DATE DISPLAY
The correct month and date appear in the small display. The month and date are
expressed numerically in the MM/DD format. For example, May 21st will be displayed
as (5. 21). This display adjusts automatically for months of different lengths. For
example, at midnight on February 28th (2. 28), the display will automatically change
to March 1st (3. 1), unless it is a Leap Year, in which case the display will change
to February 29th (2. 29).
