AUTO CLOCK SETTING
The auto clock function will automatically set the built-in clock (Month, Day, Year and Time) when the TV/VCR is
connected to an antenna or cable TV system and it is turned off. As the TV/VCR searches for a receivable station
in your area and it receives a broadcast signal for auto clock, the auto clock needs several minutes to set itself.
AUTO CLOCK ADJUSTMENT
The auto clock adjustment will be performed at 12:00 PM everyday if you turn off the TV/VCR.
•
If you use a cable box and you want auto clock adjustment to be performed, the cable box must be left on.
•
The auto clock adjustment is not effective when there is a difference of more than 5 minutes exists between
the built-in clock time and the actual time.
