the M >> Button. To set the year, press the L 7-5-2 Button. (These buttons will only advance the date forward.) The clock features
a 99-year calendar that automatically programs the correct day of the week for the date set.

Daylight-Saving Time and Leap Years
This unit will automatically adjust the clock at the beginning and end of daylight-saving time each year. It will also automatically adjust
the month/day display for leap years.
This clock automatically advances one hour at the start of daylight-saving time on the first Sunday of April, and automatically moves
back one hour at the end of daylight-saving time on the last Sunday of October. If you live in an area that does not observe daylight-
saving time, it will be necessary for you to manually adjust the clock back one hour at the beginning and forward one hour at the end
of the daylight-saving period.
Adjusting the Display Backlight
This clock radio features a "rainbow-like" clock display, providing a spectrum of color. When the clock radio is plugged in, the color of
the display will constantly change from one color to another. When the desired color appears on the display, press the 5 Color Select
Button once to select that color. The display will stop changing colors.
You may change the display color anytime by pressing the 5 Color Select Button to re-activate the color variation. Press the button
again when the desired color appears on the display.
Note: To adjust the brightness to dim, medium or bright setting, press the 7 Snooze/Dimmer Bar repeatedly until the desired brightness
is reached.
