Auto-Set Time and Date Settings

This model is equipped with the Auto-Set feature, meaning that the time and date settings have been programmed at the factory and will already be set when you first plug the model in. Auto-Set will automatically adjust the time and date settings for daylight-saving time and leap years. Auto-Set is programmed for Eastern Standard Time; if you do not live in this time zone, you can easily switch the setting to one of six other time zones.
