Automatic Daylight Saving-Time (D.S.T.) Adjustment
This VCR is equipped with an internal Automatic Daylight Saving-Time Adjustment function. In spring (first
Sunday in April) and autumn (last Sunday in October), the time is adjusted as shown below. This function has
been preset to ON at the factory. Set the D.S.T. mode in the clock setting screen.
Spring
Programmed timer recording set within this time frame (2:00
AM to 3:00 AM) will not be carried out.
First Sunday in April (D.S.T. is ON)
1:00 AM
• If the timer recording programme is affected by the D.S.T. time change, check your TV listing and find out when it reflects
the time change. Some TV listings will indicate the time change in the same manner as is programmed in this VCR, but
others do not show the time change until the next morning. In that case, when programming a timer, use the CLOCK screen
to set the D.S.T. mode to OFF so the time change will not be carried out.
