OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
SETTING THE TIME, THE FIRST TIME
Important: The first time you connect your new SmartSet® clock radio to the AC outlet the internal computer will automatically set the time correctly for the Eastern Time Zone, which is the initial default setting. The display will scan for a few seconds and then show the correct month, date, day and time in the Eastern zone. If you live in the Eastern Time zone, there’s nothing else to do. Your clock is set correctly and running.
If you do not live in the Eastern Time zone you must change the default zone display to your own zone. You only do this one time and the SmartSet® will remember the new default zone setting and will always return to that setting after a power interruption
There are 7 time zones programmed into your SmartSet® clock radio as follows:
Zone 1 | — | Atlantic Time |
Zone 2 | — | Eastern Time |
Zone 3 | — | Central Time |
Zone 4 | — | Mountain Time |
Zone 5 | — | Pacific Time |
Zone 6 | — | Yukon Time |
Zone 7 | — | Hawaiian Time |
To change the default time zone display, depress the Time Zone button. The number “2” will appear on the display indicating that the default zone is Zone 2, Eastern Time. Hold the Time Zone button and then press either the Up or Down buttons until your own time zone appears on the display, then release the buttons. The clock display will change to the correct time in the time zone you selected. The clock will always return to the correct time in the zone you selected after every power interruption. If you move to a different time zone, simply change the default zone display to the new zone and the SmartSet® will remember that setting for you.
DATE DISPLAY
To see the correct date at any time, depress the Date button. The display changes from time to month and date (MM/DD). For example, May 21st will appear as
“5 21”. When you release the Date button the display returns to the correct time.
