TIME AND DATE

The VCR gives you two ways to set the time and date: the Auto Clock Feature or manually. The Auto Clock Feature enables the VCR to update the clock each time the VCR is turned off. The Auto Clock is advantageous because it updates the time for you automatically.

Before you set the time and date, set the Auto DST (Daylight- Saving Time) feature to ON or OFF for your area.

Auto Clock Set Feature

The Auto Clock Set feature is set to ON at the factory. In the ON setting, the VCR looks for a channel carrying XDS (Extended Data Services) information. XDS updates the clock using the Coordinated Universal Time. To use this automatic feature, certain steps are required such as Auto Channel Search, setting the time zone, and setting the Daylight Saving feature before the Auto Clock feature works.

Set the Time Zone

1.Press MENU on the remote control to display the VCR Main Menu.

Selecting Channels

The Channel up and down buttons access those channels active in your VCR channel list.

You can still access channels not on the channel list by using the number buttons on the remote control.
