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.
