• SET THE CLOCK
Your phone contains a real-time clock that can be set two different ways: the clock can
use the time and date information provided by the wireless system, or it can be set
manually.
The clock will display the current time and date on the Start screen. You can also choose
to hide the clock if you prefer. Please see “Displaying or hiding the clock” on page 43.”
Note: Your phone also has an alarm clock. See “Use the alarm clock” on
page63. for more information.
By default, the clock gets its information from the wireless network. If you wish to
override the network clock, do the following:
Manually setting the clock
1Press Menu 4-3-1 (Settings > Time settings > Clock).
2Scroll to Set the time, then press Select.
3Enter the current time, then press Select.
For example, to enter 7:30, enter 0730.
4Scroll to am or pm, then press OK.
Selecting time format
1Press Menu 4-3-1 (Settings > Time settings > Clock).
2Scroll to Time format, then press Select.
3Scroll to either 24-hour or am/pm, then press Select.
Allow the network to set the clock
1Press Menu 4-3-3 (Settings > Time settings > Auto-update of date and time).
2Scroll to On (or Confirm first), then press Select. Selecting the On option will set
your phone clock to be automatically updated by your network. Selecting Confirm
first will prompt the network to ask you if you want the date and time updated
before it is updated.
Important: If you use the Auto-update of date and time option while outside
your digital network, you may be prompted to enter your own time manually
(see “Manually setting the clock” on page43). Network time will replace the time
and date you set once you re-enter your digital network.
Note: If your battery has been removed or has drained outside the digital
network, you may be prompted to enter your own time (once the battery is
replaced/recharged, and you’re still outside of the digital network).
