Time and Date
Your VCR gives you two ways to set the time and date; manually
or by using the Auto Clock Set
feature. Using Auto Clock Set enables the time to be updated
when the VCR is turned off. It
updates information
by using data carried in certain broadcaster's
signals.
Auto Clock Set Feature
The Auto Clock Set feature is set to ON by default at the factory. In the ON setting, the VCR
looks for a channel carrying time data and updates
the VCR automatically.
In order for Auto
Clock Set to work properly,
certain steps must first be completed
such as Auto Channel Search,
setting the time zone, and setting the Daylight-Saving
feature.
Notes: Auto Clock Set is available
only in limited
areas.
You must set available channels, time zone, and Daylight-Saving settings for Auto Clock Set
to work.
If time and date information
cannot be found, tune the VCR (or cable box) to a channel
carrying such data (usually PBS), then turn the VCR off. If the clock does not set within
10
minutes,
set the time and date manually
in the TIME menu.
Check your local cable system or TV stations for availability
of channels with time data.
When using Auto Clock Set with a cable box, the VCR will not reset the clock after a power
outage
unless the cable box is tuned to the channel carrying time data.
