CLOCK SET UP
(AUTO / MANUAL)
Set the clock accurately for proper automatic timer recording. If the Public Broadcasting Station (PBS) is available in your area, follow “AUTO CLOCK SET- TING”. If it is not, follow “MANUAL CLOCK SET- TING”.
AUTO CLOCK SETTING
You can have the TV/DVD/VHS set the clock auto- matically by using the Public Broadcasting Station (PBS) channel in your area. Once you have set the clock by using the following procedure, the TV/DVD/VHS will automatically monitor the correct time and date being broadcast by the PBS station in your area, using a new service called Extended Data Service (XDS).
Make sure ...
•TV/DVD/VHS power must be turned on.
•Confirm that the antenna connections are correct.
•The cable converter box must be turned on if your TV/DVD/VHS is connected directly to it. (See NOTES:)
•The channel is properly set in advance. (See page 16.)
NOTES:
•Auto clock setting only needs to be set once. But it can be done again if the clock’s time has become incorrect for some reason.
•If the TV/DVD/VHS is connected directly to a cable converter box or satellite box, the local PBS station must be selected on the cable box itself, and the TV/DVD/VHS must be set to the output chan- nel of the cable converter box or satellite box (usu- ally channel 3 or 4), to be able to set up or correct the clock automatically.
If you do not know what your local PBS station is, then follow “Manual Clock Settings” on page 18. The TV/DVD/VHS cannot control the channels of the cable converter box or satellite box.

•if the time, that is automatically set by this selected PBS station is incorrect, it may not be your local PBS station, but one from a different time zone.
