AUTO
CLOCK SET
The Auto Clock Set feature
is set to ON at the factory. In the ON
setting, the VCR looks for a channel carrying XDS (Extended Data
Services) information.
XDS updates the clock automatically
using
the Coordinated
Universal Time.
To use this feature,
certain steps are required such as Auto
Channel Search, setting the time zone, and setting the daylight
saving feature before the Auto Clock feature works.

Select your time zone, then press MENU to continue.
If you chose AUTOMATIC for your time zone, the VCR sets the
clock using the first Coordinated
Universal Time information
it finds. If the time is not correct, select another
time zone or
manually set the time and date through
the menu system.
Auto Clock Information
With a cable box, the VCR will not
reset the clock after a power outage
unless the cable box is set to the
channel carrying the XDS signal.
If AUTO CLOCK SET is unsuccessful,
try tuning the VCR (or cable box) to
a channel carrying the broadcast
information (usually PBS), then turn
the VCR off. If the time does not set
within 10 minutes, set the time and
date manually through the menus.
Check your local cable system or TV
stations for availability of channels
with XDS.
