SETTING AND VIEWING
THE LOCAL TIME

Your receiver has two clocks. One dis-
plays your local time and the other lets
you display the time in any of 42 preset
world cities or a world city you specify.
Once you set your local time, the re-
ceiver automatically calculates the cor-
rect time in each of the preset world
cities or a world city that you specify
and lets you select and display that
time.

The time zone map on the back of the
receiver shows the difference in hours
between UTC (Universal Time Coordi-
nate formerly called Greenwich
Mean Time) and each time zone. To
determine your local time from UTC,
add or subtract the specified number
from UTC time. During Daylight Saving
Time, add one more hour.

The clock display shows a random
time when you install batteries. Follow
these steps to set the local time in the
24-hour format (0:00 – 23:59).
