TIME ZONE OPTIONS
Time zones around the world are identified by how many hours they
are offset from the Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). US time zones are
5 to 10 hours behind the Greenwich Mean Time. The main unit is pre-
set to Pacific Standard Time (PST). Adjust the GMT Difference
according to which time zone you live in order to obtain accurate time
from the U.S. Atomic Clock ( p.18).
The U.S. Atomic Clock automatically adjusts for Daylight
Savings during the year. However, if Daylight Savings is not
applicable in your area, you may instead want to manually
set the time and disable the U.S. Atomic Clock ( p.18).
