Clock
This car audio system is equipped within a
built-in clock which automatically takes ad-
vantage of RDS to ensure highly accurate
time-keeping (hours, minutes).
For the clock to function properly with RDS,
an RDS station with the CT function (CT –
clock time) must be within reception range.
The automatic correction of the hours can
be switched off. Please be advised that not
all RDS radio stations currently transmit a
time signal (CT – Clock time).
Setting the clock
a) automatically
The clock is set automatically when the
radio is tuned into an RDS station
which has the “CT” function (clock
time).
b) manually with DSC-CLOCKSET
Press DSC briefly, the menu will ap-
pear in the display. Press
/ as often
as necessary until “CLOCK SET” ap-
pears in the display.
Press << >> to set the hours/minutes.
You can move to a different position by
pressing
/ .
After you have set the clock, press
“DSC” briefly to store the new setting.
Displaying the clock
You can set the clock to permanent display
in both the radio and CD modes.
If another function is selected, the clock dis-
play will disappear for approximately 8 se-
conds and the station selected, for examp-
le, will appear in the display.
To switch the display mode:
Press “DIS” for approximately 2 secon-
ds until you hear a beep.
Correcting the time after the po-
wer has been disconnected
If the radio has been disconnected from its
power source for any length of time, “0:00”
will appear in the display when it is re-con-
nected.
The time will be set automatically by RDS-
CT, but can also be adjusted manually if
desired.
You need only set the time manually if it is
not possible to receive an RDS station with
CT (clock time).
Deactivating the hour correction
function
In the DSC menu it is possible to switch off
the hour correction function with “CLK MAN/
CLK AUTO”. An automatic correction for mi-
nutes will continue to take place.

time for a different time zone, for example.

/ as often as
required until “CLK MAN/CLK AUTO” ap-
pears in the display.
