Clock (Setup Menu)
Set the clock if you wish to use the TV’s Timer function or schedule
Setting the Clock Automatically
Select the Time Zone and the Daylight Savings (DST)
options for your state. Press 
to select Applies or Ignore. You may then tune to a channel on ANT 1 or ANT 2 that uses Extended Data Service (XDS) time data, typically a PBS channel. With Auto selected, the TV auto- matically retrieves the correct time and date information from this channel.
Be aware that if a channel displays incorrect time informa- tion, it is because of information sent from the broadcaster and is not a defect of the TV.
Note: You may find that some channels send the incor- rect time and the TV clock is reset every time you tune to those channels. To prevent unwanted clock resets, first use the Auto method to set the clock from a channel sending the correct time, then change the method to Manual.
