Cable Box Setup – This setup applies only when all channels
are received through a cable box. In this case, the VCR will
default to the channel used to view cable box programming
during timer recordings.

cable box (usually 03 or 04), or if A/V jacks connect the VCR to
the cable box, press the INPUT button on the VCR’s remote
control.

and date information instead of using the Auto Clock Set feature.

number buttons on the remote to enter the information — you
must press 0 before single digits (for example, 03/17/02 for
March 17th, 2002).

press the 2 button repeatedly to switch
between on and off. If you turn Auto Clock off, you’ll need to
manually set the time and date in order for the VCR’s recording
features to work. (Only available in some areas.)

menu is on the screen, use the number buttons on the remote to
enter the information.
If you select Automatic for your time zone, the VCR sets the
clock using the first time information it finds from the broadcast
signal. If the time set is not correct, select another time zone or
set the time and date through the menu system.
Set Daylight Saving – adjust this setting to allow for daylight
saving time (DST).
If you choose Automatic for the time zone, the VCR sets the
clock using any DST information broadcast in the channel’s
signal.
