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