DST in 2007

March 15, 2007

At 2 a.m. Sunday, March 11, 2007, Daylight Saving Time (DST) started three weeks

earlier than usual in a federally mandated effort to save energy.

At this time, the Stiletto 10 and 100 will not be able to automatically compensate for this

recent change. If you live in a time zone which observes DST the time on your Stiletto

will be one hour behind until April 1st, the previously observed beginning of DST. On

April 1st, 2007, the time setting on the unit will be corrected.

In general, your device will continue to operate normally during the brief period the time

setting is incorrect. There will be no impact to your ability to receive programming or use

the LOVE function. However, the incorrect time will be displayed and previously

scheduled recordings will not start on time.

To temporarily overcome these issues follow the instructions below.

Setting Stiletto to Display the Correct Time

You may set your Stiletto to display the correct time by temporarily adjusting the time

zone. From the Home menu, select the Settings>Device Settings>Time Zone.

Choose the neighboring time zone to the east of your local time zone and press Select.

If your local TZ is… From Mar 11 thru -

April 1st set TZ to…

Pacific Mountain

Mountain Central

Central Eastern

Eastern Atlantic

REMEMBER: On or after April 1, 2007 you will need to set your Stiletto back to your

actual local time zone to display the correct time.

Resetting Scheduled Recordings

After adjusting your time zone all of your previously scheduled recordings will need to

be reset to start at the correct time. That is because when you adjusted the time zone

each Already Scheduled recording automatically adjusts to start 1 hour later. To avoid

missing your scheduled recordings you must manually reset each previously scheduled

recording to start 1 hour earlier.

To do this, from the Home menu, select Recording>Already Scheduled.

Open each scheduled recording and scroll to “Start Time”. Press select and reset the

start time one hour earlier. Press select,

Scroll to “Done” and press select again.

Repeat this procedure for each of your Already Scheduled recordings.

REMEMBER: On or after April 1, 2007 you will need to reset each of the already

scheduled recordings back one hour after resetting your time zone back to your local

time zone.
