Clock /time
The unit is equipped with an internal clock
for which the hours and minutes are set via
RDS in order to assure a high degree of
accuracy.
This RDS control is only possible when an
RDS station with CT (clock time) function
can be received.
The automatic adjustment for daylight sav-
ings time can be turned off. Please note that
presently not all RDS stations broadcast a
time signal.
