DAYLIGHT SAVING AND LEAP YEAR ADJUSTMENTS

All Daylight Saving and Leap Year adjustments are made automatically by

the SmartSet

internal computer as follows:

• Start of Daylight Saving Time: At 1:59.59 AM on the first Sunday in

April, the clock will automatically advance to 3:00 AM.

• End of Daylight Saving Time: At 2:59.59 AM on the last Sunday in

October, the clock will automatically reset to 2:00 AM.

• Leap Year: At 12:00 Midnight on February 28th, the calendar display

will change to "2. 29"

MANUAL TIME ADJUSTMENTS

Some people like to set their clocks 5 to 10 minutes fast to make sure that they will

always be on time. Even though the unit sets the time by itself, you still have the

option of adjusting the time manually if you wish.

To manually adjust the time display depress and hold the TIME button, and press

either the SKIP FWD/UP or SKIP REV/DOWN buttons to adjust the time display

ahead or back as desired. Each press of the SKIP FWD/UP or SKIP REV/DOWN

buttons will change the display by one minute. If you hold the SKIP FWD/UP or

SKIP REV/DOWN buttons the display will continue to change. The display will

change slowly at first, one minute at a time. But if you continue holding the SKIP

FWD/UP or SKIP REV/DOWN buttons, the display will change rapidly.

Notes:

• If you manually adjust the time, your new setting is entered into the unit memory.

If the power is interrupted, the display will return to your new setting, when the

power is restored.

• You can adjust the time setting while the radio is playing or while the power is

‘Off’, but you cannot adjust the time when the function selector is set to the CD

mode.
