Setting the clock

Due to the earth’s rotation, places to the west of you are behind you in time, and places to the east are ahead of you. Therefore, the earth is divided into 24 hourly time zones. This system is based on a standard time zone called UTC (Universal Time Coordinated), previously known as GMT (Greenwich Mean Time). Short wave stations always give the time according to UTC. Before you set the clock, find out your local time zone.

You can set two different local times. Local time 1 is the time where you live. If, for example, you travel to Hong Kong, you can set the time there as local time 2. The setting for local time 1 is retained.

Setting local time 1

When you first switch on the device, or if it has been without a power supp- ly for a lengthy period, »0: 00« and » « for local time 1 appear in the display to indicate that the clock has to be set.

1With the device switched off, keep pressing » FREQ./CLOCK« until »–: ––« appears in the display and » « flashes.

Note:

If the radio is switched off, press »DISPLAY« to switch the display to the clock, and start at step 1.

2Enter the time using the numerical buttons »1 0« in the correct sequence, for example »12: 30«.

Note:

if you enter the digits incorrectly, a signal sounds and »Err« flashes briefly in the display. You then have to start again.

3Press » FREQ./CLOCK« to confirm the entry.

Setting local time 2

1With the device switched off, press »SW PAGE CLOCK 1/2«.

Display: » « flashes for local time 2.

2Press » FREQ./CLOCK«.

Display: » « stays lit for local time 2.

The display is now set to local time 2.

3To set local time 2, do the same as for local time 1 (steps 1 to 3).

Note:

If you are operating the device in the 12-hour format, you can choose between »MEMO AM/PM« AM and PM.
