does the radio have an automatic off function? for example the Sangean pocket radio automatically turns off after 90 minutes.

This radio has programmable auto-off function for 120, 90, 60, 30 and 15 minutes. To do this, simply holding down the Power button for two or three seconds and display the options you choose.

The radio does not shut off after a fixed period of time but it can be set to shut off after a period of time selected by the user --a function sometimes called a sleep timer.

Until you turn it off. It doesn't have a built-in timer function to turn off automatically.

I used mine for several months with light use. It doesn't seem to turn off automatically for me, but now that I think about it I can't remember if it's supposed to. In general I have no complaints about the battery life, or anything really. I like mine a lot and would consider it one of my best buys.

Yes. Just as with any other device you need to turn it on. Once it realizes there is no more Bluetooth connection, it auto turns off after about 5 minutes, too.

You can set the radio to auto turn off for any amount of minutes you prefer.

Yes, it does have an auto shut-off feature. I'm not sure what the timings are but the feature is there.

No. It does not automatically turn off. It is all manual on & off operation.

After accidentally unplugging the radio and wondering why the radio kept turning off, I can approximate a time. A couple of months running the radio maybe 1-2 hours a day. Recently the radio kept turning itself off and we were getting a low volt message. I am surprised how long the radio ran on only batteries.

I know you can use the sleep function from the iPod and it will shut off, not sure about the radio.

No. Never had a problem with this. It does have a shut off after 45 minutes. We like the radio, love the size.Easy to operate in the dark while in the tent.

I don't think so. It automatically shuts off completely, even the radio, after about 1 hr. 45 minutes or so in the morning when using the alarm feature.

You hold both the button on the side and the TIMER button at the same time for about 5 seconds. The display will show play, continue holding, it will then turn off automatically. You can then stop holding the buttons.

Okay - it does turn off evenutually, but it does go one for a while before doing so. At least 30 seconds, I gave up listening to it.

No. But the batteries last a really long time. This is the best pocket-sized radio I have ever owned.

I never turned it off, but found that I had to turn it on almost every time I got in the car. I used it to stream Pandora and liked the sound and the ability to skip tracks using the buttons. However, having to hold the button down for 5 seconds to turn it on got to be annoying very quickly. I searched the Internet to see if there was a modification or setting so that it would turn on automatically when power is applied, but could not find a solution so I've stopped using it in the car.
