Auto Clock Set Feature; Setting The Time Zone - GE VG4270 User Manual

Auto Clock Set Feature
The Auto Clock Set feature is set to ON at the factory. In the ON
setting, the VCR looks for a channel carrying XDS (Extended Data
Services) information. XDS updates the clock using a Coordinated
Universal Time standard. There are certain steps that are required,
such as Auto Channel Search, setting the Time Zone and Daylight
Saving feature before the Auto Clock feature works.

Select your time zone.
If you select Automatic for your time zone, the VCR sets
the clock using the first Coordinated Universal Time
information it finds. If the time is not correct, select
another time zone or set the time and date through the
menu system.
Auto Clock Information
With a cable box, the VCR will not
reset the clock after a power outage
unless the cable box is turned on to
the channel carrying the XDS signal.
If AUTO CLOCK SET is unsuccessful,
try tuning the VCR (or cable box) to a
channel carrying the broadcast
information (usually PBS), then turn
the VCR off. If the time does not set
within ten minutes, set the time and
date manually through the menu.
Check your local cable system or TV
stations for availability of channels
with XDS.
