Setting the date and time
Automatic synchronisation via RDS
Upon factory delivery time synchronisation via RDS is enabled. If the device
receives an RDS signal after powering on, the date and time are synchronised
and shown correctly after a few moments.
The multi-band radio is only set automatically if the selected station
transmits an RDS signal and the reception quality is strong enough
to receive the RDS signal. If an RDS signal is received, the RDS
indicator (28) appears on the display.
Time synchronisation and the correct time setting also depend on the set time
zone. Therefore it is mandatory to set the correct time zone first. To do so, see
the "Setting the time zone" section above.
Manual setting
First disable automatic time synchronisation via RDS. To do so, while powered
off, press the "MODE" button (15) four times until "TS ON" (Time
Synchronisation ON) appears in the upper part of the display (6). Press the
"VOL-" (12) or "VOL+" (4) button to set it to “TS OFF” (Time Synchronisation
OFF).
Now set the correct time zone.
