Spring Forward; Fall Back
In the Spring, daylight-saving time
begins on the first Sunday in April.
Because the clock automatically
changes from 2:00 AM to 3:00 AM
(forward one hour), remember to
include the extra hour for timer
recording falling within this time
frame.
In the Autumn, daylight-saving time
ends on the last Sunday in October.
The VCR clock automatically
changes from 2:00 AM to 1:00 AM
(back one hour). Therefore, it can
affect your recording length.
