Setting Time/Date (TIME&DATE)

If you have set the time and date, information as to when an audio file is recorded is stored automatically with that file. The time and date should be set to ease file management tasks. Also, it is required when performing timer recording and alarm playback.

The hour indicator will flash automatically when you load batteries before using the recorder for the first time, or after the recorder hasn’t been used for a long time. Proceed from step 1.
