Daylight Savings Time (DST)
The WWVB radio signal adjusts for day- light saving time so the time displayed on the clock is accurate, regardless of the time of year. When the signal contains
DST information, 
appears.
Hint: If you are in an area that does not use daylight saving time, press MODE five times then press DOWN once to set your local time (city) to one time zone west of where you are located. When DST ends, reset the clock to your city’s usual time zone.
RESETTING YOUR LOCAL TIME ZONE
The clock radio is preset to the Pacific Standard (LAX) time zone.
Follow these steps to select a different local time zone if you have already set a time zone.
Note: The time zone you set will take ef- fect the next time the clock synchronizes with WWVB.
1.Select a city in your time zone from the chart at the end of this section.
Note: Time zones designated by their UTC number indicate that no known city exists in that part of the globe. Typically these zones include major sections of ocean.
2.Press MODE five times. The cur- rently selected city flashes while the time setting disappears.
