as this may lead to 
interference.

 Check that “A” or “B” appears on the display.

 Adjust the volume using VOLUME +/–.

 Make sure the clock is set correctly.
 When “Aut  On” appears on the display 

after pressing and holding 

DST for more than 

3 seconds, the Automatic DST/summer time 
function becomes active.
