The DST/Standard Time setting you configure affects only the currently displayed time zone. Other time zones are not affected.

Note that you cannot use the Dual Time Mode to change the DST setting of the Home Time Zone you currently have selected in the Timekeeping Mode. See “To change the Daylight Saving Time (summer time) setting” for information about turning the Home Time Zone DST setting on and off.

The (UTC: Coordinated Universal Time) time zone cannot be switched between Standard Time and Daylight Saving Time.
