Notes on summer time on this recorder
The recording system of this recorder always conforms to its own actual clock even at the moment it gains or loses 1 hour of
shift to/from summer time. Therefore, there may be some inconsistency in the display's digits or actual operations on that
occasion. For example, on the first Sunday in April, a programmed recording from 1:00 a.m. to 4:00 a.m. will actually be
recorded from 1:00 a.m. to 3:00 a.m. Be sure to give a careful consideration to your setting or reading on-screen if a
recording period includes the moment of time shift.
This recorder's clock cannot lose 1 hour on the last Sunday in October even if you set "Auto" or "Use" at step 5, unless it
once gained 1 hour in April.

may take longer time for power to turn off.)
• If you set "Summer Time (Daylight-Saving time)" to "Auto" and "Time Zone" to "Manual", a small time discrepancy may occur
around the hours of DST start/end.
