The compact clock radio has numerous alarm and playback functions. A total of three different alarm routines can be saved, for example for weekdays or weekends. The audio source can either be the last radio station listened to, a saved radio station or a simple buzzer. The alarm duration in minutes and the desired volume can also be set in advance.

The radio alarm clock's large display not only shows all the important information such as time, date, alarm functions, etc., it can also be set to a total of five brightness levels. Particularly practical: the low light mode, which reduces the display to minimum brightness in standby mode and thus ensures an undisturbed night's sleep.

Thanks to the user-friendly menu buttons on the top, operating the clock radio is simple and easy. Both the on/off button for the alarm function and the snooze button for interrupting the alarm can also be felt in the dark. The menu language can be set to five other languages in addition to English.

Given its compact size, the CR-ST40DAB with its 2 x 3 watt DSP amplifier has a big sound. It delivers a pleasant stereo sound that can be adapted to personal taste with four selectable DSP settings (normal/pop/rock/jazz).
