The Auto clock function will automatically set the built-
in clock (Month, Day, Year and Time) when the DVD/
VCR is connected to an Antenna or Cable system and it
is turned off. As the DVD/VCR searches for a receivable
station in your area and it receives a broadcast signal
for Auto clock, the Auto clock needs several minutes to
set itself.
Auto clock setting

• If you use a cable box, turn it on.
