SETTING THE CLOCK MANUALLY
Things to know before starting
• While you are setting the clock, the display
panel on the remote control handset will
prompt you through the procedure.
• Always press “0” before a single-digit hour,
minute, day, month or year.
• If you press the wrong digit during clock
setting, press the CORRECT button repeatedly
until the incorrect digit flashes then enter the
correct digit.
• You have about one minute to complete each
step in the procedure. If you do not proceed to
the next step within this time, all entries are
erased and you must start again.
• The clock must be set to the correct time before
programming the timer for unattended
recording or Instant Recording Timer (IRT).
Notes:
• If you wish to correct the time in the VCR
display after transmitting the information to the
VCR, follow the steps above correcting the
information and transmit it again.
• If the power is interrupted for more than 30
minutes, “– –:– –” will appear in the VCR
display. The time and date will need to be reset.
