Auto clock setting

The Auto Clock function will automatically set the built-
in clock (Month, Day, Year and Time) when the DVD/
VCR is connected to an Antenna or Cable system and it
is turned off. As the DVD/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.
1
Connect the Antenna or Cable system.
• If you use a cable box, turn it on.
2
Plug the AC Power cord to the AC outlet.
3
Make sure the DVD/VCR is turned off.
• If you press STANDBY/ON, the Auto Clock set is not
effective.
4
Wait at least 30 minutes and press STANDBY/ON.
5
Press DISPLAY to check the clock on the screen.
6
If the clock is not set, check the Antenna condition. The
Auto Clock may not function properly if the reception condi-
tion is not good.
Auto clock adjustment
The Auto Clock Adjustment will be performed at 6:00 AM, 12:00
PM and 6:00 PM everyday if you turn off the DVD/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.
