The internal clock time (local date and time) is maintained accurately using the received time (Greenwich mean time) and time zone when the time
is received by the built-in GPS. Check the time zone setting again if the time zone setting is not correct, such as the [DATE] and [TIME] display is
different from the local time. (It is not necessary to reset [DATE] and [TIME].)
t The accuracy of the clock is approximately ±30 seconds per month. Check and reset the time when accurate time is required.
