TIME ZONE OPTIONS

Time zones around the world are identified by how many hours they are offset from the Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). US time zones are 5 to 10 hours behind the Greenwich Mean Time. The main unit is pre- set to Pacific Standard Time (PST). Adjust the GMT Difference according to which time zone you live in order to obtain accurate time from the U.S. Atomic Clock (→ p.18).

NOTE	The U.S. Atomic Clock automatically adjusts for Daylight
	Savings during the year. However, if Daylight Savings is not
	applicable in your area, you may instead want to manually
	set the time and disable the U.S. Atomic Clock (→ p.18).
