USING THE CLOCK RADIO

Your receiver has two clocks. We rec- ommend you set the primary clock for local time and the secondary clock for UTC (Coordinated Universal Time — formerly called Greenwich Mean Time), because most shortwave sta- tions announce broadcast times in UTC.

The time zone map on the back of the receiver shows the difference in hours between UTC and each time zone. To determine your local time, tune your receiver to a time standard frequency (see “Time Standard Frequencies” on Page 24) and get the current UTC time. Then add or subtract the speci- fied number of hours from UTC time. During Daylight Saving Time, subtract 1 more hour.

SETTING THE CLOCKS

Follow these steps to set each clock. Both clocks display the time in the 24- hour format (0:00–23:59).

1.Repeatedly press the right DUAL TIME button to select the clock

you want to set. appears when the secondary clock is selected and disappears when the primary clock is selected.

2. Press TIME SET. TIME SET flashes on the display.

3.While TIME SET flashes, set the correct time by pressing the number buttons. Do not precede single-digit hours with a 0. For example, enter 930 for 9:30 AM.

If you make a mistake, press C (cancel) to erase the last digit.

Note: If you wait more than 15 seconds to press a button, TIME SET stops flashing and you must begin again at Step 2.

4.Press ENTER. The clock starts running from the time you set.
