Setting the Clock

This is easy to do and important for your later timed recordings. You'll need to set the
clock when first hooking up your VCR, and any time the power goes out more than 5
seconds.
When you first plug in the VCR or after a power interruption, the clock display will read
"--:--".
To set the clock, press GUIDE, then press 6 to bring up the Clock Set screen:
Press the number buttons on the remote control to set the current time - two digits for
the hour and two for the minutes. Then press 1 or 2 for AM or PM, respectively.
For example, if it is now 2:15 PM, press 0, 2, 1, and 5 for hours and minutes, and press
Internal or external antenna
Ordinary cable
Alternate cable (if CATV1 doesn't give you the channels you expect)
