Clock Setting
The date (month, day, year) and time must be set before
you can use any of the timer recording features.
The clock can be set automatically if there is a broadcast
station transmitting clock signals, or manually.
Select Auto to set the clock automatically or Manual to

If the time could not be set automatically, press
RETURN to go back to the previous screen and select
Manual.

signals, you can set the clock manually:

time zone, then press ENTER.
• Press (cursor down) then use the / (cursor
left/right) buttons to set daylight saving time (D.S.T.)
On or Off, then press ENTER.
