14 Setting the Clock

There are four ways to set the VCR’s clock: Manually, with Time Zone Selection, with Manual PBS Channel Selection, or with Automatic PBS Channel Selection. Cable Box/DSS Receiver users must set the clock manually. Before you set the clock, make sure:

The VCR power is on.

The VCR light appears on the display panel. If it does not, press the VCR/TV button once.

Channels are programmed. Details are on page 12.

You make each entry within one minute of the previous entry. To set the clock manually, follow the steps on this page. To use Time Zone Selection, go to page 15. To use Manual PBS Channel selection, go to page 16. To use Automatic PBS Channel Selection, go to page 17.

Helpful Hints

If the numbers entered do not match the VCR’s internal calendar, the entry will be rejected and a question mark (?) will appear on- screen.

To program the VCR so its clock will automatically move forward one hour in April and turn back one hour in October, see page 18.

Enter a 0 before single digit num- bers.

To make corrections, press the CLEAR button until the space for the number you want to correct is flashing. Then enter the correct

number.
