Helpful Hints
There are four ways to set the VCR’s clock: Manually, with Time
Zone Selection, with Manual PBS Channel Selection, or with
Automatic PBS Channel Selection. Cable Box/DBS users must set
the clock manually. Before you set the clock, make sure:
• The VCR power is on.
• The VCR light appears on the display panel. If it does not, press
the VCR/TV button once.
• Channels are set up. Details are on page 12.
• You make each entry within one minute of the previous entry.
To set the clock manually, follow the steps on pages 14-15. To use
Time Zone Selection, go to page 16. To use Manual PBS Channel
Selection, go to page 17. To use Automatic PBS Channel Selection,
go to page 18.
