Yes you can create a set time and save it and use it now and at later date. You can also clear the settings easily

Hi Hillery, Here is how I set the time. Using a pen or something similar press and hold the set button. When numbers begin to flash press the button repeatedly until the hour flashes. Press 'Memo' repeatedly until the hour (and am/pm) is correct. Press 'Set' until the minutes flashes. Press 'Memo' repeatedly until the minutes is correct. Then press 'Set' repeatedly until numbers stop flashing.

If you press "TIME" quickly and let it go, it should start flashing whatever time is on there. Then, while the flashing is going on, press and hold the "Forward Arrow" until it hits the desired hour, at which point you'll stop holding. Then, press and hold the "Backward Arrow" until it hits the desired minute, at which poiknt you'll stop holding. Finally, hit "TIME" once again briefly to hold the proper time, that is, to set the time. Hope that helps.

When it's showing the time (not alarm time), press and hold "Mode" button. Now you can adjust time with "ADJ" button and move between time parameters with "Mode" button.

Best thing you can do is send this clock back. They are all pieces of crap. It isnanshame too because I really liked it. I had no trouble getting mine to set. But unfortunately when I did.....the numbers kept fading in and out. There is a little map on the screen. Just toggle one of the buttons on top till you find the one that darkens the area of the map in which you live. The clock should set itself thereafter as far as the time goes. Hope you have better luck with your than I did mine.

Press and hold the Clock button until it flashes. Enter the time, then press the Clock button again. Let me know if it doesn't work.

The current time is set by spinning the dial and matching the labeled time on the outside dial with the inner marking for current time. You tell it when you want it on and off by pulling the tabs out (to tell it you want the outlets off) and pushing them in (to tell it you want the outlets on). The toggle switch goes between always on and timer mode - the clock is for the timer. I had to use my fingernail to make my timed settings and still had to move the dial around to get all of the timer settings. I then set the current time after that.

Simple. Just push the switch to turn or off manually. It will over ride your time settings.

Yes. We have tried to find a way to change it and can't. Does anyone out here know how to change to standard time?

I don't have mine set to Automatic clock time. I set the time zone and then I set the time. I automatically adjust with the time changes so I don't have to set that again. I've never had luck with the automatic clock time on any unit I've ever used. It always seems to not take time zones into consideration.

sorry, it's been a while since I set the clock, but I do remember that I had to set the analog clock manually (i.e. set it digitally and have the hands then move automatically to match the digitally set time)...You could also try their customer support, however, at the time I was doing my setting-up, they were surprisingly unknowledgeable about this specific model, as it was new.

Janet, I just purchased the same info globe and have the same questions...how can I set the time etc&gt; Alzelin@aol.com thanks

No need to set the time. It gets that info from the internet. You may have to go thru factory reset if you tried to use a cell phone to do the setup. Gotta use a laptop (or tablet according to the instructions) but *NOT* a smartphone.

Previous answers correct but just note that when setting the time it moves in increments of 15 seconds. You can't set specific times beyond that.

I read the Customer Comments first before purchasing and I gambled on it. After getting the watch I also read very carefully of the instruction and I tried not to set ALL immediately and I only set the Time Zone first. Since it is radio controlled so I let the radio to set the time for me. I think it was about an hour or two later the watch set the hands automatically. On the day to Fall Back I did not turn the hands either, instead, I waited until almost 3 a.m. Sunday the radio automatically set the proper time and I did not have to do anything. I really don't remember everything I did, but the "rule" I followed was not to touch on ALL these buttons. Most of us are rather impatient and we want to know it all immediately. When I realized that the Alarm was set at 3 a.m. by the factory I did not rush to change it until I had time to read the instruction and I did just that little. I'm just guessing: If you, Anita, live on the West Coast, why not set your Time Zone to, say, East Coast Time Zone for one day and watch the hands readjust to the East Coast TZ, then a day later change to the Pacific Time Zone and let the radio to adjust the time but don't expect to see the change promptly. Good luck, we have to help each other in this Internet Era Economy. baoedong@yahoo.com
