Notes:

•After you have selected your time zone and set the date and time, when you travel to another time zone, there is no need to reset the date and time. Just set the time zone to your destination and the camcorder’s clock will automatically change to display the correct time for your destination.

•The camcorder automatically accounts for the number of days in a month and leap year.
