Setting custom time zone (MY ZONE) Performing Calculations

For those of us who are not close to one of the 16 major key cities listed on this unit, Datexx has provided the MY ZONE key, which may be customized to your local time and is not affected by automatic Daylight Savings Time adjustments. If DST is desired, this adjustment may be made manually. MY ZONE is the only function not automatically adjusted. The custom time zone can be set by the following steps:

1.Press and hold the MY ZONE key for 3 seconds. The display “Minute” will flash.

2.Press UP or DOWN to adjust time. The time starts at London time and you can adjust time by increments of 30 minutes.
