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 1 hour.
When you first plug in the VCR or after a power outage, 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
2 for PM.
Continue pressing buttons to set the date. For example, if today is July 8, 1994, press 0,
7, 0, 8, 9, and 4 to get 07/08/94.
When you're done, press GUIDE twice to return to regular viewing.
