IMPORTANT NOTICE

Daylight Saving Time is NOT observed in Saskatchewan as well as other cities In other

provinces across Canada.. Contact your local municipality to confirm whether you

observe this time change.

Beginning in 2007, this SmartSet™ Clock Radio will automatically advance by one hour

at the beginning of Daylight Saving Time on the second Sunday in March. And it will

automatically return to Standard Time on the first Sunday in November. If you live in an

area that does not observe Daylight Saving Time it will be necessary for you to manually

set the clock back one hour at the beginning of Daylight Saving Time, and forward one

hour at the end of Daylight Saving Time. A simple way to do this is to change the TIME

ZONE setting. Set the clock to the next higher numbered time zone at the beginning of

Daylight Saving Time, and set the clock back to your correct time zone at the end of

Daylight Saving Time.
