Here are some things you should know before you set the clock: -
• When you first plug in your VCR, the clock will read
• The buttons (or setting the clock are on the remote
hand unit.

screen will prompt you through the procedure.
• If you press a wrong digit, press CLEAR repeatedly until
the incorrect digit flashes, and then enter the correct
digit.
• If you enter an illogical time or date (13th month for
example) a question mark will appear instead of the
illogical entry. Simply enter the correct digit to replace
the question mark.
• The clock must be set to the correct time before you
can program the timer for unattended recordings or

• If power is interrupted for an extended period, you will
have to reset the clock and re-enter your programs in
the timer.
