A UTO CLOCK SL 171NG
You can have the TV/VCR set the clock automatically
by using the Public Broadcasting Station (PBS) channel
in your area. Once you have set the clock by using the
following procedure, the TV/VCR will automatically
monitor the correct time and date being broadcast by the
PBS station in your area, using a new service called
Extended Data Service (EDS).
Make sure ...
• Turn on the TV/VCR.
• Confirm that the antenna connections are correct.
• The cable converter box must be turned on if your
TV/VCR is connected directly to it. (See NOTES)
• You must use the remote control for the following
steps.
NOTES:
• Auto clock setting only needs to be set once, but can
be done again if the clock's time has become
incorrect for some reason.
• If the TV/VCR is connected directly to a cable
converter box, the local PBS station must be selected
on the cable box itself, andthe TV/VCR must be set
to the output channel of the cable converter box
(usually channel 3 or 4), to be able to set up and
automatically correct the clock.
The TV/VCR cannot control the channels of the
cable converter box.

channels. It must scan each channel for a couple of
minutes to determine if that channel is transmitting
the EDS signal, because the PBS station will send this
signal only once every minute. This search could take
up to 2 hours. You may want to start this channel
search at night when the unit is not in use.

PBS station is incorrect, it may not be your local PBS
station, but one from a different time zone. Or there
is a case that no channel is broadcasting the EDS
signal in your area, as shown by no time being set
even after an overnight search. In these cases, you
must manually enter the correct local PBS station, or
set the clock manually, turning off the Auto Clock
Setting feature.
