Setting the Clock

There are two ways to set the clock. With manual clock setting, you tell the VCR the current time. The VCR then adjusts the time accordingly. With automatic clock setting, the VCR gets the current time from your local PBS station. It keeps track of the time by constantly referring to the time broadcasted by your PBS station.

Follow the instructions under either man-

ual clock setting or automatic clock set- ting (page 11) to set the VCR's clock. Make sure:

eThe VCR is hooked up and turned on, and channels are programmed into the VCR's memory.

The VCR is in VCR position (see pages 13, 15-16).

You make each entry within 60 seconds of the previous entry (otherwise, the VCR will exit Clock Set mode and you will have to start over).

You have correctly chosen TV or CABLE TV at the TUNER SET UP menu.
