Tips
You'll need to set the clock when first hooking up your VCR, and any time the power goes out for more than 1 hour. When you first plug in the VCR or after a power outage, the clock display will read
Auto clock set function
This function sets the VCR's clock automatically when the VCR is tuned to a station which transmits a time signal together with TV programs.
It also automatically sets the time differences between various time zones and sets the time during Daylight Saving Time (D.S.T). The auto clock set function operates each time the VCR is turned off.
•Some broadcast stations may not transmit a time signal. The auto clock set function does not operate when the VCR is tuned to a station which does not transmit a time signal. In this case, set the clock manually (See page 22).
•When the clock is set automatically, the displayed time may drift from the current time by up to one minute.
