Tips
You'll need to set the clock when first hooking up your VCR, and any time the power
goes out for more than 1 hour. When you first plug in the VCR or after a power outage,
the clock display will read "--:--".
Auto clock set function
This function sets the VCR's clock automatically when the VCR is tuned to a station
which transmits a time signal together with TV programs.
It also automatically sets the time differences between various time zones and sets the
time during Daylight Saving Time (D.S.T). The auto clock set function operates each
time the VCR is turned off.
• Some broadcast stations may not transmit a time signal. The auto clock set function
does not operate when the VCR is tuned to a station which does not transmit a time
signal. In this case, set the clock manually (See page 20).
• When the clock is set automatically, the displayed time may drift from the current time
by up to one minute.
Setting the clock automatically - if your VCR's hooked up to an
antenna or cable without a cable box (Hookups [A], [B], [C] or [D])
1 Press the POWER button to turn the VCR power off.
If the VCR is already turned off, press the POWER button to turn the power on, then
press it again to turn the power off. The time will appear in the VCR display to show that
the current time has been set. The automatic clock set procedure might take about 5
minutes.
Notes:
• If the clock is not set after about five minutes have elapsed, the clock must be set manually
(see page 20).
• When the VCR power is restored after a power failure of more than one hour, the clock will
indicate "--:--", and the clock set procedure (automatic or manual) must be repeated.
• If the time displayed on the VCR drifts from the current time by more than one hour, select
your correct time zone and set the DST (Daylight Savings Time)(see page 19).
