CT (Clock Time)
This displays the current date and time.

Example:
CT auto clock adjustment
The clock setting of this unit can be automatically adjusted
according to the CT data.
By default, automatic clock adjustment is OFF.
o The clock setting of this unit can be also adjusted
automatically according to the clock data of an iPhone.
When you use the RDS CT auto clock adjustment, set
the iPhone clock sync function to off (page 12).
When you set the auto clock adjustment to ON, no
matter which RDS mode is selected, the unit receives
CT data and adjusts the clock. Therefore if you tune in
an RDS station broadcasting incorrect CT data, the clock
might be wrongly adjusted, and that may eventually
affect the timer operation.
