YEAR DISPLAY

To see the correct year, depress the TIME and MONTH/DATE buttons together. The small display changes from ‘month/date’ to ‘year’. When you release the TIME and MONTH/DATE buttons the small display returns to month and date.

DAYLIGHT SAVING AND LEAP YEAR ADJUSTMENTS

All Daylight Saving and Leap Year adjustments are made automatically by the SmartSet® internal computer as follows:

Start of Daylight Saving Time: At 1:59.59 AM on the first Sunday in April, the clock will automatically advance to 3:00 AM.

End of Daylight Saving Time: At 2:59.59 AM on the last Sunday in October, the clock will automatically reset to 2:00 AM.

Leap Year: At 12 Midnight on February 28th, the calendar display will change to "2. 29"

MANUAL TIME ADJUSTMENTS

Some people like to set their clocks 5 to 10 minutes fast to make sure that they will always be on time. Even though the SmartSet® sets the time by itself, you still have the option of adjusting the time manually if you wish.

To manually adjust the time display depress and hold the TIME button, and press either the SET + or SET – buttons to adjust the time display ahead or back as desired. Each press of the SET + or SET – buttons will change the display by one minute. If you hold the SET + or SET – buttons the display will continue to change. The display will change slowly at first, one minute at a time. But if you continue holding the SET + or SET – buttons the display will change rapidly.

Note: If you manually adjust the time, your new setting is entered into the SmartSet® memory. If the power is interrupted, the display will return to your new setting, not the original setting, when the power is restored.

ADJUSTING THE WAKE UP TIMES

Your SmartSet® clock radio has two separate alarms that can be set and used independently. You may use the alarms to wake two people at different times, or you may use one alarm for weekdays and the other for weekend wake up times. The procedure for adjusting the wake up time is the same for both Alarm 1 and Alarm 2.
