Dst And Utc, Gmt - Safran SecureSync 2400 User Manual

DST and UTC, GMT

Neither UTC, nor GMT ever change to Daylight Savings Time (DST). However,
some of the countries that use GMT switch to a different time zone offset during
their DST period. The United Kingdom is not on GMT all year, but uses British
Summer Time (BST), which is one hour ahead of GMT, during the summer
months.
Additional information about regional time zones and DST can be found on the
following web sites: http://www.worldtimeserver.com/,
