Setting the Clock

ote

The DVD+VCR gives you two ways to set the time and date: the Auto Clock Feature or manually. The Auto Clock feature enables the DVD+VCR to set up the clock while the DVD+VCR is turned off.

There are cases where the TV station does not send or sends wrong date and/or time information and the DVD+VCR sets the incorrect time.
