Hi everyone, I had just bought a beocenter 2300 from ebay few weeks ago. Looking through the whole manual, I cant find anything related on how to switch on the timer function. Allow me to ask a silly question, does beocenter 2300 got any timer function at all, if yes, how can I switch it on?? 

Thanks for helping me out if possible........^^

As far as I am aware, there is only a stop timer in the 2300 which allows you to set the radio to switch off after a variety of times. This bis activated by pressing Radio then Stop a number of times - the desired time is shown on the display. Probably not what you wanted to hear. Sorry.

I'm surprised to read that BC2300 has a sleep timer, as this is excactly what I was looking for on this unit, because I often hear radio to fall asleep and nothing is more unpleasant than playing the radio the whole night long.

I will try sleep function as soon as I got home from work 🙂

I also have a dim memory that if the set is two way, there may be some chance of programming. I may however be wrong here. I attach the sleep timer page.

2 way is possible - check for 2 sensors on the lower part.

You need a BL 7000 or BL 5000 to use it...

Thanks a lot Peter for your help.

Oh....but really a bit disappointing on that!  I got a timer funcion with my beocenter 9500, which I normally use it as my alarm clock. Now may be I need to switch back to my old set up, and this 2300 can go to another room may be.

On the Beocenter 2500, which is similar, the timer can only be programmed via a 2 way remote.

If you have a recent Beovision then, the Beovision can be used to start the radio or CD at a certain time.
