Spring forward; Fall back

In the Spring, Daylight-Savings begins on the first Sunday in April. Because the clock automatically changes from 2 a.m. to 3 a.m. (forward one hour), remember to include the extra hour for timer recordings falling within this time frame.

In the Autumn, Daylight-Savings ends on the last Sunday in October. The VCR clock automatically changes from 2 a.m. to 1 a.m. (back one hour). Therefore, it can affect your recording length.
