Setting the Clock
Your deck has a built-in clock to keep track of the
current date and time. Once you set the date and time
by the menu settings, this information will be recorded
on the tape along with the audio signal during
recording, allowing you to check the recording date
time of the tape during playback at a later time.

Notes
When you first set the clock after unpacking the deck,
“ ’-- -- -- -- “ will appear when you press the SET button in
step 3. This is normal. Set the clock according to the
procedures above.
Your deck uses a back-up battery to keep the clock
running when the power is turned off. The life of the
battery under normal use is approximately seven years.
When the battery starts to run down, the clock will stop
operating normally. When this occurs, have the battery
replaced (for a fee) at your dealer or nearest Sony Service
Center .
