I'm still having trouble toggling between the day, month, and year during initial setup. If I press the center button, it goes to time. Help?

I struggled with this too until I realized you actually have to keep pressing up to increment the date day by day, through the months and years 'til you arrive at today. If you just hold the button, it moves much more quickly, of course.

If you keep pressing the up button it will automatically increase the month and year as well as the day. Just continuously press down so it will increase the date at a faster rate.

I had the same problem!!!! Don't try to "toggle" just keep scrolling forward and when the day gets to "31" (for instance 31/1/15) instead of starting over again (and reading 1/1/15... Remember: it goes dd/mm/year) it will read 1/2/15 (aka go from January 31 to February 1)Definitely takes longer since you can't toggle between day month and year, but I was glad to finally figure it out bc it was drivinge nuts!! :)

Yes I had that problem too. You have to hit the putting hundreds of times to go through each day individually. I hope that helps.

Start with menu, scroll to date/time. The good thing is when you set the time on one hand set, the others are set too.

Sorry I threw away the directions. But you can play around with it and figure it out. I think you push and hold the top button until you get hours and you go to the bottom button to set the hour. Push the top button again to get minutes and then set the minutes with the bottom button. Continue to set the day and month.

OK, I just found and changed the AUTO SET and the DST settings. I hope that does the trick. Thanks for the tip!

I had that problem for a long time until I finally figured out that I had to set the date and time absolutely correctly according to the directions in the instruction book. Use the instructions exactly to reset date and time--always use the 0 before dates like the 5th: 05, for example. Although the display may look right without the two digits for each entry, your answering machine won't give the right time and date. Follow the instructions exactly and it will solve your problem. This drove me crazy until I figured out I had to set it precisely as instructed in booklet.

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?

Use the menu to set the date & time. As with all electronic devices it's weird. Trial & error is the way to go.

It does. I've never used it, but there is a button you push for time and date.

when I changed the time and date I followed a youtube video showing step by step. Try that, good luck.

Yes my daughter gets very frustrated she had to deal with the time and date every time and can't get right to playtime. I've looked at the settings and can't figure out why it started doing this.

Actually I just now looked at it. hit the clock/calendar key to go to date or time to set. Then hold down the time set (equal key) until the first digit blinks on the readout. Then set either the time or date setting you earlier had selected. When done hit the time set (equal key) again.

Looking at the face there is a button on the left side that toggles between C and F. Hope that helps. If you set it on F it will stay on F until you toggle to C.
