Setting the clock

Using the Auto Clock Set feature

Some TV and cable channels transmit time signals with their broadcasts. Your VCR can pick up this time signal to automatically set the clock.

The Auto Clock Set feature works only if a channel in your area is broadcasting a time signal. If broadcasters in your area are not yet sending time signals, set the time manually (page 37).

Before you start….

*Turn on the VCR and the TV.

*Set the TV to the VCR channel (channel 3 or 4). If your TV is connected to the VCR using A / V connections, set the TV to video input.

*Press TV / VIDEO to display the VIDEO indicator in the VCR's display window.

*Press INPUT SELECT so that a channel number appears in the VCR's display window.
