Setting the Clock

This DVD/VCR incorporates a 24-hour clock. The clock must be set for the Automatic Timer Recording function to operate correct- ly.

If your DVD/VCR is fitted out with PDC and the PDC signal is available in your area, your DVD/VCR can get the current time from your local PDC broadcast. It keeps track of the time constantly referring to the time broadcasted by your PDC broadcast. If you want to use this feature, refer to “AUTO CLOCK SETTING” in the next section.

–The DVD/VCR refers to the channel which was memorised into position 01. The PDC channel must therefore be set to position 01.

–The clock cannot be set automatically if you are not receiving a channel that car- ries a time signal in your area. In this case, set the clock manually.

–Once the auto clock setting is per- formed, the DVD/VCR will correct the cur- rent time by receiving PDC broadcasts whenever you turn off the DVD/VCR.

–The DVD/VCR will correct the current time automatically at 8:00.

–Between 23:00~1:00, the AUTO CLOCK function does not work even if the DVD/VCR power is turned off.
