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 set 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 01 — Atlantic Time

ZONE 02 — Eastern Time

ZONE 03 — Central Time

ZONE 04 — Mountain Time

ZONE 05 — Pacific Time

ZONE 06 — Yukon Time

ZONE 07 — Hawaiian Time

To change the default time zone display, depress the TIME ZONE button. The word “ZONE” appears in the main display, and the number “02” will appear on the month/date display, indicating that the default zone is Zone 02, Eastern Time. Hold the TIME ZONE button and then press either the SET + or SET – 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.
