AUTOMATIC DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME (D.S.T.) ADJUSTMENT

This VCR is equipped with an internal Automatic Daylight Savings Time Adjustment function. In Spring and Fall, the time is adjusted automatically. This function was preset to ON at the factory. Set the D.S.T. mode in the clock setting screen.

Note: If the timer recording program is affected by the D.S.T. time change, check your TV listing and find out when it reflects the time change. Some TV listings will indicate the time change in the same manner as is programmed in this VCR. But others do not show the time change until the next morning. In that case, when programming a timer, use the CLOCK screen to set the D.S.T. mode to OFF so the time change is not carried out.

Spring — Recording timer programs set between 2:00 AM and 3:00 AM are not carried out.

Fall — Because there will be two time frames from 1:00 AM to 2:00 AM, recording timer programs set between these times are not carried out.
