TIME
AND
DATE
The VCR gives you two
ways to set the time
and date: the
Auto
Clock Feature
or manually.
The Auto
Clock Feature
enables
the VCR to update
the clock each time the VCR is
turned
off. The Auto
Clock is advantageous
because
it
updates
the time
for you automatically.
Before
you set the time
and date, set the Auto
DST
(Daylight-Saving
Time) feature
to ON or OFF for your
area.
AUTO
CLOCK SET FEATURE
The Auto
Clock Set feature
is set to ON at the factory.
In
the ON setting,
the VCR looks for a channel
carrying
AIISet
data. AllSet
data updates
the clock using the Coordinated
Universal
Time. To use this automatic
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.

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 AtlSet 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 AIISet time data.
