Activating and setting the clock The S70 Remote Control also has a clock built-in, which gives you extra facilities such as Sleep Timer and Timer function. For these to function, you need to activate and set the clock: · From the Main Menu, press the button next to "SYSTEM". · In the System Set-up Menu, activate the clock by pressing the button next to "CLOCK"; a tick mark will appear to indicate that the clock has been activated. · Press the button next to "CLOCK" for 2 seconds · The Clock Set-up Menu allows for adjusting the clock. Use the 24-hour format to enter the correct time (for example, 2:15PM would be 14:15) by pressing the buttons next to "HR+" (to adjust hours upwards), "HR-" (adjust hours downwards), "MIN +" (adjust minutes upwards), "MIN -" (adjust minutes downwards). · Press the button next to "EXIT" to return to System Set-up Menu. · Press the button next to "EXIT" to return to Main Menu.

USING THE NAD S70 REMOTE CONTROL The NAD S70 is a "menu-driven" remote control, where many of its buttons vary in function, depending on which Menu was selected. The display next to these buttons indicates which functions are available. In normal operation, the Main Menu is the starting point. Figure No. 1 shows how the menus are organised. The Volume Control, Mute and On/Off buttons will always perform the same function, regardless of whichever Menu was selected. The display will always turn itself off, 25 seconds after the last button has been pressed, to prolong battery life. Pressing any button, other than the volume buttons, will activate the display again. On/Off Press this button to switch components from the Operating to the Stand-by mode and vice versa. As this is a toggle command, switching between Stand-by and Operating mode, you may consider to switch all components to operating mode so that using On/Off button on the S70 all components are synchronised in status: Press the power button on the front panel of each remote controlled Silver Series component so that all are turned on and in Operating mode. [. . . ] Main Menu: Viewing Timer status The S70 can be used to turn your system on and off at specific times with the Timer function. To set, activate or de-activate the Timer function, refer to chapter "Setting and activating the Timer". This way, you can use your system as an alarm clock, for instance. Before the Timer function can be set, it needs to be activated: · From the Main Menu, press the button next to "SYSTEM". [. . . ]
