• If you have caller
ID service,
the time will
automatically
be updated
whenever caller
ID information
is delivered.
However, since
the date, rather
than the day, is
delivered, you
have to program
the year once,
so the system
can derive the
appropriate day
of the week.

holding the
CHANGE button
when setting the
time and date
will advance the
minutes or years
by 10.
