The VCR allows two ways to set the time and date: the
Auto Clock Feature or manually. The Auto Clock Feature
enables the VCR to set up the clock when the VCR is
turned off.

Auto Clock Set

The Auto Clock Set feature is set to ON at the factory. In the
ON setting, the VCR looks for a channel carrying XDS
(Extended Data Services) information. XDS updates the clock
automatically using the Coordinated Universal Time.
