Switching on and setting the clock
Before setting the clock make sure that the local time zone is known.
There are 24 time zones based on a standard time zone called the UTC
(Universal Time Co-ordinated), previously known as GMT (Greenwich
Mean Time), as shown in the diagram on the back of the receiver.
Two different local times can be set, local time '1' and local time '2'.
Setting local time 1
When the receiver is first switched on the display indicates that the clock
has to be set. The digital display will show '0:00' and the local time '1'
symbol will be shown.
Note: If you are operating the receiver in the 12-hour format, AM and
PM can be set by pressing the Memo AM/PM button.

have been inserted correctly, or if using mains power, plug the mains
